It’s a holiday here in the U.S., but in the interest of getting ahead of tomorrow’s big event, here are the best tweets of (almost) the past week.
Stop looking at me that way. I'm not a turkey.

My favorite moment in life is that half second after the 20th Century Fox fanfare when the movie still might be STAR WARS.
— Eric D. Snider (@EricDSnider) November 26, 2014
Yeah, enjoy that… For now. :/
Episode VII and beyond
Trailer? Trailer!
So when Lucasfilm says the #StarWars #TheForceAwakens will be available on Black Friday, do they mean real Friday or Thursday at like 6 pm?
— Bill Kuchman (@billkuchman) November 26, 2014
After much deliberation, I've decided I will not be watching the #StarWars #TheForceAwakens teaser as I want to remain totally unspoiled.
— Jason Ward (@MakingStarWars) November 26, 2014
I hope the Episode VII trailer reveals the plot is about Life Day.

I am really really really excited to see The Force Awakens trailer. But I'm also terrified. Please hold me.
— Nanci (@nancipants) November 27, 2014
This works out great. Get up Friday morning, see the trailer on the big screen. Come home, watch it a billion times. #TheForceAwakens

Can't wait 2 see the chatter around what parts of the teaser people dig the most! An exciting weekend for #StarWars fandom!

Announcement of debut of teaser trailer for #TheForceAwakens was trending on FB all day yesterday. Still is. Nothing can touch Star Wars.

There’s also that rumor about the first spin-off, which led to a disturbning amount of EU-based speculation…
@clubjade @starwars The Kyle and Dash buddy comedy is one of the stand alones.

@clubjade @missingwords Dash & Kyle go UNDERCOVER at the Empire’s Most Elite High School. Hire me. I’m gr8 @ ripping off ideas.

Real talk: I will tap dance on the EU's grave if the new version of the Death Star plan theft doesn't involve like four white dudes.

Exchange of the week
Every time I visit ILM, I sneak in to @rianjohnson's private compound & add characters to his script when he's not looking. #directorpranks
— Duncan Jones (@ManMadeMoon) November 19, 2014
@ManMadeMoon Dude. We've already done the clone wars.
— Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson) November 19, 2014
@ManMadeMoon We should enjoy that kind of pigeonholing while we can- soon it's lightsaber and orc jokes for the rest of our lives

Rebels
Originally, the "Empire Day" two-parter was gonna be split across the hiatus. Aren't you glad they reconsidered? #StarsWarsRebels
— Greg Weisman (@Greg_Weisman) November 27, 2014
A Disney XD spokesperson tells me that #StarWarsRebels will continue to be accessible online a week early, including the Jan. 5 episode.

Hyperspace rainbows. WHAT DOES IT MEAN *gross sobbing* #StarWarsRebels
— Brian (@LaneWinree) November 25, 2014
"Pretty, isn't it?"
"Yeah. I almost feel bad about blowing it up."

So close to a #SWEU quote. :)

Star Wars life
When I was flying last week a TSA agent saw my t-shirt and asked if I was excited about the new Star Wars films. I said yes.

While cleaning, we couldn't find the Maiasaura's Luke figure, only her Mara. Mr. Ginchy says, "Oh, Luke’s off being a hermit." Cute.

Yes, I’m a good parent. Told my son new #StarWars trailer comes tomorrow: “What?! There’s a fourth one?!”

Pretty excited, I heard a way longer version of the STAR WARS VII trailer will be in theaters about a year from now.
— Brian Lynch (@BrianLynch) November 26, 2014
"Force quit" is like the crappest Jedi power ever #StarWars #TheForceAwakens
— Lee Fenton-Wilkinson (@LEEFWDESIGN) November 20, 2014
If they really wanted to be dicks, they'd put THE FORCE AWAKENS trailer at the END of the third Hobbit movie
