Mon Dieu! Star Wars Made in France

StarWars.com Team | January 13, 2010

From a country that loves its mimes and Jerry Lewis, it shouldn’t be surprising that this vintage video from 1977 features a gaggle of dancing Darth Vaders and C-3POs.

If droids dream, this is probably it.

    “I grow tired of asking this, so it will be the last time. Where are my ballet slippers?”

    This is one the scariest things I’ve seen in a long time. The worst part was when we first saw the Vaders and they seemed to be trying to be seductive. They then seemed to flash us with their capes. And C-3PO’s skin tight metallic leotard left little to the imagination. Only the French.

    Once again this proves that the French have no shame.

    That was the greatest moment in TV history.

    Personally I think the French just ruined star wars in the making of that film.
    It is horrible to watch and makes me think that the French have no respect for Star Wars. The only dancing in star wars should during a light saber duel.

    LOL It’s like a train wreck! You know it’s going to be horrible but you just can’t look away!!!! Too funny!

    ICK. But I do kinda like the Vaders landing like bats on the planet at about 2:40 – it’s Darth Mynock!!

    Well, this was an interesting way to start my morning. . .

    Don’t say French disrespect Star Wars. It would be as stupid as saying the US are all fat and Conservatives. I guess there are just bad people doing horrible things (just like this video) in every country… Don’t blame my country for this!! Just blame the guy!

  12. avatar darthsmith says:

    it looks a liberacce dream about the things we love most,like most of us would have said…merde!!!

  13. avatar THX_1337 says:

    Is this what they use at Gitmo when interrogating suspected terrorists? This is TORTURE. The only way it could be worse? Jar Jar.

  14. avatar Taco-Bot says:

    Breaks new ground for terrible. c-3po would never dance like that.

  15. avatar MeccaP says:

    Oh my I would like to see 20 boba fetts… LOL

  16. avatar Tom Boone says:

    First, I think we shouldn’t be disrespectful of either the French or Conservatives! Second, though it is horrible, it’s absolutely no worse than the Donny and Marie bit from the same era!

  17. shut him up or shut him down!!!

    this is so,so strange!

  19. avatar The Perfume Flavored Moose says:

    This makes me sad. I dont get why everyone flew up and landed on buildings in a city! This is a disgrace to Vader and a disgrace to 3-P0

  20. avatar chris says:

    Goldenrod got moves!

  21. avatar Stéfan says:

    I’m French and I’d like to say that this video is not supported by all French. Which is sad. Because it’s awesome. It’s even superior to the Star Wars movies.

  22. avatar Aubrie Kortosse' says:

    May the Force be with us. I was so disturbed I had to turn it off before I went postal. I don’t blame the French for this, only the insane creature who created it. Some people have no respect for Star Wars anymore

  23. avatar obi alex kenobi says:

    horrible hold on…….where is the bucket

  24. avatar DarthTM1138 says:

    Ironically, they got the Vader/3PO connectoin before we did!

  25. avatar Max says:

    WTF…
    If this were good dancing, made sense, had good costumes, and used different characters (C3P0 and Vader never even met!) this would be cool…

  26. What is happening here no really are they making fun of starwars or what.(AKWARD)

  27. avatar Anakin H joiner says:

    what the heck WAS that?!

  28. avatar Mitzi Soorley says:

    AAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!! IT BURNS!!!!!!!

  29. avatar Max says:

    Better than the prequels…
