‘EPISODE VII’ Video: New alien revealed, help children, physical set locations

Okay let’s not be classless and focus on what society totally tells us is the most important part about this video okay okay okay. There’s an opportunity for us all to donate to Star Wars: Force For Change and receive a variety of rewards. But we’ll do it for humanity. Right? Right! OKAYFUCK. Now can I talk about how awesome it is that S7ar Wars is shooting on real sets? And using physical models like we see for its creatures? Am I allowed? FUCK. I’M EXCITED. See it for yourself.

Fresh off the Youtube presses this morning comes this announcement from the folks behindStar Wars. Every ten dollars donated to UNICEF through Disney’s new Star Wars: Force for Change program will be another entry into the sweepstakes, with various dollar amounts unlocking rewards for those who donate. $40? A postcard from J.J. Abrams. $50,000? An advance screening of the movie in your hometown.

But you don’t have to take my word for it. Watch Abrams himself explain it above, with an unusual guest star. [The Mary Sue]
