Guys, this is incredible.....great actors, beautiful locations, great direction and pacing and of course perfect costumes and props. You should all be very proud.
The locations are spot on and I love all the movie tropes not even all star wars based... amazing film making especially for indie/fan stuff. Hope the creators get jobs in the star wars universe
@@krisrenaldi2602Bahahaha I’m also trying to figure out which part was that moving. Every fan show comment section has its little cluster of “when fans do a better job than DMouse does” peanut gallery. Not gonna lie… I’ve always wanted some back story on what happens to those empire jerks who crash their vehicles and are forced to return to camp on foot with a random prisoner. Pay attention Filoni, Favreau, and Lucas!!!
@@ndaheroson7941 nah, they are kinda as bland as ST characters, Jyn is essentially just force-less rey, team members don't really interact a lot, and for no reason Jyn and Cassian are feeling romantical right when Death Star blows them up.
Kudos to the cameraman for traveling to a galaxy far, far away to film this documentary. It takes real devotion to one’s craft to capture the raw emotion of an interstellar war.
I’m so happy to hear when that hits people (sorry!!) that’s my actual daughter so it hits me too! Haha I’m glad you enjoyed the story and thank you for the kind words.
This has to be one of the most incredible fan films I have ever seen. The acting was on point, the story was well written, and the dialogue felt real. The pacing, an often underappreciated aspect, was also expertly done. It truly is insane to see work come out of fans that is, at least in some cases, far superior to the official media that Disney has been shoveling towards us. Great work all around guys.
This is one of the most original, intelligent and well presented and produced fan film I’ve seen for a long time. The idea of two adversaries joining forces to survive is a well used trope, but applying it the way you did in the Star Wars universe was masterful. Reminding us that Ewoks are not cuddly little Teddy Bears was a good call and the performances by the principals were totally believable. The score while inspired by Williams, was sufficiently original to convey the feeling of a Star Wars score yet maintained its own identity. Thank for a very entertaining interlude.
These teddy bears almost cooked Han and Luke for dinner. My bet is Ewoks did not attack the empire because they liked Leia. They did because imperials were easy dinner.
@@metroglow236 This convinced me that George Lucas is a rebel propagandist. How can anyone show those furry fierce beasts as cute dolls that walk and eat humans. I do not know what is he doing in a galaxy far far away, unless it is this galaxy and he is preparing Earth to join the rebels.😂
Thank you for the amazing comment. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. It’s a massive under taking trying to make a Star Wars film of any scale, let alone without a real budget. So for ours to achieve any kind of positive resonation with other fans really means the world to all of us that worked on this series. Thank you for finding the humour where we slipped it in there and for appreciating the story. It means a lot.
When fireworks have died down and awards have been handed out... ordinary people remain on both sides of the barricades, who need to learn to live in a new reality. Beautiful work! Thank you! Your film made me cry 😭
Thank you. That’s my actual daughter there, so it was heavy at the time and still kinda hits me when I watch it and go into that world. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
I have no idea who you are, or how RUclips finally managed to recommend something worth watching, but here I am, and this is fricking amaze-balls. The location, the costumes, and especially the weapons. I even loved the “Teddy Bear” jab line. Someone needs to be paying you to do this exact thing professionally. May the Force be with you, always.
They’re not. Relax. Writing and delivery felt janky af at time. Y’all Disney haters must have been busy hating on minorities when Rogue One came out or something cause that movie was pure Star Wars dope.
Worth the wait! "Alderaan"...now that was a twist I didn't expect!...Who needs Disney with the quality of this! Well done to ALL involved in this masterpiece!!! 😉👍
Everybody did such an incredible job with After Endor. Probably my favorite Star Wars fan film ever. Thank you to all involved for gifting the fans with such a good short story!
This is so true. Ironically Disney had the perfect opportunity to tell us their story. They gave us Finn: An ordinary Imperial soldier who decided to defect. This is such an interesting concept and could have been made great use of telling us stories from a perspective we never saw before. Unfornately they failed all the way. They not only underused his character, but also quickly relegated him to the backstage and also making him a comic relief more than once. I feel so bad for John Boyega...
Yep… when every movie has the entire universe hinging on it, nobody feels real. I think they’ve started doing some more small scale stories. There should be enough stories in that universe to last forever.
Top marks to Tiffany and the whole soundtrack team for those staccato trumpets and dissonant strings. The music composition plays just enough of Williams’ themes so you feel it, but not too much to steel it. And it drove the emotion without being sentimental. Looking forward to your next.
