Star Wars Fan Film Vader: Episode I – Shards of the Past

Star Wars Fan Film Vader: Episode I – Shards of the Past
There are some good Star Wars fan films out there, and then there are some exceptional ones. Vader: Episode I belongs in the latter camp. This film will blow you away! It is set between the events of Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. Do yourself a favor and watch this.

“Anakin Skywalker is DEAD. For eight months, the mysterious Darth Vader has enforced the Emperor’s commands. Fighting between the loss of Padme, and the new cursed life he now leads, Vader must do what must be done when a surviving Jedi Master from Order 66 has lured him to the home planet of his late wife’s tomb…”

Watch Teenage Seth Macfarlane In A Star Trek Fan Film

Watch Teenage Seth Macfarlane In A Star Trek Fan Film
If you’ve been watching the Orville, it will come as no surprise to you that Seth MacFarlane has always been a huge Star Trek fan. The Orville is an amazing Star trek show even if it doesn’t have the official label on it. You can see the love he has for Trek in every episode and in every frame. So I guess we shouldn’t be surprised to see this clip of a young Seth MacFarlane in a Star Trek fan film. He’s clearly having a ball. Who knew that this would all lead to his own Trek TV show?

Star Wars Fan Trailer Featuring Ralph McQuarrie’s Original Concept Art

Star Wars Fan Trailer Featuring Ralph McQuarrie's Original Concept Art
The importance of Ralph McQuarrie’s original concept art for Star Wars can not be understated. It still influences the designs and creatures we see in the films, in comics, and on TV. His legacy lives on. This fan film is a lovingly made trailer that brings McQuarrie’s art to life to show us a Star Wars we never got to see. It is so well done and beautiful. It’s nice to see that people still appreciate McQuarrie’s work after all of these years.

Fan-Made Film Adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns

Fan-Made Film Adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns
I really enjoyed Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns, and like so many fans I always wondered what a movie version would be like. We’ve seen some elements worked into movies here and there, but never a completely faithful live-action version. Well, filmmaker Wyatt Weed has made his own film adaptation of the 1986 comic. Surprisingly, it is pretty entertaining and well done. He gets so much right here. He made the film with only $2500 over 24 days, over 17 months. It just goes to show you that a movie with heart beats a big budget film any day. Give this guy a meeting with Warner Bros.

Raiders of the Lost Darth - A Raiders of the Lost Ark and Star Wars Mashup
Here is a fun Star Wars mashup. French filmmaker Fabrice Mathieu has created “Raiders of the Lost Darth” a mashup of Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark and Star Wars. It is actually a special edition of his mashup from last year, called “Raiders of the Lost Dark” and it features more special effects and Easter eggs. You’ll have to watch this one a few times to see everything. If you have ever wanted these two franchises to meet, here ya go.

Boba Fett Fan Film Movie Trailer


Sometime in the next few years we are going to see Boba Fett back on the big screen. Word is that Lucasfilm has been working on a spinoff movie starring the famous bounty hunter. It may not be confirmed yet, but we know that it’s coming. It might look something like this trailer made by Director Eric Demeusy.

This fan-trailer is called Star Wars: The New Republic Anthology. Boba Fett escapes the Sarlacc Pit and makes his way to his ship, Slave I. The costume looks great, the music is right on target. It makes me itch for Fett’s new movie. It is a great time to be a Star Wars fan.

Ripper: A Batman Fan Film


James Campbell needs your help to complete his very awesome film named Ripper. The film is nearly complete, but they need money for the final 20% of the film. Judging by the trailer here, it is a worthy investment. It looks really amazing with some nice production value.

Batman against Jack The Ripper is a great story. It’s based on the 1991 Elseworlds graphic novel, Gotham By Gaslight, which is a classic. Go here to help James finish this cool project.

Predator: Dark Ages Fan Film


This is such an awesome idea for a fan film. Predator: Dark Ages is exactly what it sounds like. Predator hunting people down in medieval times. Something about that sentence makes me very happy. Probably because I love a good Predator movie. The film was written and directed by James Bushe.

Set during the Crusades, the faith & fighting skills of a group of Templar Knights is put to the test when they encounter the Predator. Their battle is the thing Myths and Legends are born from.

The trailer does what it is supposed to do. It leaves you wanting more. I can’t wait to see the final film. The full version will be released in a few short weeks. Keep an eye peeled for this one.
