If Greedo Was Speaking Spanish

They say that the alien languages in Star Wars were actually human languages from very remote regions of the earth like east Africa. They figured that these languages were so rarely spoken that no one in the audience would be distracted by what the aliens were saying because their language was so... well... alien.

But I figure there has to be at least a handful of people among the millions of Star Wars fans who recognize and perhaps even understand what those aliens were saying. And what if what the aliens were saying were just random, nonsensical sentences that had nothing to do with the context of the conversation on screen?

To see what this was like, I took the liberty of rerecording the dialogue of one of the aliens in Star Wars in Spanish. I figure enough people in the world are familiar enough with that language that it might be jarring enough to recreate the experience of those Star Wars fans who might have been thrown off by the original "alien" language.

disclaimer: This is just for fun. I'm not making anythin from this so Lucasfilm shouldn't feel at all threatened by what I've done here, yada yada yada...

Thanks Joseph!! Your vid cracks me up a lot more (even though mine is an inside joke with a product called Crystal Focus)...

But... I'd be interested to know what the Spanish lines are! I hear "Las cucarachas" and even "burritos" and stuff like that, and... wait, does Greedo call Han "Ernesto"??!?!? At the beginning? :) hahahah

Whatever the case... would love to know the translation, lol
