In a World...No, Somewhere in Space... - Star Wars 1976 Teaser Trailer

"Somewhere in Space, this may all be happening right now..."

This is the original teaser trailer for Star Wars released yesterday on the official Star Wars youtube channel.  It's rough but worth a watch to see the beginnings of what would come. (thank god what came later was so much better)

  "the story of a boy, a girl, and a universe"

As far as we can tell Seth Green and the Robot Chicken crew did not do any Delorean time travelling here.  This is a re-creation of the scene at Comic-Con in 1976 when Star Wars had its first booth/table.  As you well know, the movie had not even come out yet, so this is an interesting moment circa BSW (Before Star Wars),

Some of the details of the scenes are interesting.  "Super 8" in the background reminds of a certain JJ Abrams/Spielberg film only out now..ha. The woman - not in Slave Leia gear - might be the first female fan? haha
