Yes. At my local theater, they showed TPM trailer before and after Meet Joe Black.

Oh make no mistake, they're illegal. That said, Lucasfilm is aware of their existence and consider them to be such a non-threat to their bottom line that they don't really care. They know what site they're originating from and could've shut them down years ago, but they haven't. Given how litigious Lucasfilm can be, I think that says something. Buy a copy of the official releases to go with them and you should be able to sleep at night.
. Given the studios' peculiar aversion to including mono and the endless clusterfuckery that Hong Kong fans have tried so hard to fix, there are all kinds of interesting ones out there too. I sold my DVDs of the SEs, so all I have left are my panned-and-scanned VHS copies.
The annotated screenplays are ok, but the Rinzler books are like all of the best parts of the annotated screenplays and so, so, so much more. Anyone who's a a fan of the original trilogy owes it to themselves to grab all three. Just make sure you have a nice, sturdy coffee table. They're pretty beastly.

I could see the full first trailer being attached to Avengers 2. Disney property and about 6 months before the film is released.
Not sure if it has happened but what if another studio pays Disney to allow them to attach the movie to their film. Yes, it advertises a rival studio's film but they know their film will get a boost of ticket sales due to the trailer itself.

Back when there were prints 
. Nowadays you can watch trailers until your eyes fall out online, so it isn't that big a deal anyway.

I remember the first HD trailers were Batman Begins and Serenity way back in 2005. 4k trailers might become the new HD standard someday.

The Hollywood Reporter put out an interesting article about the unprecedented lengths the studio went to in order to keep the film on lockdown (even getting the British government to shut down the airspace over Greenham Common and attempting to buy a drone shield to alert them of potential UAV photography:

My favorite part of the article is the bit concerning the guy who climbed a tree to take set pictures and then refused to climb down for three hours after a production manager showed up with some policemen.

Then, in a few short months, their cheers turned to sobs and they'd bitch for over a decade.

And restarting your computer took like 15 minutes at a time. Conservatively.

Strange cause the Falcon doesn't shoot from there unless there is someone up there manning the guns.

so how fit is Carrie Fisher now? Cuz I keep seeing some photos that are "more recent" but still looks heavy.
