If we’re honest, most of the stuff on YouTube is dreck. But whoever did this Star Wars as a silent movie video is a borderline genius, especially Darth Vader’s introduction.

Thinking back over some of George Lucas’ dialogue – especially in the prequels – maybe the whole thing would have been better this way.
