[FalconWings9]

This is like Star Treks Phase II series for Star Wars, excellent job.

[thebrothersparadox]

If you were to give this film a million star rating it would still be an understatement

[GamerzAUS]

quite possibley be one of the fan films with the greatest VFX

[QualityArtisticStuff]

simply one of THE best SW fan films I have seen yet. you guys are amazing; keep up the great work.

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@QualityArtisticStuff Thanks! Glad you liked the film, we've got some fun stuff coming up soon!

[fletchercraig68]

I really enjoyed this!!! Wanted everyone to know that all their hard work and dedication was greatly appreciated.

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@fletchercraig68 Thanks so much Craig, we really appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed the film. We just posted the trailer for our latest project. Make sure you check it out :)

[wyatearp518]

this i have to say is one of the best star wars fan films i have seen period. great job keep up the good work(possibly a sequel??????)

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@wyatearp518 Thanks! (Can't ask for a better endorsement than Wyatt Earp!) We're glad you liked the film, we'll be rolling out some new, original projects soon. Stay tuned!

[sparkyrocky12131963]

i love the ending where the light saber moves towards the girl (she has jedi powers)

[SuperSaint330]

She was a force sensitive shild and didnt know

[TheCoalescent]

2:09 YAY! I'M BEING STRANGLED TO DEATH!

[darthvatrayen]

This is more Star Wars than the Prequals.

[TeamImpactVideo]

Epic !!!! Thanks it was very coooool !

[sandorsbox]

killed the informant = Dark Side Point. Lol

Well done, guys! Well done indeed. Although, even a dozen Corellian corvettes would have a hard time with an Imperial II-class Star Destroyer. haha

[darthvatrayen]

@sandorsbox Ever play Empire at War?

[sandorsbox]

@darthvatrayen Never said they couldn't win, just that they'd have a hard time. haha

[TwinMoons2121]

Interesting bit with the force pull at the end. I have to say thou that the lady did let taking revenge and reveling in it take precedence over helping loved ones. Not very Jedi-like.

[Arkapok81]

I actually quite liked this. The only part I didn't enjoy was the fight scene, but otherwise well done :)

[sithgirl13]

cute....a boy who dreams of being a jedi fixes a lightsaber and ends up saving his planet :) i like it

[zerocheckers]

this was sooo epic

[TheRebelsLogic]

wonderful story work, could have used a bit more on the choreography but all in all this was very inspiring

[HauteAntoinette]

I would love to see this animated in the Genndy Tartasvosky style some day too, aside from the Live action part.

:) i would like to do it myself!

This was a great fanfilm!

keep it up and dont give up on it!

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@HauteAntoinette Thanks! We have considered continuing the story with a comic done in that style, but we've been so busy with our upcoming projects we haven't had a chance yet. Glad you liked the film :)

[HauteAntoinette]

@MoonDoggieFilms1 Your welcome :) I hope things sort out perfectly!

May the Force be with you guys!

[billstinchcomb]

I wonder if the Governor is really dead, or if, like the Bumble, he bounced?

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@billstinchcomb Looks to me like 'governor zalem' has been a busy guy since his demise. Dead or not I have no doubt we'll be seeing your mug on the silver screen ;)

[zevu1997]

Dude, the governor is shot whit a blaster in the face, and he's able to scream : NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! while he falls ? I didn't get it

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@zevu1997 Let's call it a glancing blow... just a flesh wound

[NTJack1]

Are you going to make another one? That'd be pretty cool.

[LordDaemonus]

also, how does stabbing the computer blow up the entire city?

[LordDaemonus]

good film, however i couldn't help but notice that you used an airblaster at 2:05 :P

[Username8812]

@MoonDoggieFilms1 Really awesome!! :D u guys should make a sequel and have Kyla become a Jedi struggling with the anger of losing Farin. Maybe have her move toward the sith and struggle between good and evil. Just ideas, I hope u guys make a sequel!!

[Rikotistic]

Well written and excellent film! That blended perfectly in the legend and lore that is the Star Wars universe.

[SuckMyCOG]

Not bad man. However, i gotta' admit you threw me off with that shuttle. I thought Vader was going to be on board.

[Xmenfanfilms]

Certainly best of breed of star wars fan films. The only thing that would be interested to see changed is all of the voice over to be removed from the beginning, and also put the title card at that first fade out when he's repairing the light saber. Really thought it was all well done though.

[EmoVincentValentine]

should make a second one. i love it. i cried.

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@EmoVincentValentine Thanks! Glad to hear it :)

[prowrestlingfan1994]

cliffhanger at the end, awesome way to end it, the quest ion now is will there be another one??

