Watch: Fans Get Taken Hostage By The First Order In Star Wars NYCC Experience


Star Wars: The Last Jedi is almost here, and Lucasfilm is going full blast with the marketing for the second movie in the sequel trilogy. The Star Wars booth at the NYCC has this amazing gimmick where they lockdown the booth full of visitors then they get raided by First Order stormtroopers.

Check it out:

I though Kylo Ren's appearance was cool enough, but the moment he threw the guy against a wall, my jaw just dropped. This was an amazing piece of marketing for the movie, and it's definitely got me pumped for the release of the movie.

Though we still don't know much of the story for The Last Jedi, we do know that Rey will spend a big chunk of the movie training with Luke Skywalker, and that the Resistance will also be in a state of disarray after an attack from the First Order. Finn will also be having his own adventure with new character Rose Tico, and Kylo Ren will be dealing with his personal feelings after the murder of his father.

To be honest, I'm actually fine with just having the latest trailer be the last. I know everyone wants more trailers for the movie, but it's only a matter of time before someone in the marketing team pulls a Spider-Man: Homecoming and spoils the rest of the movie.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi comes out Dec. 15.
