20 Years Ago… In A Galaxy Far, Far, Away… REAL Darth Vader (JEJ) Does Standup Intro To George Lucas

20 years ago the first officially Lucasfilm sanctioned ‘Star Wars’ convention was held in Los Angeles. The convention was amazing, and to this day stands as the one greatest Star Wars fan event ever.

Many filmmakers in Hollywood today were fans at the convention, and I recently uncovered a rare videotaped introduction for George Lucas by none other than Darth Vader. (Yes, with actual lines recorded specifically for this event by James Earl Jones, not an impersonator…)

There’s so much more to tell about this event, and in the near future I hope to share more about it with everyone.

Until then, enjoy this little taste… Before the Menace… Before the Clones… Before the Revenge…

There was The STAR WARS Trilogy…
