The Honest Trailers team knows just how excited fans are forStar Wars: The Force Awakensto arrive, and even though they had similar expectations beforeThe Phantom Menacepremiered, their latest effort is still filled with plenty of hope for a brighter future.

The Force Awakens honest trailer takes that hope and puts it all behind some new nerd [whos] directing now, as J.J. Abrams entry in theStar Warsseries fixes what George Lucas started.

And midichlorians, the origial trilogy special editions, and Jar Jar Binks are just a few of the things on the long list of what the Screen Junkies crew hopesThe Force Awakenscan make fans forget.
