Edit: Had to add this! I just watched a bit of ROTJ with the ‘Tamil’ Dub,
only the “Vader arrives” part. Damn, they got a creepy guy to do Vaders
voice! I thought the lip syncing by the Commander looked real good too!

If you’re already watching with the Tamil dub, go ahead and watch a bit more. It is by far the weirdest dub I’ve found. In particular, the “heavy breathing” by any character who’s onscreen not saying anything, and the fact that some of the Ewok lines are dubbed… either in Tamil or in a nonsense language by Tamil voice actors, I can’t tell which. Also watch Empire for snatches of English phrases spoken by the Tamil speakers, such as Luke telling R2 to shut up, or Han telling Luke “I hate you” after Leia kisses Luke. Seriously, it’s wild. I wish we had the whole thing.
