Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 8 Incredible New Set Photos You Need To See

5. History Being Made

With so much hype and discussion surrounding Star Wars: The Force Awakens, it's easy to forget just how historic a movie it really is. Sure, it was only slightly over a decade ago that we last had a Star Wars movie (and in that time, there has been almost countless spinoffs in the form of books, TV shows, and video games), but it's this one which a huge amount of fans have been waiting for since their childhoods. After all, for a while there it really didn't seem as if George Lucas had any intention of continuing the stories of the original trilogy's characters on the big screen, and while Disney's announcement of Episode VII was initially met with some scepticism, it's completely changed the direction of the franchise. This seemingly random clapper board is a nice - and quite subtle - reminder of just how big a deal making this movie was.
