Someone has constructed a Guardians of the Galaxy-style trailer for the Star Wars Trilogy: [![](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TLyNMSkTiGg/hqdefault.jpg "Star Wars (Guardians of the Galaxy Style Trailer!)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLyNMSkTiGg) You know, just in case we forget how much editing can have an influence on the way a movie comes across in a trailer. ---

Here’s another one and she is longer. I’m getting to the point where I feel like I’m seeing too much of this. We’re less than two weeks away and I feel like I’ve seen so many pieces already. I hope they’re holding back on more of the good stuff. [![]( " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzI-U1Fh9zc) ---

> [@Intergalactic\_Gladiator](#): > > I’ve seen the trailer about a dozen times by now and I think this is going to be good. How can you not cheer for a gun toting raccoon? Unless it’s in your trashcans, I guess. I live in Toronto. For those that live here … a gun toting racoon cuts a little close to home. 😃 ---
