Star Wars Episode VII Trailer Goes Viral; Turns Out It's A Fake, Even Though It's a Brilliant One

It's hard to tell how Disney-owned Lucasfilm will be going about releasing the next wave of Star Wars films. We don't know much, but we do know that there will be multiple films based in the Star Wars universe, both on the larger story and based on individual characters. But, fans want more Star Wars and they want it now. They want it so bad, in fact that they're willing to make it themselves.

The trailer you're going to see is not real. It's been made with music from Lucasfilm, newly created text panels, and a Costume Test of a character from the video game Knights of the Old Republic. That being said, it's fantastic.

This footage is actually from a costume test from the Star Wars: The Old Republic video game. You can see the original video here:

 

This is the level of devotion and healthy obsession shown by fans of the Star Wars universe. This is how important this next film is to the public.

Unfortunately, it's likely that with Disney at the helm, nothing so terrifying as this will ever see the big screen. With the direction the Star Wars movies have gone in even at their darkest, there will not be blood. It's the fans, again, that will need to take charge if there's ever going to be a Darth Malgus outside of a video game.
