I’m so proud to be the mom of the screenwriter and producer of this amazing film. They worked so hard to bring this to the Star Wars fan world. The cast and crew are beyond amazing!
Ma'am, They did an awesome job!!!
You can !
This is such a Mom post to make and I'm seriously here for it lol
We moms gotta rep our kids! Thanks@@davyman2000
I’m blushing, Mom ❤ Thanks for always supporting your nerdy sons. We love you!
Can we all agree we appreciate the Max Rebo Band!
Yes seriously it was so cool!!!
Let’s get an origin story!!
Woohoo! Thanks for the love
Would love to see their rise to denizen stardom.
Of course
The way you incorporated it into the original movies is incredible, this is hands down one of the best fan films I have ever seen
Is it just me, or is the Star Wars bar scenes the freakn BEST
This movie officially becomes a favorite fan film. This adds to other fan movies I love:
* Pink Five (5 episodes)
* Tie Fighter (animation)
* Star Wars Liberation
* Star Wars Wingman
* After Endor
Thank you so much for these recommendations, i've seen a lot of fan films, many of which are great.
Your list are truly some of the best i've seen after watching all the ones on your list.
Personal favorite might be.... I don't even know, all equally good in different ways!
And Maul fan film of course (no?)
@@Toto-TK88 Forgot to list that but yeah.
I haven't seen pink 5 or liberation yet, seen the others mentioned
@@mac1701e I guess you have a few more to watch now 😉
I loved the two spider droids clutching each other's legs to roll faster than they can walk
That was pretty awesome!!
This one has has some of the best costumes and puppets I've seen. There's only a couple other fan films that are as good. The Ithorian, lizard-monkey and other cantina creatures looked right out of the original films.
Tim Martin is a stunning creature sculptor. One of the best working in Hollywood. He also has an instruction series on the Stan Winston channel.
EXCELLENT!! NO CHEAP ACTING EITHER!!! LOOKS TOTALLY PRO!!
Yes! The acting is usually pretty bad in most fan films. Not this one. Exceptional!
Star Wars would be gone forever without films like these.
😂
There is evidence to suggest that catholic Kennedy sought to destroy George lucas's legacy because he romantically spurned her.
This was incredible. The costume design and puppet work was the best I've ever seen in a fan film. Those droids! They were so good! Loved the voice of that certain familiar character at the end. Amazing job
❤️🤖❤️
This has got to be one of the best, if not 'the' best Star Wars Stories ever made. The quality of this production is top notch. The acting was phenomenal. The set design, sound effects, visual effects, story, props, costumes, and everything else were amazing.
Thank you :)
i think is the best star wars short who i never saw, the costumes, the locations, the interiors was amazing so much quality of details, the best of the best
thank you so much!
Few fan films would I describe as inspiring. This really felt like getting into the Star Wars underworld. Everything was perfect! The props, the sets, the costumes, the VFX, the writing, the cinematography, the music, the sound, the acting.... No doubt these people are deep in love with this franchise and every frame of this piece is a demonstration of it. Please do more!
Thank you so much. Our team appreciates your kind words.
We are born and raised Star Wars. Fans living the dream of contributing to the galaxy far far away...
This means the world to us. So glad you enjoyed all the effort. We’ve been fans from the beginning.
Hey Disney. This is what a Star Wars film really looks like........ superbly done.
right??
Agree!
Awesome story line. I’m 50 and an original star wars kid you did a great job
Hands-down, one of my favorite, Star Wars projects, I’ve seen in so long. This is so well-made, and so respectful to fans and inspiring with unique intertwined story/new characters to a very familiar universe and very well captured. This is seriously incredible for a true Star Wars fan and filmmaker alike.
thank you so much Jamie! We love the ones you have done!
Thanks so much, Jamie! Seriously, that means a ton coming from you. I definitely appreciate your friendship and support. You’re one of the good ones.
In 22 minutes you did something Disney hasn't done in 11 years. Kept me interested. I really wanted to see more. Great job 👏
So nice of you to say! A ton of volunteer work went into this and we had fun making it.