One of the few fan films that was incredible. The acting was top notch. The special effects were good enough and the story was amazing. The Alderaan part was brilliant. The Scout rider that Chewy shot off his speeder bike was brilliant. Someone always has to die and I hate that. But this was truly enjoyable from start to finish. I thank you for adding more to the Star Wars legacy. This film should go right next to all the rest of them. I don't count 7 - 9 as a part of my Star Wars Galaxy but I certainly do count this one.
Disney redefined what I understand as canon. I used to see a logo and it was canon. But now only excellence is canon. And THIS video is excellence. This video is canon to me.
In Disney star wars we got battlefront 2 in 2017 one of the missions was endor. In which a special forces unit got to see the second death star blow up and, that group proceed to kill every single rebel on endor making their way to some starfighters and fly them back to your ship. while doing that you're taking out rebel star fighters. I double-checked this game is Canon to the Star wars time line.
@aquarius5719 @afterendor absolutely 100% agreed! This is fantastic. For years I used to see fan films & sometimes cringe at the acting or writing, but there's been that level of passion. Disney has succeeded in removing that passion & quality. This film & others like redefine & resume that passion. WELL DONE!!
@@jimdraven2432 You did not watch the 5 episodes of Pink Five. First episode is just silly comedy. But as it moves on it becomes epic. The next episode is either in the thumbnail at the end of each video or in the description of the video
I really enjoyed this. And I love the message. It shows that even though we might be on totally different sides of a war or conflict or just an issue, we're still just people and we mostly want and need the same things in life. And given a chance we can get along with each other and probably end up liking each other
this is by far the best fan-film I've seen. It's the small stories that made me love star wars over the years. Thank you to all who where involved with this amazing project!
Truly fantastic. Amazing what love of the source material can create. Such human material, exactly what had been missing from this franchise for a long, long time. You guys should be very proud of your accomplishment.
I like the way it adds context to the story of the end of Return. There are always winners and losers in wars, but in the end of things everyone loses if they keep fighting when the fighting should be over.
My goodness, that was absolutely amazing. Someone needs to let Disney know this is how they write a great story for an Imperial trooper. Well done to the cast and crew.
@@AfterEndorGlad you went for it too. This was so great and shows hwo you can make a great film with quite a simple story if you just tweak it at the right points.
This was the best Star Wars fan made film I ever seen. I hope you will bring more videos like this on RUclips. I do agree with one of the guys said it's better than a Disney video of Star Wars. I hope to see more Star Wars fan made videos in the future. Great story and great work!👍
I've watched literally dozens of Star Wars fan films and none of them. NONE of them. Made me cry like this one. Absolute treasure this fan film. Thank you for making this! Y'all are legends and I truly hope you go far and continue making fan films. The acting, cinematography, fight coreography, character building, pure emotions, costumes, and props were just so on point. AND THAT TWIST WITH ALDERAAN!!!! OMG GENIUS!!!!!! Heart strings were pulled with that one. Everything was incredible and I loved every second. I can not put into words the depth of my amazement and joy in seeing such a well made film. Better than most of what Disney has produced in years. Nice job in outdoing them. Legendary🔥
Holy crap. That's better than anything Disney has made. Hats off to everyone involved. I was absolutely into it the whole time. Manly tears at the end for me... MANLY TEARS!!! Good story and direction is better than millions of dollars, poor direction, and bad story. This is proof.
@@AfterEndor You can't seriously believe what you made compares to anything made by Lucasfilm? You'd be as delusional as that turkey you are responding to? Great effort but come on.
You guys did great. I admit I was skeptical when I saw it in my algorithm, but this is 100x better than anything the Mighty Mouse is putting out. I’ve been boycotting Star Wars since Solo: A Star Wars Story and I’ll be damned if this 30 minute fan film didn’t capture the magic that made me fall in love with Star Wars. You guys are out here doing the best kind of work. Hats off to everyone involved in this project!
I cannot believe what I just watched. I felt more watching this than I did watching the sequel trilogy. Amazingly produced. Fantastic direction, acting, and writing! I absolutely loved this. So much nuance, so much grey. This felt close to Andor for me, which is a compliment, as it is my favourite Star Wars show. Just thank you so much for all of your hard work and for sharing this with us fellow fans. Thank you.
The scout trooper running through the stages of grief was excellent. Well done. The Ewoks being omnivorous and enjoying a bit of long pig, well, they were going to cook and eat the rebels they captured until C3PO convinced them not too so that shouldn't be a surprise...
