Benjamin Kenobi, Space Knight!

Here’s a treat for you Star Wars fans: The Continuing Adventures of Benjamin Kenobi, Space Knight of the Future! is a trailer for the upcoming Revenge of the Sith

— if it had been made as part of one of those old black-and-white

sci-fi serials in the 1950’s. It uses footage from the trailer for

Revenge of the Sith with the colour removed, overlaid with retro trailer graphics, a cheesy

Republic/RKO pictures score and funny 50s-ish reworkings of the characters,

such as :

• Sammy Jackson Jnr. as Negro Space Knight!
• Boris McDiarmivoch as Dr. Sidious, Evil Sith Lord from Mars!
• …and introducing Harry Chryshner as Faithful Sidekick, Kit Skyranger…or is he?
• Battles using the Space Kinghts’ weapon: the indestructible Lazer-Sword™!

It’s about 7 MB and in QuickTime format.
