Star Wars Movie Title Prompts Fan Delight, Speculation

May we have a drum roll, please?

Walt Disney Studios has made a major announcement: Star Wars Episode VIII will be titled… THE LAST JEDI!

Wrote the company in a press release:

We have the greatest fans in this or any other galaxy. In appreciation of the fans, we wanted them to be the first to know the title of the next chapter in the Skywalker saga: STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI.

As you might expect, it didn"t take long for fans to react to this name. In a mostly positive manner!

Scroll around below for a look at some of the responses and questions spurred on by The Last Jedi revelation…

1. Where’s the Trailer?!?

“Omg Star wars episode 8: the last jedi! I can’t wait for the first trailer.” – @Jedi_RP

2. A Logistical Evolution

“Love how Ep.VII and Ep.VIII titles make a sentence: The Force awakens the last Jedi.” – @BrushYourTeeth

3. Hmmm…

“Jedi is both singular and plural. So this title could have multiple meanings. That makes it even more intriguing. And that red color…” – @StarWarsNewsNet

4. It’s Rey… Right?

“Who is the last jedi? is Rey the last jedi? but the plural for jedi is also jedi so this can refer to more than one jedi.” – @wakandaho

5. No, It’s Finn!

“listen: The Last Jedi Is Finn, The Boy, The Force Sensitive Ex-Stormtrooper. We All Know This. Finn. The Hero. That Boy, Finn.” – @reysolorgana

6. Is It Really the Last?!?

“the last jedi. at last a name! but is this one of those he’s not the last cause he had a kid and then the avatar opens a portal…” – @sophietalia

Toddler Reacts in Crazy Delight to Star Wars Trailer

Look, we"re not about to go there.

We"re not about to say that the girl featured in the following video is the biggest Star Wars fan in the world because we know this is a touchy subject.

We really do not wish to incur the wrath of long-time followers of this beloved franchise.

However, we will say this. And we"ll say it with the utmost confidence:

The girl featured in this video is the cutest Star Wars fan in the world.

Footage has gone viral of her watching the first Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer… and if you think you were excited to get your initial look at this wildly anticipated blockbuster… well…

… just watch the video below.

Courtesy of our friends at My Fanatic, it features a wide-eyed toddler who isn"t just psyched because she"s seeing some cool characters, vehicles and explosions on screen.

This girl knows her stuff. She"s clearly very well-versed on the universe at hand.

Consider the way she screams "MILLENNIUM FALCON" as soon as this ship makes an appearance on screen… and then watch it again and again and again one more time.

Lord knows we did.

The precious Force is very strong with this one and we give her parents mad props for raising her so well. Job well done, Mom and Dad. We"re not joking.