That's unfortunately not that difficult. Most of Disney writers have to jump through hideous amounts of red tape and plagiarism shorthand to have a group determine wether or not each line is in fact copywritable and if they can squeeze yet another marginalized group into any fragments that remain.
OMG ! Great job. It looks so professional. I was amazed by the script, the quality of color and the editing. You truly deserve the award of the best SW FanFilm. THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
The best fanfilm I've ever seen. That's so cool and I felt with the characters. The part at night with the ewoks remembered me to battlefront 2 and the background looks so real. Thank you very much, I wish this would be canon
This is a well-crafted, beautifully written story. Sitting through this for half an hour was worth my time than the Sequel Trilogy. It felt like I was watching an episode of Andor due to the depiction of the darker side of the Rebellion in which not every rebel is a saint, yet that doesn't mean every Imperial is a rotten apple. I really like the bond that Scout and Princess developed along the way, and it was heartbreaking to see Scout learn that he can't go back home to Alderaan, that his daughter was on that planet when it was blown up, and how he sacrificed himself to give Princess a chance to return to his wife. I can't even forget to commend you for making the Ewoks scary as they should be, not to mention the humor and chemistry between the two protagonists, and the filming location for Endor, which also has grasslands and meadows as seen in the Ewok films. Nevertheless, this is an incredible journey and I hope you can keep telling more amazing stories that even George himself would be proud of. May the Force be with you.
Posting stuff like your comment should include the warning of "Spoiler Alert"... No need to give a detailed plot narrative whilst thanking the creator(s), as you're forgetting that some of us check the comments in order to see what others thought about it, before we spend our time watching it.
Oh man, what a gem! From " you're a great shot, I thought you guys always missed" to the scout's visions of his daughter. What a treat this half hour short was. Kudos to those all around that gave me more of an emotional roller-coaster than Disney ever could. 👏👏👏
I didn’t know about Star Wars fan films until yesterday when one came up on my suggested. I’ve been binging them for 2 days, and is my favorite so far. Great job.
After many fan films later, this one is one of those closest to a human heart and mind. I cried at the end because it’s showcasing how war will tear the hearts and mind of good people and keep aside and showcase the bad people. Sigh sigh sigh. :’(
This is as PERFECT a Star Wars film should be. I felt it throughout .... well written (except for 1 thing: "Teddy bears"); beautiful locations, great job with the music, WELL ACTED ALL!!!, direction - actors - story - AWARD WINNER!
It never ceases to amaze me how fans can write stories with such depth, character, and sincerity. Beautifully crafted and created. Much applause and congratulations to the writers, director, and cinematography team for their incredible production.
This is beautifully shot. Cinematography is just as good as the films. It has the original trilogy vibe. I have been a big fan of Isaac's work for a long time.
Always hated Storm troopers as a kid. Thought they were just evil. Great job humanizing them for me. As a father of a 5 year daughter who hates to see me go to work every day, I feel his pain. Amazing job.
The sheer amount of detail in this film is mindblowing. At 17:48 you can see the rebel's eyes rapidly moving around in his sleep, which is caused by brain activity from dreaming.
I literally skimmed parts of this since up late but just watched certain parts, like the truth about his family, the rebel that had a change if heart, and the sacrifice part and they moved me. I got emotional chills! This! This right here is how much better it is then any of the newer disney stories they have released! The mere fact I just tired, skimmed parts of it did I get invested and emotional over it, is how much amazing and better this is compared to any of the current stuff up!
Best Star Wars drama I've seen in well over a decade. Thanks to the makers, actors and writers for this. Clearly made with love by people who respect and know the GFFA.
That was one of the best star wars fan films I have seen yet. Compelling storyline, great acting, perfect costumes/props. looked very professional. I hope you make another!
It's that kind of stories the original trilogy lacks a lot. You don't get to see the imperial forces as a human being. They're all seen as evil. This is excellent story telling!
Thank you! Our Director of Photography, Isaac, did an incredible job. It's such a fascinating time to explore with all of the turmoil and change. So many stories could be told here.
This was absolutely amazing! For me, bringing the very real, human realities of conflict into these stories adds substance and very relatable emotions to what once was just a good guy vs bad guy story for the most part. Not bagging on the stories because I have zero complaints about any of them. But to add stories such as this to them is exactly what they need. You deserve respect and acknowledgment for this piece and I really hope to see more. This was over the top! Thank you!
