Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise centered on a film series created by George Lucas. The film series, consisting of two trilogies, has spawned an extensive media franchise called the Expanded Universe including books, television series, computer and video games, and comic books. These supplements to the franchise resulted in significant development of the series’ fictional universe, keeping the franchise active in the 16-year interim between the two film trilogies. The franchise depicts a galaxy described as far, far away in the distant past, and it commonly portrays Jedi as a representation of good, in conflict with the Sith, their evil counterpart. Their weapon of choice, the lightsaber, is commonly recognized in popular culture. The franchise’s storylines contain many themes, with strong influences from philosophy and religion.
I will just say this: I would never presume to question anything George Lucas says is canon in Star Wars. And our job was not to negate or undo. A lot of people who are critics of our Star Trek, and I respect all of them, said we destroyed what they loved and negated everything. And we worked hard to clarify that we are not saying that our Star Trek over-rides a thing of the original Star Trek — it was a parallel timeline. I never wanted to negate canon that fans held so dear. And because I love Star Wars and have for too many years… … And having said all that and meaning it — I don’t want to presume over-write or change what George says the rules are.
I’m not someone who quite understands the science of the Force. To me Star Wars was never about science fiction.
In Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Yoda is the grandmaster Jedi who teaches Luke Skywalker the ways of the Force. In the film’s Bad Lip Reading counterpart, he’s a senile old alien singing about seagulls attacking him on the beach before getting hit in the neck by a random hacky sack.
The simplistic but gut-wrenchingly funny Bad Lip Reading video series has tackled Star Wars a number of times, including Empire. But this new take compiles some of the scenes from Yoda and Luke’s training sessions on Dagobah and transforms them into a music video for the made-up song “Seagulls! (Stop It Now).”
All of a sudden, R2-D2 becomes the hysterically impromptu percussion set we didn’t know we needed in our lives.
