Star Wars VII: Return of the Empire

Here's a cute little Star Wars fan-film I was going to post this weekend but never got around to doing. It's not that funny but they did a pretty nice job editing the new footage with the original movie stuff. I mean it's not the original movie stuff, it's clearly the Blu-Ray edition.EVERYTHING I SAID WAS WRONG! It's all original footage, which I would have noticed if I hadn't watched it on my phone and makes me feel like a terrible nerd. I'll freely admit, I have watched the special editions once and the Blu-Ray's zero times. I have the unedited versions on DVD and those are pretty much the only versions I will watch, so somehow I missed that all of this was fan made. Which makes it a lot better than I had given it credit for.

All hail anonymous commenter for correcting me!

I imagine in the lead up to Episode VII we'll see a lot more of these. Hell, you can probably do better special effects on an iPhone than they had in the original trilogy. It's actually kind of amazing to me that there aren't more independent sci-fi movies these day. Or maybe there are, what am I some kinda guy with time to watch movies? I just got around to watching John Carter yesterday and that's only because I was stuck at home for a couple hours waiting for a guy to come over and fix my gutters.

BTW, John Carter was rad. I can't believe Disney couldn't figure out a way to make money off it.