@@ChrisFBartlett well, damn fine job, guys. Keep up the great content. I appreciate you. ❤️🩹
As someone who's checked out of Star Wars of late... this surprisingly kept me hooked. Great look, great feel, and I want to know more about the characters.
... also, it's weird seeing someone like Akiva in this age. I expected her to kill the goons in the cantina but nope. She's the classic representation of a woman who knows her greatest asset is her charm and the actress nailed it. Even the peck on the cheek at the end there seemed so alien that I almost forgot Star Wars can have subtle intimacy like that. Nice sway of the hips, too!
It would explain why he was so easily knocked into the pit. He doesn't know how to control the jet pack.
Without a doubt one of the best Star Wars fan films out there! It deserves way more recognition.
Too bad it makes no sense at all. It is well executed however.
Disney needs to learn from these guys how to write great stuff.
Absolutely Fantastic.....Loved every minute of it. Great actors and even better creatures in the cantina and all. Superb bounty hunter droid. Keep up the good work 💪🙌👍💯
amazing job! loved every minute of it! especially that ending 👏🏻👏🏻
This had got to be the best of the fan films I’ve ever seen, the quality, the props, the characters, everything is outstanding! I can tell your team was very passionate about everything
From the props to the acting to the score to the cinematography, this is absolutely stunning. I watched this and actually felt very immersed with the story. The production value of this is incredible and I even noticed an Easter egg or two. 10/10 excellent job!
The Book Of Boba Fett prologue. And its canon because it has Max Reebo in it!😊
Looked and felt like Star Wars loved it great work 👍
Fan Film....????
This is STAR WARS!!!!!
👍👍👍👍👍
Totally!!!!!
That's the reaction we hope for! Thank you!
Best comment!!! 💙🤖💙
How have I just found this now? The production level is insane for a fan film; it felt like if Disney fired all the executives who don't care about Star Wars.
TIM I am blown away.
Extremely well made and awesome acting. The soundtrack and sound effects are spot on. BRAVO!!!
Wow! Decent acting, great costumes, props and settings. I forgot I was watching a fan film and not an actual high budget Lucasfilm/Disney production. Not to mention an Interesting story. I would have no problem accepting this as canon. Everyone involved in this should be proud of the end result.
That explains the discrepancies in Boba Fett’s suit and blaster between ESB and ROTJ!😂
I give this the Chef’s Kiss. Outstanding!
OMG this is the BEST fan made SW movie I have seen!!!!! If Disney had made it, it would have been the same quality. BRAVO!!!!
You mean *SUPERIOR* quality in story & dialogue but *same* in cinematography! 😊
Excellence all around, in all aspects of production here. You guys really nailed the entire look and feel of the original Star Wars movies. This story belongs in that galaxy and everyone involved should be commended for their efforts. This is by far, superior to anything the mouse has done recently. You guys need to be fully funded and allowed to keep creating!
😮 Gobsmacked!
All the details from the Cantina, all the different characters, with some nods to the old ones, and some New ones.
Special effects were pretty good. That first shot, with the ship coming in over Mos Eisley had me saying:"WOW!" out loud even!
I loved it, one of the best! ❤❤❤
wow the prop work is amazing
This is the quality of storytelling that Disney should have done from the beginning with all the spinoffs. This is Andor level Star Wars. Everything about this production is top notch!
thank you so much!
Much appreciated!
Freaking AAA++++ ❤👍👍👏👏
What he said⬆️ and more.👍🏻
Everything about this was awesome!!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Great casting, scenery, acting, screenwriting, and directing. I hope to see more and good luck with your future endeavors
This was amazing. Hats off to the entire crew!
Very well done. It looks like Star Wars. It sounds like Star Wars. It has the feel and grittiness of Star Wars. I guess it is Star Wars! I realize many of these fan films are people doing their best on a budget, but the care you all took to not have items on set that took me out of it like some of the films I’ve seen. People work hard to paint a picture, then they leave in a sitting area that looks like it was attached to McDonalds. It ruins all the other hard work they put in their film. You guys really paid attention to detail. Outstanding… really outstanding. Thank you!
