Three new posters for Star Wars: The Force Awakens were released Friday with just three weeks before the official release of the film, making their debut on IGN. The posters forego any and all imagery in favor of simple quotes.
They're directly based off posters scene for the original film back in 1977 (in fact, two of them only change the logo and one word), but they're still a lot of fun.
A large part of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens marketing campaign has been one of nostalgia, from the first shot of the Millennium Falcon, to Han Solo's "Chewie, we're home" line and the constant reminder that the film will use many practical effects. These posters further link it directly to the original trilogy.
Check out the full posters in the gallery below, and see Star Wars: The Force Awakens on December 18, 2015.
