TheStar Warsmovies may not be far-famed for comedy writing or funny word play , but the serial ' near inner antic has just been made in the puzzler poster forStar Wars : The Rise of Skywalker . Of course , almost no fan will ever notice it .

At first glimpse the idea that ajokeis even possible to hide in the first poster forStar warfare : The Rise of Skywalkermight seem impossible . After all , the teaser bill is simply a black star field with the logo ( blue colored this time ) floating in space , and " December " glue along the bottom to tease the holiday dismissal particular date . But ifStar Warsfans search their flavour , and stopwatching theRise of Skywalkertraileron repeat ,   they will chance on one of the subtlest bill gag in recent computer memory . What better time to honor the Skywalkers than before their " rise " ?

The joke comes from the fact that theRise of Skywalkerposter is basically identical in innovation to the puzzle posters for bothStar Wars : The Force AwakensandStar Wars : The Last Jedi . All with the same logo treatment , month , and only color to distinguish them . Until you have ground to view them in rapid succession , or in a group . Take a look at the caper for yourselves :

It may seem to some as a minor mistake in selling precision , but no such error has been made . The claim intervention for bothThe Force AwakensandThe Last Jediare placed in the identical high - middle quad in the star field – down to thepixel . The same go for the " December " across all three posters . But inThe Rise of Skywalker ’s mystifier even the naked oculus can see that in keeping with its claim and story , the   logo handling itself is … well , uprise .

The marketing department for smash hit films do n’t usually get much credit for a sense of humor or creative sight when it come in to posters using so little to ' announce ' a film . Typically used as placeholder until finished nontextual matter can be fill in for sack , it made sensation for bothThe Force AwakensandThe Last Jedito stay put to a shared chemical formula – adding a sense of tradition and expectation based only on theStar Warsbrand and the inherent secret of the next film ’s title . And while fans may still be wonderingwhatThe Rise of Skywalkertitle really mean , this exquisite bit of sure - to - be - overlooked humor may also urge some hope .

The odds are n’t secure for Rey , Finn , Poe , Rose , or the rest period of the Resistance heroes now thatEmperor Palpatine has repay , and Luke Skywalker is no longer beside them to help economize the day . But if even theposterfor thisfinal chapter in the Skywalker storycan’t serve but rise now that Luke has become one with The Force … maybe everything will work out after all ? sum up the fact that the logo is slightly smaller , as if run onward leaving the spectator behind – and the release month is nowmade wholeas opposed to a insensate wire frame – the movie maker seem to be preparing the audience for in conclusion observe their dear heroes ride off into the sunset . Or whatever the space combining weight might be .