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

@prowrestlingfan1994 Thanks! To be honest we did this as an example of what the live action SW series *could* be (of course some real money would have put us closer to the mark ;) If someone up at the ranch decided that they liked it, we'd love to tell a few more stories on this planet.

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

Thanks Deathwatch, glad you liked it!

[roguexvampire]

@MoonDoggieFilms1 I thought this actually should be made into a movie, with your guys help to show what the rebel alliance did while they waited for the Jedi, this is epic

[GuhTrollfacee]

So... she is a jedi ?

[DancingTKProductions]

As a 501st member I realise just how much time and effort went into making this. It does have some issues, but overall an excellent plot, good costumes, and pretty good effects. Well done.

[MoonDoggieFilms1]

Thanks Kempspictures, half of the sets (the rebel base, the lower half of the town, the bar) were physically constructed, the rest were either built in maya or created in photoshop, then composited with aftereffects. Glad you liked it!

[Kempsipictures]

Wow mind blown, how did you make the sets/what program did you use?

[Toastification]

well done!!!

[borgx2679]

you guys got me hooked i want to see a sequel to this awsome job

[ATrueAlaskanWarrior]

2:10 dude is totally smiling... and you had me laughing at 2:51. Great fan film, well done sir's.

[ATrueAlaskanWarrior]

2:10 dude is totally smiling... great fan film, well done sir's.

[Tchalla5150]

part2 of comment

space ships from maya were ok and funny looking

.....hmmmm.. im done

overall: C.....minus......na D+

[Tchalla5150]

effects: ok Story: meh... ending: sucked black guy: awesome storm trooper without helm: part1: dosnt look like clone facepart2: looked like raywilliamjohnson acting:fine the luteniet's rank badge was switched around then came back a different officer didnt have a rank and one badge switched from yellow to orange the aliens looked like pigs and lizards(crap...maybe crap) everything was green screen explosion:.....what the crap did you use for that??!?!??!? microsoft movie maker?? 07??? IT SUCKED

[CRStunts]

@Tchalla5150

you think you can do better?

the film had its short comings yeah, but still wasnt a bad effort for a FAN FILM....

Get over yourself, or make something better and prove yourself.

[Tchalla5150]

@CRStunts

yes i can!!!!! so shut the frickin crap up!!!! so suck it

[CRStunts]

@Tchalla5150

Really? where's your film then?

Such a mature response.

And such an eloquent one too, you have a fantastic grasp of the english language my friend.

Until you can actually produce a link to something, with proof that you've made it; your argument is invalid.

[Tchalla5150]

@CRStunts

yes i can. Im actually making a frickin movie for the same contest these people did!!!! SCREW YOU!!!!!!!!!

[CRStunts]

@Tchalla5150 still no proof of your abilities.

what are you 12?

and you're criticising the work of professional indie film makers?

Grow up.

I looked at your work, before you try to criticise these guys, learn a little about the physics of pistols, and combat.

You're a kid, and shouldn't be making criticisms like this against any, let alone with higher skill ranges.

you should be learning from them.

[Tchalla5150]

@CRStunts

fine, im going to be the mature one and stop.

[D0MA5H]

@Tchalla5150 trollface.jpg

[Tchalla5150]

@D0MA5H

look who said it

[D0MA5H]

@Tchalla5150 Wow, how old are you exactly? From a look at one of your videos, which I regret spending 5 seconds of my precious life on, I would say around 12? Anyways, do you have a 50+ crew with gear, lights and costumes? Do you know trained actors who would act for you? Do you know a composer who will write music for you? I bet not, but if you honestly think that you can create a better fan film than these guys, then show us - and learn how to spell n00b.

PS. Stormtroopers are not clones.

[Tchalla5150]

@D0MA5H

SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU SCREW YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS. YES THEY ARE

[burntsushix]

My main issue with this film, besides the atrocious acting, spotty FX and flat characters is the plot.

This guy really is hinging a lot on the hopes of fixing a lightsaber. I think that I would of just reworked the plot a little more and had him become proficient with it before making this plan of a revolution. Have it be an accident that people are talking about a Jedi and then that sparks his idea for revolt. Also I wouldn't of had one of the goals to reach the Rebels, just have them show up.

[interstateruler]

This is awesome star wars fan films

[Degamer422]

They even set it up for a sequel

[Ezn14]

This is the coolest thing I have ever seen.

[ironduck666]

Realy good for a fan movie. Sure it has flaws but thats to eb expected. Good job even though i still think Escape from City17 is by far the best fan movie for ANY franchise.