I saw that the movie started off with a scene from the real film, and was waiting to see the shift in quality when it cut to the fanfilm part, and my jaw absolutely dropped when it stayed equally good. The actors did an amazing job, and the music and camera angles look like the actual films 👍👍👍
This fan films is the best I have ever seen because all of the other ones don't have store telling and are really short but this one has all of that and it is not boring it is compelling to watch ❤ 10/10 store telling
Absolutely awesome! This was such a magnitude better than anything Disney has offered up! Once again, the fans do Star Wars better than those who bought it! ❤
Wow that was brilliant, I dont normally comment In this case though I must say. That was amazing, I love Star wars but this was on another level. I felt real empathy and remorse for troper TB-138 and got so sucked into both the character's greatest of respect and appreciation to this films cast crew and creators, The force is strong with them all. 🤗
Wtf was this? This was freaking AMAZING! I literally almost cried! Also I've never been more afraid of those pesky ewoks! What a scene! Also the camerawork in general! The location!! The dream sequences! Beautiful! Also the whole thing just kept dragging me in. Went by with a snap of a finger! How does this not have millions of views!? What a story! 10/10 (maybe the ending was little overdramatic) But wow! Thank you so much! I did not expect this! Wow! I'm absolutely stunned! This must've been quite the project!! I can't even imagine! But what an outstanding result!
Wow. Now *_that_* was damn good. First time I have ever been terrified by Ewoks. And realized just how terrible they were really. Thank you so much, just wonderful. And ten times better than Disney.
Wow, blew me away. What an amazing story !! Well written and acted. You actually cared for these warriors and it hits you right in the feels. Loved this ! Well done.
Just discovered this 5 months late. What an amazing fan film. George Lucas needs to find a note pad man. What an amazing side to a story we never knew we wanted. Congratulations!

Why are "fan films" soooo much better than Disney Star Wars films? This was a true work of art, and love for the ongoing story.

You guys did great. I admit I was skeptical when I saw it in my algorithm, but this is 100x better than anything the Mighty Mouse is putting out. I’ve been boycotting Star Wars since Solo: A Star Wars Story and I’ll be damned if this 30 minute fan film didn’t capture the magic that made me fall in love with Star Wars. You guys are out here doing the best kind of work. Hats off to everyone involved in this project!
I cannot believe what I just watched. I felt more watching this than I did watching the sequel trilogy. Amazingly produced. Fantastic direction, acting, and writing! I absolutely loved this. So much nuance, so much grey. This felt close to Andor for me, which is a compliment, as it is my favourite Star Wars show. Just thank you so much for all of your hard work and for sharing this with us fellow fans. Thank you.
So this is what happens when talented people do something out of love.
❤
Thanks for keeping the dream alive.
That means. A lot. Thank you!
The scout trooper running through the stages of grief was excellent. Well done.
The Ewoks being omnivorous and enjoying a bit of long pig, well, they were going to cook and eat the rebels they captured until C3PO convinced them not too so that shouldn't be a surprise...
Yes, that was very convincing acting. Also Ewoks being something more than just cute teddy bears is well, realistic :)
This is what we should have on the big screen. Great writing, great plot and great idea. We hope there's more on the way 🤘
Thank you! Will for sure keep working on more. So glad you enjoyed it!
When the fans write better stories than Disney.
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you
That's unfortunately not that difficult. Most of Disney writers have to jump through hideous amounts of red tape and plagiarism shorthand to have a group determine wether or not each line is in fact copywritable and if they can squeeze yet another marginalized group into any fragments that remain.
You are being silly. Grow up
Yeah Disney is basically dead. It's been essentially confirmed at this point that it will be sold off.
Andor
Fantastic job on this. Won't lie. I cried.
Generation X thanks you for restoring what Star Wars meant to us.
A standing ovation tour de force performance by all 🌹 👏
Thank you so much!
@@AfterEndor Much deserved!😎👍
@@AfterEndorright beside empire, maybe better.
Exactly.
Please don't speak on behalf of anyone but yourself.
This is a remarkable fan film. Beautifully written, beautifully shot, and such excellent attention paid to the lore. 👏
OMG ! Great job. It looks so professional. I was amazed by the script, the quality of color and the editing.
You truly deserve the award of the best SW FanFilm.
