The linked video (cinemastix) runs through the ideas (which others had come up with) and how they’re actually applicable to Star Wars because Lucas said they were actually more like silent films, based more on their music and visuals than dialogue.
Now no one needs to be told the dialogue in Star Wars isn’t the main attraction … but I’d never thought about them as silent films let alone actually watching them that way. I’d kinda be into trying that out, at least maybe for ESB.
And then there’s the idea of a Black and White samurai version of the prequels! Which is a thing (with Japanese dub) … and well that actually looks legit!

Cool, but I wish they actually showed clips without the narrator talking over it.
Yea, it was bit more of a cluttered video than I would have liked too. Maybe copyright issues were on their mind? Still, I had no idea bout any of this. I can imagine a bigger deeper dive on the ideas though!
That’s what I was thinking. “Great idea!.. why do these guys not show instead of tell, and tell, and tell, and tell.”
That’s great - there’s a lot in that 10 minutes to make you reconsider all the storytelling angles in Star Wars.