[RoboRoadKill]

2:05 buzzbee tek 6. ps great film.

[marstaszewski]

Why there isn't any BEHIND THE SCENES?!

[Applesmauce]

This fan film was awesome. Sure, the battle scene was a little hokey, but for a fan film, without the expert coordinators and such, it was very very good, i doubt i could do better. Great job

[klyana130]

IT'S A WRAP!!

[klyana130]

This was a fan film by industry professionals who normally work in other positions. So it's not that amazing. Sad thing is it's better than some released b movies crap in theaters or on TV.

[souleaterfan1234]

What a plot twist, the girl is a force sensitive lol

[souleaterfan1234]

Y u no use mon calamari crusier and use blockade runner instead??

[Paulley]

shame the light sabre couldnt cut through a stick... and the punches didnt seem to make any noise. But i was fun for what it was.

[Lieu3C4]

Peasants really are revolting, as every Samurai knows.

[HulkSmashTime]

Beautifully conceived and masterfully done. The best hour I've spent with "Star Wars" I've had in a long time. Great job and thank you so much!

[band071508]

AWESOME. The prequels aren't this good. It's not about special effects, it's simple story telling. Surprisingly good edits, dialogue, acting. The bad guy was especially good. For a Star Wars fan(atic), this series is definitely worth watching. I hope they do more.

[DieHumanless]

decent but the death scene at the end had more cheese than the whole state of Wisconsin

[SuperDZproductions]

excellent job! i loved it!

[solnegrolunaroja]

Wow! She's like a female Han Solo! :D

[scammo13]

I hope there is coming more !

[TazDevil50]

wow big thumbs up here

[colin1212121]

Very, very good!

The ending was especially thrilling. Will there be more?

[NightStalker014]

great job!!! i loved the film.

[Goggymonstah]

Well done people, this is a great creation and classic plot!

[DarqMarv]

This was better written than the last 3 movies. Better Acted as well. and BONUS, No JAR JAR....

The Ending Was Awesome. PArt 4 Maybe, PLEASE? *fingers crossed*

[DarqMarv]

This was better written than the last 3 movies. Better Acted as well. and BONUS, No JAR JAR....

[osmo777]

Really enjoyed it a lot! Very well written... Thanks for posting and taking the time to put it together

[TwitchEnterprises]

Doesn't matter if they'd done anything during the firing squad anyway. Storm troopers are such a poor shot they'd probably have just killed eachother and not the "criminals"

[DeKevron]

Excellent job! When should we expect the release of the special edition?-grin

[Damarious25]

If the acting was better this would be a cool flick... But the acting is worse then failed b-side Barbie based space shows on si-fi. I think high school drama club kids would have been better. Honestly.

[didimydoe3]

I'm just going to put this lightsaber down within reach of you and hope you don't grab it, ok? Ok.

[Ozziguy6]

I've seen some terrible fan films in my time. But this is by far the best and most tolerable. Really well done.

I usually ignore poor special effects because its simply not possible to match the budget of feature films. Thus I only really take into account the acting and script. If those are good it doesn't matter to me how bad the special effects are.

[Mutt709]

almost cried TT^TT ssoo sad!

[EndrjuSzopen]

When I saw her eyes at the end I was hoping for ending like that. Awesome! :D

[HamHatter]

This all goes to show that the fans know Star Wars much more than Lucas himself does.

[HamHatter]

Very cool. Just a shame that Imperial officer was grinning happily as he was getting strangled.

[JediPug1]

Nicely done!

[mehigh2marsiansky]

she kicked ass, loved teh headshot:D

[burntsushix]

@mehigh2marsiansky I thought that it was cool, until she blew smoke from the barrel. That was hokey. 

[olpika]

So, in the this galaxy, when you put a lightsabre into a computer, buildings explode. Hmmm, that totally makes sense.

[AGBULLIT]

I love the Start Wars fan film. Well done!

[geodogg07]

Impressive. Most impressive.

[SunsFenix]

Best fan film i've seen.



[jcurses]

I'm not generally one for fan films and typically avoid them but credit should go to where it's deserved. The acting was good and there was a solid storyline. I found myself intrigued to the very end and honestly wish there was more. Great job guys, your efforts definitely paid off.

[Greatdictator]

Well solid work on the fan film . One of the best star wars fan films out there :D

[reingrady]

This is awesome guys. A very nice job. Looking forward to more xD This just blew my mind... Thanks!

[darkangel783]

great ending!!!!!!!! amazing movie!!!!!!!!!!

[neuraljam]

That was pretty cool... definitely better than the prequels at any rate!