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
Thank YOU so much! We made this for fans like you and are so happy you enjoyed it :)
The best fanfilm I've ever seen. That's so cool and I felt with the characters. The part at night with the ewoks remembered me to battlefront 2 and the background looks so real. Thank you very much, I wish this would be canon
This is a well-crafted, beautifully written story. Sitting through this for half an hour was worth my time than the Sequel Trilogy. It felt like I was watching an episode of Andor due to the depiction of the darker side of the Rebellion in which not every rebel is a saint, yet that doesn't mean every Imperial is a rotten apple.
I really like the bond that Scout and Princess developed along the way, and it was heartbreaking to see Scout learn that he can't go back home to Alderaan, that his daughter was on that planet when it was blown up, and how he sacrificed himself to give Princess a chance to return to his wife. I can't even forget to commend you for making the Ewoks scary as they should be, not to mention the humor and chemistry between the two protagonists, and the filming location for Endor, which also has grasslands and meadows as seen in the Ewok films.
Nevertheless, this is an incredible journey and I hope you can keep telling more amazing stories that even George himself would be proud of. May the Force be with you.
Posting stuff like your comment should include the warning of "Spoiler Alert"... No need to give a detailed plot narrative whilst thanking the creator(s), as you're forgetting that some of us check the comments in order to see what others thought about it, before we spend our time watching it.
This was all right, I see what happened but after. Just like you just show is what needs to be done. Thank you for this here 🙏😊
Oh man, what a gem! From " you're a great shot, I thought you guys always missed" to the scout's visions of his daughter. What a treat this half hour short was. Kudos to those all around that gave me more of an emotional roller-coaster than Disney ever could. 👏👏👏
I didn’t know about Star Wars fan films until yesterday when one came up on my suggested. I’ve been binging them for 2 days, and is my favorite so far. Great job.
Probably the BEST fan film I've seen... Should be paid by Disney...
After many fan films later, this one is one of those closest to a human heart and mind. I cried at the end because it’s showcasing how war will tear the hearts and mind of good people and keep aside and showcase the bad people. Sigh sigh sigh. :’(
This is as PERFECT a Star Wars film should be. I felt it throughout .... well written (except for 1 thing: "Teddy bears"); beautiful locations, great job with the music, WELL ACTED ALL!!!, direction - actors - story - AWARD WINNER!
Thank you! I know I took some liberties with that one. But Han says “see you in hell!”, so I figured I didn’t mind it.
Yeah, this 'purist' needs to lighten up, sit back & just enjoy the story. Again, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
No worries at all. I appreciate the love!
@@aaronbuckmiller4728 You make some good points, the good and the bad.
It never ceases to amaze me how fans can write stories with such depth, character, and sincerity. Beautifully crafted and created. Much applause and congratulations to the writers, director, and cinematography team for their incredible production.
Wow! This is amazing!! Everything from the editing, composition, casting, wardrobe, score and colourgrade were excellent. Most impressive!
Impressive. Most impressive! Love your callback to Empire Strikes Back. Thank you!
@@AfterEndor this is great we need shows like these
Wow, this was fantastic. Incredible job.
This is beautifully shot. Cinematography is just as good as the films. It has the original trilogy vibe. I have been a big fan of Isaac's work for a long time.
Isaac did an incredible job. We're so lucky that he came on board to shoot this.
You are dreaming.
I see you @josh
I'm blown away. I felt real emotions watching this. This needs more views for sure.
Always hated Storm troopers as a kid. Thought they were just evil. Great job humanizing them for me. As a father of a 5 year daughter who hates to see me go to work every day, I feel his pain. Amazing job.
This is so good...these fan films are so much better than Disney.
thank you very much, absolutely incredible work. from writing to execution - great!
This story is so good compared to whatever Disney produces these days. Thank you for putting your time and effort into this amazing story !
The sheer amount of detail in this film is mindblowing. At 17:48 you can see the rebel's eyes rapidly moving around in his sleep, which is caused by brain activity from dreaming.
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching!
i haven't cried this hard for an imperial soldier ever!!!! this was amazing i will be share this video everywhere
This is so much better than any of Disney’s Star Wars. Excellent story and a bittersweet ending.
You cannot be possibly be serious. What a stupid comment.
Mini-Films and animations like these always bring back that awesome feeling Star Wars first gave me. Y'all did amazing!
I literally skimmed parts of this since up late but just watched certain parts, like the truth about his family, the rebel that had a change if heart, and the sacrifice part and they moved me. I got emotional chills! This! This right here is how much better it is then any of the newer disney stories they have released! The mere fact I just tired, skimmed parts of it did I get invested and emotional over it, is how much amazing and better this is compared to any of the current stuff up!
