Jabba being a yakuza boss and Yoda something like a shrine keeper is genius

[@JoCaTen]

@@frankwang9825 well, I assumed it was a keeper's outfit knowing Yoda. I know the difference, just thought it'd fit him more than a casual outfit. That's why I said "something" This is AI we're talking about

[@ardiansyahnugraha9688]

Yoda is more like a daimyo 😅

[@JoCaTen]

@@ardiansyahnugraha9688 that actually works even better.

[@batmanonholiday4477]

what is the software or does this guy manually piece different individual images together ?

[@muhohoi4094]

For me Yoda is something like a master of matcha (like Sen no Rikyū)

[@mbz5152]

fun fact: originally, the design of darth vader's mask was based on the combination of a samurai helmet, a historic german soldier's helmet, and a gas mask.

[@LuisSierra42]

Star wars is inspired by samurai movies

[@noobkin6995]

George Lucas also wanted a specific Japanese actor to be Obi Wan Kenobi, but they declined the role

[@StormierNik]

So basically condensed the most iconic headwear of WW2's axis into one Helmet.

[@user-ge4ph9hl8p]

this helmet is Kabuto (=兜 or 鎧兜)

[@r.h.2887]

最初、ベイダー卿の役を三船敏郎に依頼したが断られたので、代わりを考えていなかったのでマスクを着けたんだとか

[@FreyjaRKim]

It's fun to think that Yoda's way of speaking should be very natural in Japanese, the pattern fits him.

[@msndrstdmstrmnd]

Japanese yoda should speak with English grammar 😂

[@FlagAnthem]

Then should be rendered with SVO

[@tc1415]

Actually Lucas named Yoda after Yoshitaka Yoda (依田義賢) who was Japanese moviewriter.

[@FreyjaRKim]

@@tc1415Oh really? I never knew that. The bit about Yoda being named after Yoda-sensei. Thanks for the factoid.

[@marcogiuliocamurri]

I love the 70s/80s techno vibe along with a Japanese retro futuristic setting. We need a show in a setting like this!

[@Matt..S]

Watch any Kitano movie.

[@sayospecter6731]

C'mon, Visions... Do your magic!

[@WeatherVeinFilms]

Star Wars was sort of based off the Japanese film The Hidden Fortress, so this already exists!

[@LuisSierra42]

Lucas took a lot of elements from the hidden fortress

[@alecgolas8396]

The hidden fortress isn't that similar I don't think. Basically just the story follows two characters like R2-D2 and C-3PO, but they're not the protagonists.

[@LuisSierra42]

@@alecgolas8396 Yeah, that's one of the elements he took from it, using those characters as a framing device but also in the Hidden Fortress, they have to protect a princess

[@nocturnalwolf7559]

based off of buddhism

[@WeatherVeinFilms]

Yes! The dynamics of the characters are quite similar but also the tone of it matches Star Wars. It's a big, fun action-adventure movie and I really recommend it as an introduction to Kurosawa movies.

[@ballshippin3809]

The Star Wars storyline would actually make a good Takeshi Kitano Yakuza film

[@Cyclopz0rs]

I was getting strong takeshi kitano vibes at 0:09

[@user-kyouhouyoshida]

As a Japanese, It's so hilarious to me that every characters are speaking in 敬語（polite words）

[@chrisk9613]

Also, the Japanese sounds pretty unnatural. Probably google translate.

[@Matt..S]

Did the japanese dubbing add specific accents to characters to "fit" the characters from a japanese audience's perspective? They do this with german dubs

[@chrisk9613]

Honestly, to me it sounded like someone just ran it through Google Translate and then read it out loud, but not as a native Japanese speakers. The sentences also sound unnatural because of the vocabulary choices.@@Matt..S

[@danielbriones2938]

I'd say using DeepL would be a better choice for translating sentences, it translates stuff into sounding more natural. It still uses "anata" for "you" often though

[@flyingstapler1241]

@@danielbriones2938 ChatGPT is probably the best choice for translation because it'll actually know the characters' personalities to give fitting word choices

Interestingly, Toshiro Mifune, one of Japan and the world's most legendary actors was originally casted to play Obi-wan Kenobi but he turned down that role, so this imagining is not so far fetched

I genuinely love this concept. Maybe it could only ever work as a teaser but as it is, it’s perfect. The costumes and characters, how the shots are framed and especially that trickling synth line in the back. Top work.

[@demonflyingfox]

Thanks a lot!

[@K._Red]

Alright I would absolutely watch this movie

[@JimIBobIJones]

Given that Star Wars was heavily influenced by Kurosawa's films (New Hope's plot is literally a re-telling of Hidden Fortress in space) a Japanese setting is fitting.

[@FelixLotus2506]

A remake of one of your old version of Japanese Star Wars, but more update and more perfect, great job DemonFox!

[@demonflyingfox]

Thanks for noticing! The yakuza videos where always one of my personal favorites.

If ai gets powerfull enough in the next 15 years I'd straight up watch the entire trilogy in this format. Better than the new bullshit. Or Japanese directors need to find a loop hole around Disney and make this happen lol the 80's early 90's style is so sick

[@naished]

Big facts

[@pistonar]

If you haven't, watch The Hidden Fortress, Akira Kurosawa. It provides most of the principal characters for Star Wars. The story certainly isn't the same, but there are some points they match on.

[@verifeli]

They can find a loophole to recreate Speed Racer, Transformers, and Spiderman. I'm sure they could do it with Star Wars.

[@sew_gal7340]

Star wars was inspired by japanese mythology anyway
