I know. I know.

I was supposed to hold off all of the Star Wars news until the monthly report on the 4th, but some things are just too incredible not to share. Trust me, with this weekend's Star Wars Celebration Europe and the upcoming Comic Con, there will be plenty to showcase on August 4.

The incredible too awesome not to post information that we just got on Rogue One is actually two-fold. We got the first official teaser poster which you can see over to the right and we got a three-minute sizzle reel that is overflowing with amazing new footage.

Between the sizzle reel and the trailer, there's no doubt that Rogue One is the top film on my most excited to see list for the rest of 2016. What do you think? The actual attendees at Celebration Europe got to see a new trailer that included the first look at Darth Vader, but that has not been made available online yet.

In case you missed it, here's the teaser trailer for Rogue One released earlier this year. Rogue One is set for release on December 16. So close, yet so far away.