Best Star Wars drama I've seen in well over a decade.
Thanks to the makers, actors and writers for this. Clearly made with love by people who respect and know the GFFA.
That was one of the best star wars fan films I have seen yet. Compelling storyline, great acting, perfect costumes/props. looked very professional. I hope you make another!
Without exaggeration, this is better than Star Wars. And I love Star Wars ❤❤❤
It's that kind of stories the original trilogy lacks a lot. You don't get to see the imperial forces as a human being. They're all seen as evil.
This is excellent story telling!
this had me tearing up, the character development is spot on, writing, cinematography, sets, props, top quality. hats off to you and your team!
Beautifully shot! I love the time period we’re dealing with here. It’s very rarely been explored in the new canon!
Thank you! Our Director of Photography, Isaac, did an incredible job. It's such a fascinating time to explore with all of the turmoil and change. So many stories could be told here.
What a fantastic film! Well done, heart-warming, full of emotion. Worth every minute! What a fitting follow-up to Episode VI.
Really, really well done. I don't know what I was expecting but this blew me away. Great job to everyone involved in this.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it
This is an excellent video. Thank you for making it.
This was wonderful. Thank you for making it.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you :)
This was absolutely amazing! For me, bringing the very real, human realities of conflict into these stories adds substance and very relatable emotions to what once was just a good guy vs bad guy story for the most part. Not bagging on the stories because I have zero complaints about any of them. But to add stories such as this to them is exactly what they need. You deserve respect and acknowledgment for this piece and I really hope to see more. This was over the top! Thank you!
Wow!! This is amazing!
Tip of the hat.
This is by far the best Starwars content I've seen in a long time.
Thank you so much 😀
Well excuuuuuse me princess! Seriously though great job, hit me in the feels. Solid production all round.
I saw that the movie started off with a scene from the real film, and was waiting to see the shift in quality when it cut to the fanfilm part, and my jaw absolutely dropped when it stayed equally good. The actors did an amazing job, and the music and camera angles look like the actual films 👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
This fan films is the best I have ever seen because all of the other ones don't have store telling and are really short but this one has all of that and it is not boring it is compelling to watch ❤ 10/10 store telling
That thumbnail is 🔥 The lighting for each shot is 🔥 This fan film is 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much
that was *FANTASTIC* , great Camera, great Acting, great Costumes and awesome writing
Absolutely awesome! This was such a magnitude better than anything Disney has offered up! Once again, the fans do Star Wars better than those who bought it! ❤
I’m really glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Wow that was brilliant, I dont normally comment In this case though I must say. That was amazing, I love Star wars but this was on another level. I felt real empathy and remorse for troper TB-138 and got so sucked into both the character's greatest of respect and appreciation to this films cast crew and creators, The force is strong with them all. 🤗
Wtf was this?
This was freaking AMAZING!
I literally almost cried!
Also I've never been more afraid of those pesky ewoks! What a scene!
Also the camerawork in general! The location!!
The dream sequences! Beautiful!
Also the whole thing just kept dragging me in.
Went by with a snap of a finger!
How does this not have millions of views!?
What a story!
10/10 (maybe the ending was little overdramatic)
But wow!
Thank you so much!
I did not expect this! Wow!
I'm absolutely stunned!
This must've been quite the project!!
I can't even imagine!
But what an outstanding result!
Wow. Now *_that_* was damn good. First time I have ever been terrified by Ewoks. And realized just how terrible they were really. Thank you so much, just wonderful. And ten times better than Disney.
Absolutely amazing. Hats off to you. Thanks for bringing such a great Star Wars story to life for us
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Well this was beautifully done. Had me tearing up so I’m sure you hit the emotional points you wanted. Bravo
Loved it... well shot, great script and turns the tables on the whole good vs eveeeel story.
Thank you! We wanted to explore more of good and eveeeel in Star Wars and how each side saw themselves.
Wow, blew me away. What an amazing story !! Well written and acted. You actually cared for these warriors and it hits you right in the feels. Loved this ! Well done.
This was really enjoyable. Great production quality and story. I can not wait for more! Great work!
That was truly amazing! I genuinely had a lump in my throat at the end. Well done!
Just discovered this 5 months late. What an amazing fan film. George Lucas needs to find a note pad man. What an amazing side to a story we never knew we wanted. Congratulations!
What a great story! Thank you for creating this!
This was the best Star Wars fan film I have ever seen.. bravo..🥹
