Here’s a treat for you Star Wars fans: The Continuing Adventures of Benjamin Kenobi, Space Knight of the Future! is a trailer for the upcoming Revenge of the Sith
— if it had been made as part of one of those old black-and-white
sci-fi serials in the 1950’s. It uses footage from the trailer for
Revenge of the Sith with the colour removed, overlaid with retro trailer graphics, a cheesy
Republic/RKO pictures score and funny 50s-ish reworkings of the characters,
such as :
- Sammy Jackson Jnr. as Negro Space Knight!
- Boris McDiarmivoch as Dr. Sidious, Evil Sith Lord from Mars!
- …and introducing Harry Chryshner as Faithful Sidekick, Kit Skyranger…or is he?
- Battles using the Space Kinghts’ weapon: the indestructible Lazer-Sword™!
It’s about 7 MB and in QuickTime format.
