If you've read this far, chances are you're not worried about a silly little SPOILER ALERT or two, right? Let's take a peek at all these little trailers.

Here at the start of December of 2019, we've seen 4 full episodes of the Star Wars streaming live action show The Mandalorian. It started out slow, then it kept on going slow, and it's remained relatively slow through the last couple episodes. This show isn't the bombastic spectacle to which we've grown accustomed with Star Wars movies and cartoons - this is something different entirely.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian, a streaming show on the Disney-based streaming media service Disney+, is a confusing show.

Now it's got parts in red, with stripes, and all sorts of oddities.

No less than documentary voice and living film legend Werner Herzog narrates the final trailer for The Mandalorian. As such, we have no choice but to listen extremely intently to each word, then rewind and watch again. In this trailer, the character which Werner Herzog depicts uses the word "parsec" - and as any deep-tracks-only Star Wars fan knows, the term "parsec" has long been the topic of some discussion with respect to Han Solo's usage of the term in Star Wars: A New Hope.

There's a big trailer release tonight and, if the last Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker trailer was any indication, we're in for a whopper.
