With no official confirmation from Disney or Lucasfilm that a new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer will premiere at this week's San Diego Comic Con panel, we may have just unlocked a crucial piece of the puzzle and we don't think you are going to like it.
Our spy, J-Wad has been camping out since June 27th, holding the Faking Star Wars teams' places in line outside of Hall H. During the last fews weeks of preparation, J-Wad has been able to obtain details of the SDCC's security detail and most importantly the increased security measures planned for Friday, July 10th - Star Wars Day.
Security will be quadrupled in and around Hall H during the Lucasfilm presentation. The reason being: We are NOT GETTING A NEW TRAILER. Suspicions that the trailer may drop at Disney's D23 event or closer to September when The Force Awakens marketing kicks into high gear seems to be correct.
Extra security is to ensure that no injuries are pertained during the event. Disney and SDCC organizers are well aware that a mob of angry geeks could eat them alive if things turn ugly.
J-Wad also overheard a conversation regarding the San Diego police department lending auxillary units on the day. They have apparently been training all last week inside a Pillsbury factory - testing tazers and billy clubs against rolling masses of dough. Distraction methods will also be deployed for crowd control such as semi-automated Red Bull dispensers and Pringles canisters.
This leaves us wondering what information WILL be revealed at the panel if not a new trailer? Perhaps the poster art? J-Wad is trying hard to get information to spoil the big day. Stay tuned for more SDCC updates.
UPDATE: In addition to the above information, after last night's HasbroGate, in order to avoid less buttheads stomping women and children to get a piece of plastic, SDCC is bringing in even more security in anticipation of a "No Trailer Mafia" riot thread found on Reddit. When will fans learn? If you hurt each other, you only make the laughter easier. Read below for all details on security measures.