Mein Kompliment! Der Film ist 80er Star Wars Feeling pur! Wunderbar! 🤩
Yo! That was dope! Definitely a cool story with a what-if twist at the end. Well played.
the lighting especially recreates the cinematography of the original movies so well.
A screenshot from scenes like the cantina could have me convinced it was from unused footage, remastered.
Excellent quality all around!
And entertaining enough to be worth the 25 minute watch time! (more like 35 since I replayed many moments haha)
thank you so much!
An excellent use of the ROTJ boba armor. Love it!
Top Marks to whoever made this film, brings back some of the great 1980's Star Wars memories, especially with Boba Fett being a badass, I look forward to seeing your future work.
Simply the best fan-made Star Wars short film out there.
Love the twist of the lore. Great explanation on how Boba Fett failed at the sarlacc pit (because it wasn't him in this theory). Great quality fan film. please do more. Subscribed and thumbs up.
The lady that plays scarvi is really talented!..
Oh George, why oh why could this have not been the way!? Why is it that we the fans understand Boba better than the creator? Thank you for this!
Great job! Someone surely knows Star Wars lore. This is in my top 3 Star Warts Fan Films from the last decade. Kudos to the Director and stunning cast, your hard work shows and is appreciated. I was the 9 year old kid who stood in line with my grandmother and aunt the week Star Wars: A new hope opened in San Diego all those years ago. No matter the movie or plot or cast, I will always follow Star Wars and all of its family tree forever. The force is indeed strong with this one, Good luck!
This is excellent film-making, Escape Velocity Content! Stellar Special FX, make-up, and Costume Design. The score was on point. Hey, quite the "get", to have Steve Blum portray characters in your film...I thought, for a few seconds, We might actually hear Mr. Morrison's characteristic voice coming from Boba Fett. At this point, this looks like a possible side story/quest in the upcoming, Star Wars: Outlaws video game. This would also make for an interesting canon comic series. I wouldn't mind seeing some of this mentioned or dramatized in The Mandoverse (in segments relating to new daimyo of Mos Espa, Lord Boba Fett). What's truly scary? This is more authentic Star Wars than too much of the Obi-Wan Kenobi miniseries, and parts of Andor (I already care more about, and like, this character, Tiro, than Cassian Andor). Loved the cameo of R2 and Threepio...I guess Anchorhead is more kind to droids than Mos Eisley. Your premise of this being, "A Star Wars Story", fits in to an idea I've had for Disney + and movie theaters releasing, on occasion, special short films of The SWU, kind of in the same vein as Marvel Studios' very successful, Werewolf By Night short film. I hope there's another installment of Sands Of Fate, or another story involving these interesting, quality characters. I wish you all continued success in your present and future creative endeavors.
Bravo! Thank you, and May The Force Be With You...
Thank you so much for your comments. It’s fans like you that make this all worth it :)
EVC, as an independent filmaker myself, I understand the complexity, work, and endurance to produce such a fine example, your production quality is excellent, the story also. LucasFilm should definitely give call, your understanding of this Galaxy is outstanding. Love, new fan, and subscriber.
It’s people like you that remind us why we do what we do. Thank you. 🙏
Hope to see your creations on Tube
A fab bit of theory and a great story!
That was an amazing short film.
Simple, beautiful, and with lots of action. This Is The Way!!
one of the coolest fan made films ive seen. Great job!!!!!
Wow. Great one. This is more Star Wars than the prequels and sequels combined. ❤👏
Totally agree!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤
WOW! I've seen some great fan films, and they just keep getting better and better. This one is the new leader! Great job!
Very good work. Loved seeing something that stuck to the lore. Great peek at what was in that other box. High production value. This goes viral in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ...
Fantastic!!! I loved this short film!!
You guys are amazing! Nathan Bock 💯 killed it! It feels like Star Wars. You created the world, the characters, everything. Truly brilliant guys ❤
@thatgirlmair your British accent was spot on
@@WWEMotorsthank you!
Yea, your British accent is really hot, yum.
This was amazing - loved it! A great bridge between the two movies. Brought back some feelings - thank you!
Great Work!!
