Fan made, but very retro and a tiny bit un-PC. But way cool!
I'll bet most of you won't recognize the music being used.

Classic! And yes, a bit un-PC

I know that music but I can't place where I've heard it from.

I actually have a few Eps on DVD that I found on the "dollar DVD" rack.

Some UHF station where I lived back in '77 ran both Flash and Buck Rogers on the weekends.
Imagine how things would have been different if George had gotten the movie rights to Flash like he originally wanted!

You know if RotS had been released in the forties, it would be considered a classic today. LOL

Anybody notice how the cheesiness of the CGI looks perfect in B&W?

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

It does look quite good, I bet if we made a version of the prequels with that same brownish color and music, they might actually be really good.

!!! That's a discovery worth noting. It also explains why Sky Captain looked so good.

Bossk says the same thing... Hm...

I sense a conspiracy. Anyway, the entertainment value of the film not withstanding, my observation still stands.

THE TRAILER WAS A NICE THROW BACK TO THE 40s. I RECOGNIZED THE FLASH GORDON MUSIC RIGHT FROM THE START. THE ROBBIE THE ROBOT PART WAS A LITTLE TOO LONG THOUGH. ALL-IN-ALL THE GUY DID A GREAT JOB. THE SEPIA TONING WAS FANTASTIC. I EVEN SAVED IT TO MY HARD DRIVE TO SHOW MY FRIENDS.

But why would the Diabolical Sith Lords be from Mars? Mars is in a different Galaxy from Benjamin Kenobi!
