There’s been an awakening. No, it’s not the Force. It’s the digital version of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which hit streaming platforms today ahead of the home video release on April 5. Now writer/director J.J. Abrams’s newest adventure in the galaxy far, far away can be enjoyed wherever your little heart desires, like on your desktop, smartphone, or tablet. But just in case you don’t have time right now to relive all two glorious hours of The Force Awakens, we figured we’d give you the best moments of each of the movie’s newest characters all in one place. Because this is the internet, the best (and only) way is in GIF form.

First up is Daisy Ridley as Rey, the newest lead character in the Star Wars universe and the newest Jedi to-be. Ridley was a relative newcomer to blockbuster filmmaking, but she made her character’s improbable journey from desert planet scavenger to Luke Skywalker’s newest apprentice (we hope) look as easy as performing Jedi mind tricks on unsuspecting stormtroopers on Starkiller Base.
