Six big moments from Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Comic-Con panel 

The first Ash vs. Evil Dead trailer is ridiculous and gory

panel at Comic-Con to be a big deal, but J.J. Abrams delivered a night that will go down in convention history. At the heart of it all was a simple word he repeated several times during the night: respect. Respect for the source material, respect for the fans, and respect for characters that for everyone in Hall H last night, felt more like family than they ever had before. Here are some of our favorite moments.

Director J.J. Abrams confirmed early on that the next trailer won\'t be ready until the fall (the first two debuted in November and April). In its place we got about three-and-a-half minutes of behind-the-scenes footage, which was shown to Comic-Con attendees and then posted online minutes after the panel ended. Autumn technically begins September 23rd this year, which means we shouldn\'t get our hopes up for a debut at Disney\'s D23 expo in August.

Production update: Right now, Abrams and co. have a cut of the movie and are fine-tuning. The first standalone Anthology film, Gareth Edwards\' Rogue One, will start shooting in three weeks.

New evil empire The First Order has inherited the old Empire\'s star fighters. A red-tinted TIE Fighter — which, yes, looks like the old TIE Fighter with a new paint job — was seen in various states of wear and tear in the behind-the-scenes footage. We also got a glimpse of the Hasbro toy version earlier in the day.

. We may not see his face, however — it looks like Pegg will be fully dressed up as a khaki-colored alien. "My life is now complete," he said in the video.

Adam Driver, Gwendoline Christie, and Domhnall Gleeson — Kylo Ren, Captain Phasma, and General Hux, respectively — came out after the "good guys" (Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, and Oscar Isaac) to give a few new details. Among them: Hux is in charge of the primary First Order base — named Starkiller Base. (For you non-super-nerds, in early drafts of Star Wars, Luke was known as "Luke Starkiller." The name "Starkiller" was also featured in the video game

Starkiller base, huh? So does that mean I\'m canon again? #SDCC2015 #StarWars

The "legacy players" also showed up for the panel. First came Carrie Fisher ("It was a little bit like before, but we looked more melted this time"). Then Mark Hamill ("I hate to tell you guys I took a

Star Wars trivia contest, and I flunked. I can\'t remember what Han Solo was smuggling. Was it jewels? No, it was spices!"). Then, to great applause, Harrison Ford walked out. "I never thought it would come back to bless me instead of haunt me," he said. "I was very gratified when I read the script, because I read something that I thought was really remarkable. Well-written, with some intriguing developments. So I was delighted to be involved."

That\'s certainly one way to end a Comic-Con panel. "Who wants to go see a live

Star Wars concert right now?" Abrams asked, before proceeding to hand out lanyards to

in Hall H (capacity: about 6,500). Then, Stormtroopers led the crowd to a secret location. Seriously.