Amazing thanks great video 😊
My god Disney, THIS is how you tell a story!!! Doesn’t need 8 episodes of slow filler and what a freaking great twist on Bobas “demise”! This is Tales from Jabbas Palace brilliance! Recently cancelled Dismay+ (I typed what I typed) due to both marvel and SW failures as well as nearly doubling their member cost. How fantastic and refreshing to feel Star Wars again here. Thanks SO for making this.
Impressive, just in time for the Fan Film Directors Choice Awards, you should enter.
Bravo!!! Now that would’ve made way more sense! Always new in my heart Boba was not a Power Ranger!!!
Wow yall had some money in this one. The Props where top notch!
besides the supplies everything was just dedicated time. everyone worked for free!
More please!!
We have another one called Birth of A Monster thats out as well
Great job Nathan and film makers, this was truly amazing and the production value was incredible. As a Star Wars fan this was definitely high on the list...hope to see more from you guys!
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it!
OMG this is so good, great vfx and sounds, incredible soundtrack. Overall a great Star Wars What If type of experience. Very excellent job 👍
Amazing isn’t covering it… it’s way more professional than I have ever seen. I want more 😊
An amazing twist at the end :-)
I shared it with friends with recommendations
Brilliant! The effects, story, props, and cinematography...all outstanding. One of the best fanmade films ever!
thank you!
That was badass! Disney could learn from you guys.
Great Star Wars fan film. So well made. Good performances by Nathan Bock and Mair Mulroney (What a babe!). Nathan Bock would have been perfect to play Han Solo. Good CGI and practical effects. Good plot. That was a good twist at the end. Good recreation of the costumes and puppets. Good filming locations. Good direction. You'd really believe this was a canon story in the Star Wars universe. One of the best Star Wars fan films ever made.
Wow, this is absolutely amazing. These characters would make a great series. Would love more adventures of Tiro.
Me too!
Best acting writing and story since episode 5.
Since episode VI!!!
This is awesome
I would fire Disney right now. You are needed on the big screen. AMAZING!!
Yeeeeeeeesss!!!
This is incredible. How is this possible? Way to go film-makers!
Very well done! A++
This is a much better idea than Boba crawling out of the Sarlac pit. I wish this came out before The Book of Boba Fet.
Sadly we started before the show announced but couldn’t finish in time for release
I actually started writing the script before the first season of the Mandalorian came out. Early 2019 I think. We would have gotten this out before Book of Boba Fett but there were so many delays.
BRAVO.
So much of the Star Wars universe with grounded storytelling to be told. Just excellent, these are the types of series that should be on Disney +
nicely done
Holy smokes, you guys are awesome - I slapped the subscribe button so hard, I broke my finger
Great job… more real and more Star Wars than Kenobi and Book of Boba.. and as a kid watching Boba go down so easily in ROTJ I always had that theory that he just hired people to take his place with less glamorous roles… and Boba in Empire and the Boba in ROTJ was drastically different IMO… in appearance and even the way he handled himself… LucasFilm needs to hire this crew.
This is amazing you guys! Hats off to everyone involved. Too bad Disney isn't as creative as you folks!Star Wars would be in a better place.
Hope to see more
Feels like Star Wars! Well done! 👍
Definitely a better fan film than most. Its sad when most of the writing provided by one of the biggest and greediest corporations out there isn't on par with a small budget independent film on TH-cam.
This felt like george Lucas filmed this,this is what starwars could be
Completely epic
Amazing work to everyone on this project wow❤
Killer aesthetic & tunes 🔥
This is brilliant! Love the production and performances!
Of all star wars fan films only a few really have ‘that feel’, few have sophisticated aesthetics, some have a good storyline and suitable characters. This one has it all. I only regard Andor, Rogue One and the OT is canon but would enjoy seeing this becoming a series 🙏🏼
thank you so much! that means the world to me!
BRAVO! I’m excited to see the what if version of one of the most controversial events of ROTJ. Now this was was well done
I love that this insinuates Boba Fett wasn't the one to fall into the Sarlaac, he's got decoys! Great idea and the props and costumes and settings were perfect, well done!
What an amazing way making a story which can expand on characters in a different way. This can easily be plugged in between ESB and ROTJ. Bravo!!!!
Thank you!!
