YouTube user The Unusual Suspect made a trailer of Star Wars recut like the original Guardians of the Galaxy. This flawless mashup recreates the movie trailer in a completely different style that adds a more humorous edge to the film. Sci-fi fans and lovers of anything having to do with the 70s will be really into this video.
Star Wars (Guardians of the Galaxy Style!) is particularly timely given Star Wars Episode VII is in production and a new Guardians of the Galaxy is being released this summer. While the new Marvel film is highly anticipated, it will be interesting to see if it can hold up to sci-fi classics like the original Star Wars franchise.
This Star Wars recut trailer is truly epic and worth watching.
