This is clearly one of the most important films of the year, and perhaps our generation, so emotions definitely come into play while watching this new extended trailer. For instance, Boyega, who portrays Finn, a rogue Stormtrooper turned fugitive in the upcoming movie, clearly felt excitement and enthusiasm while watching the trailer.

Clearly these two young stars have more of an emotional attachment to the project, simply because they're working on it. In fact, Ridley has a very brief resume aside from this project. This is easily the most important role of her career!
