So, Star Wars fans, was it worth it?
Wait, dont answer that; we know what youre going to say. The final trailer for The Force Awakens premiered last night duringMonday Night Football, instantly turning a pretty terrible NFC East game between the Giants and Eagles into a genuine pop culture event. And while we didnt get any of the exciting bells and whistles promised by a Redditor named DatESPNGUY thanks for nothing, dude were willing to bet you, the diehard Force fan, didnt mind. Because the trailer was fucking awesome.
But what did bother many Star Wars obsessives was the fact that they had to sit through an entire first half of turnover-filled, low-octane football (trust us, guys, most games arent like this) before the trailer debuted. And while watching Eli Manning and Sam Bradford exchange interceptions is nobodys idea of a good time, neither wasAttack of the Clones and we all made it through that (relatively) unscathed.

This game is to NFL football what Jar Jar Binks was to @StarWars.

#Eagles fans, rejoice in a win. Everyone else, the #NFL could have just started a garbage fire and moved straight to the Star Wars trailer.

It didnt take long for Star Wars fans to move on from football, though. While tickets were expected to go on sale within anhour of the trailers debut, Fandango got a head start on the competition by opening their online store early. Sure, they almost immediately experienced crashes and loading issueswhich sent fans everywhere into a frenzy, but you know what they say about patience its a virtue, or something. Someone tell Chip Kelly.
