What do internet trolls, spoiler jihadi and Stephen Colbert all have in common? They're all trying to spoil Star Wars: The Force Awakens! Or are they? Star Wars mega fan Stephen Colbert debuted what he calls "spoiler spoilers" on his Twitter feed during Wednesday's Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and is asking fans to join him.
Apparently due to his busy schedule, Colbert will not be able to see the new film until well after its stateside release Thursday. With advanced tickets being sold out for weeks in most places, plenty of fans are in the same boat.
Colbert's solution? Post as many "spoiler spoilers" as possible using the hashtag #SpoilerSpoilers to hopefully combat any real spoilers making their way around the internet.
On his Twitter feed, he tells fans:
Our only defense against Star Wars spoilers is flooding the national conversation with fake ones. So here are my #spoilerspoilers:

Colbert then proceeds to post several spoiler spoilers of his own:
There's a scene where Chewbacca gets into some dark chocolate and has to spend the night at the vet. #spoilerspoilers — Stephen Colbert (@StephenAtHome) December 17, 2015
That tri-blade lightsaber turns out to be able to talk. Its catchphrase: "Hey! I'm lightsaberin' here!" #spoilerspoilers — Stephen Colbert (@StephenAtHome) December 17, 2015
Samuel L. Jackson comes back to life as Mace Windu and exclaims, "What's in your wallet?" #spoilerspoilers — Stephen Colbert (@StephenAtHome) December 17, 2015
Once everyone finds out they're delicious, the Ewoks are hunted to extinction. #spoilerspoilers

His last tweet is a call to action to other fans of the Star Wars universe not wanting to be spoiled:
Now it's your turn. Go forth and spread these rumors and make up your own #spoilerspoilers. Chewie shoots first! — Stephen Colbert (@StephenAtHome) December 17, 2015
Some of the fun "spoilers" fans have come up with include: Rey (newcomer Daisy Ridley) actually being Michelle Tanner from Full House in an alternate reality, the Millenium Falcon turning Transformers-style into Optimus Prime, Han Solo finding out he has a twin brother and thus needing to henceforth be called Han Duo and more.