[ajmy11]

If George Lucas do not make the next 3 episodes, you should.

[Reverend1138]

@ajmy11 I've heard he has those stored in his neck pouch.

[screaminmetal]

What a fake bitch didnt even shed a tear lmao jk great job u guys!

[Spenc2010]

8:07

"HANG ON, LEMME GRAB YAH PENIS ONE LAST TIME..."

[GlowstickLight]

BEST. MINUTES. OF. MY. DAY. This was more than epic! Good job you guys!

[grimm42]

Spot on job, fucking amazing. Keep it up guys.

[geno91787]

Thoroughly enjoyed this. It's the only SW Fan Film I've ever been able to sit through, and hopefully this isn't your last work. Great job!

[Terrorkekx]

Mh...the ending was not what i thought.....it would have been great if there had been no force involved....Most of us are tired of see Jedi :D

[FLAMERAMPAGE]

What the fuck? Star a better woman, she looks like a catfish.

other than the shite lady with the force it was alreet

[grimm42]

@FLAMERAMPAGE She was hot as hell, what are you talking about? Are you high?

[PunisherPayne]

@FLAMERAMPAGE SW universe is not about a person's attractiveness or looks, just look at bossk... or any other species for that matter.., Darth Maul had tooth decay!

[FLAMERAMPAGE]

@PunisherPayne Shes a part of the Rebel Alliance, and a Traitor. Take her away!

[hellroamer]

i found this difficult to masterbate 2

[antimatter007]

This is brilliant! Fantastic work all round!

[SuperJthor]

Good job guys : D

[jayc1560]

This was awesome, the CGI was awful but still watchable. Great cinematography and nice story. I love the plot twist at the end!

[yardstickification]

Any perceived problems with this film can and should be easily put aside. The sets, the effects, the costumes, the whole presentation is BY FAR better than any other SW fan film I've ever seen. These guys obviously poured tons of time and care into this project and it shows. Fantastic job.

[FLAMERAMPAGE]

@yardstickification this dude works for the show! GTFO!

[WanderingSpiritProd]

@yardstickification Unfortunately a film is only as good as its worst aspect. Sure it is decent and they put alot of time into it but it does lack as a full project. its altogether very predictable, as I worked out the entire story from a few mins in, dialogue was boring and vfx were good in only a few places.

To grow you must learn from your mistakes and a perfect film is hard to find anyway. I'm constructively criticising this as a filmmaker myself, so therefore my opinion may differ.

[yardstickification]

@WanderingSpiritProd First off, I apologize for the double post I made initially. I didn't think my first one had gone though. I appreciate your opinion and very respectful reply to my post. It is a rarity. Maybe this film didn't have the most amazing story ever told. I happen to know someone on the crew who made the film, (so yes my opinion is somewhat biased) and a large part of the point of this project was to push the limits of what could be achieved with a limited budget and resources.

[WanderingSpiritProd]

@yardstickification No worries. And yes it is amazing the resources that were put together for this film, people outside of filmmaking just looking in may never grip how much effort time and planning goes into the whole creative process. I absolutely love the sets, they blew me away....

[TVwriter23]

@WanderingSpiritProd Or how you can become sick of a project and think wth have I gotten myself into. Then you finish and it's gravy. LOL

[yardstickification]

Any problems with this film can and should be easily put aside. The sets, the effects, the costumes, the whole presentation is BY FAR better than any other SW fan film I've ever seen. These guys obviously poured tons of time and care into this project and it shows. Way to go!

[Mozezrox]

Very weird ending, and I'm sorry but the acting is pretty bad in some parts. I'm actually a bit disappointed, but I guess it's really hard to make a fanfilm with good effects and stuff... but even so, where the heck did she all of the sudden get the force from?

[MrResistance86]

This film is awesome I've been waiting for this for so long!! Way to go guys it's better then i could have hoped!!!!

[Mozezrox]

Why is the camera so blurry all of a sudden?

[Mozezrox]

02:10 lol he looks like he likes being choked...

[TheNamelessSniper]

Production quality just felt like it was less then the first part, but still an awesome fan film!

[knalleknuten]

first part was a little bit promising, but the fighting and the story was too lame

[adkitchen]

Is it me or could this story could've been told in 10min total?

[o0Riddle0o]

You guys did such a fantastic Job. The acting was great! I hope Emperor Lucas saw it and will cast ya all for his next SW Movie! :) This was Perfect! Thanks.

[jimmytwiz]

Good Job guys!

[Jacks364]

Awesome film making will there be a sequel

[weiss82]

FIRST!!!!
