Just in case you’ve been living under a rock, a new Star Wars: The Last Jedi trailed debuted today. It’s 2 and a half minutes of pure goodness, but it was a little three second snippet that caught my attention and obviously many other people’s attention too.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m a massive Star Wars fan but I’m definitely not as deep into the lore and characters that most people are. However, these cute little Porgs (basically at least one of them seems to be Chewbacca’s pet) have inhabited the island that Luke has been stuck on for years.
I knew as soon as I saw it pop up that the internet was going to go wild for them and I haven’t been disappointed.
Stop pretending you hate Porgs. You love 'em. They're your favourite thing in fact. Porg Porg Porg Porg. Porg Porg. pic.twitter.com/iQcxpFeuF0
