It's finally happening, folks! We now live in a world where a select few have seen Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Earlier tonight the world premiere of The Last Jedi took place in Los Angeles at the Shrine Auditorium and the film was shown to attendees soon after. As soon as the film ended the social media embargo for the film was dropped, which means a flood of reactions have cascaded through twitter over the past few minutes.
So far the general consensus has been overwhelmingly positive. Some reviewers even suggested The Last Jedi could dethrone The Empire Strikes Back as the "best" of the saga. Below we have collected a huge swath of tweets showcasing SPOILER FREE reactions from those that saw the film. If you're interested to hear what people are saying already about The Last Jedi, scroll down...

HOLY BALLS!!! Rian crushes it. Dear God, I hope I pick this tweet. It means #TheLastJedi made me feel like a kid again. HELLS YEAH!!!
There’s a scene in #StarWars #TheLastJedi that I keep playing over and over in my head, that is so stunning and unexpected that I don’t want to forget how I felt seeing it for the first time. This movie feels unlike any other Star Wars movie in all the ways I hoped. pic.twitter.com/zlDW4yOjp2— Terri Schwartz (@Terri_Schwartz) December 10, 2017

Guys. @rianjohnson has made the most epic, emotionally powerful @starwars film ever. Hands down. My strong advice is to be very wary of spoilers. The less you know about #TheLastJedi, the better. Bravo, bravo, bravo.— Clayton Sandell (@Clayton_Sandell) December 10, 2017
I just saw #StarWars #TheLastJedi and holy hell is it a masterpiece in a lot of insane ways. I think the standout factor is @rianjohnson’s A+ direction. There has never been a Star Wars Movie like this.— Conner Schwerdtfeger (@ConnerWS) December 10, 2017
IT DOES NOT GET BETTER THAN STAR WARS THE LAST JEDI!!!!!!— robertliefeld (@robertliefeld) December 10, 2017

Whoa #TheLastJedi!. Filled with epic space battles and gorgeous cinematography. It satisfied my love for Star Wars in so many ways. I can't wait to see it again. Also heading to the store to buy Porgs merch. Thank you @rianjohnson— Wendy Lee Szany (@WendyLeeSzany) December 10, 2017
Star Wars #TheLastJedi was different, unfamiliar at times, but in the best way possible...one of the most story rich, complicated, exciting adventures we have ever seen!— SWNN (@StarWarsNewsNet) December 10, 2017
Guys. @rianjohnson has ALREADY made his #StarWars trilogy. He just put it all in the same movie, that’s all. #TheLastJedi— Chris Taylor (@FutureBoy) December 10, 2017
The Last Jedi is incredible. Character at the forefront, amazing action and so so so much emotional payoff decades in the making. I will be watching this one a lot. pic.twitter.com/KVOjLhwk27— Eric Vespe (@EricVespe) December 10, 2017
Oh! Last thing: #StarWars #TheLastJedi has one of my favorite lightsaber sequences in the history of Star Wars fiction in any medium— Conner Schwerdtfeger (@ConnerWS) December 10, 2017
I am STUNNED by #StarWars #TheLastJedi. I gasped, I laughed, I screamed, I cried and I had the time of my life. Rian Johnson pulled it off, making what might be the best Star Wars movie ever. pic.twitter.com/0VE5M90dsH— Joshua Yehl (@JoshuaYehl) December 10, 2017
Wow. I just don’t know what to say.— Jeff D Lowe (@JeffDLowe) December 10, 2017
I don’t even want to give a real reaction. GO SEE IT IMMEDIATELY ON THURSDAY NIGHT.#TheLastJedi #StarWars pic.twitter.com/dfcxYHApst
What @rianjohnson has done will probably go down as one of the all time fan-favorite accomplishments in this franchise. #StarWars #TheLastJedi— Daniel Alter (@DAlter007) December 10, 2017
Not only are Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill at their very best as Leia and Luke in this movie, but Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver blow Rey and Kylo Ren out of the park. I didn’t expect where those characters went and it’s my favorite part of the movie. #TheLastJedi— Terri Schwartz (@Terri_Schwartz) December 10, 2017
I'll have a #TheLastJedi reaction for you in about 6 or 7 years after I can finally process and unpack everything I just saw— Ash Crossan (@AshCrossan) December 10, 2017
THAT MOVIE WAS EVERYTHING— Jenny Nicholson (@JennyENicholson) December 10, 2017
Luke was right: "This is not going to go the way you think." #TheLastJedi will shatter you - and then make you whole again. pic.twitter.com/PJyYpH5loP— Anthony Breznican (@Breznican) December 10, 2017
Carrie Fisher has some unforgettable moments as Leia. @HamillHimself is crushing as a Luke who's more broken and lost than your action figures from the '70s. #TheLastJedi— Anthony Breznican (@Breznican) December 10, 2017
I’m stunned.— Bryan Young (@swankmotron) December 10, 2017
It was everything you expected and nothing you expected.— Bryan Young (@swankmotron) December 10, 2017

A masterclass by @HamillHimself #thelastjedi— James Viscardi (@JimViscardi) December 10, 2017
Every single shot serves a purpose and #thelastjedi is easily the funniest #starwars film. And that is a fantastic thing.— James Viscardi (@JimViscardi) December 10, 2017
#TheLastJedi is everything you LOVE about STAR WARS— Brian Lynch (@BrianLynch) December 10, 2017
