Star Wars is an American epic space opera multimedia franchise created by George Lucas, which began with the eponymous 1977 film and quickly became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon.

The Star Wars franchise depicts the adventures of characters "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away", in which humans and many species of aliens (often humanoid) co-exist with robots (typically referred to in the films as 'droids'), who may assist them in their daily routines; space travel between planets is common due to lightspeed hyperspace technology. The planets range from wealthy, planet-wide cities to deserts scarcely populated by primitive tribes. Virtually any Earth biome, along with many fictional ones, has its counterpart as a Star Wars planet which, in most cases, teem with sentient and non-sentient alien life. The franchise also makes use of other astronomical objects such as asteroid fields and nebulae. Spacecraft range from small starfighters, to huge capital ships such as the Star Destroyers, to space stations such as the moon-sized Death Stars. Telecommunication includes two-way audio and audiovisual screens, holographic projections, and HoloNet (internet counterpart).

The universe of Star Wars is generally similar to ours but its laws of physics are less strict allowing for more imaginative stories. One result of that is a mystical power known as the Force which is described in the original film as "an energy field created by all living things ... [that] binds the galaxy together". The field is depicted as a kind of pantheistic god. Through training and meditation, those whom "the Force is strong with" exhibit various superpowers (such as telekinesis, precognition, telepathy, and manipulation of physical energy). It is believed nothing is impossible for the Force. The mentioned powers are wielded by two major knightly orders at conflict with each other: the Jedi, peacekeepers of the Galactic Republic who act on the light side of the Force through non-attachment and arbitration, and the Sith, who use the dark side by manipulating fear and aggression. While Jedi Knights can be numerous, the Dark Lords of the Sith (or 'Darths') are intended to be limited to two: a master and their apprentice.

Force-wielders are very limited in numbers in comparison to the population. The Jedi and Sith prefer the use of a weapon called a lightsaber, a blade of plasma that can cut through virtually any surface and deflect energy bolts. The rest of the population, as well as renegades and soldiers, use plasma-powered blaster firearms. As a result of galaxy-scaled politics (involving republics, empires, kingdoms, alliances, etc.), all this weaponry is made use of in various military conflicts during which most Star Wars material takes place. In the outer reaches of the galaxy, crime syndicates such as the Hutt cartel are dominant. Bounty hunters are often employed by both gangsters and governments. Illicit activities include smuggling.

This was the smoothest restart ive ever seen. I didn’t even realise at first.

[DarkSpace-dydx]

Sam Witwer's jokes never get old, just like those younglings

[jamesmorton]

I need this man to reprise his role as Starkiller. Live action and another game. Imagine him and Cal Kestis crossing paths.

[Blockxolotl]

DARTH MAUL VOICE ACTOR IS ALSO A HALF LIFE FAN???? OMG

[cobaltprime]

Sam played Maul masterfully. He’s able to get that raw emotion in his voice. Sadness and rage in the same breath. It helps he gets the Force and what the Dark Side does to his characters. Like how he described Starkiller constructing his lightsaber and being forceful and with anger.

[avedis]

Yea Darth Maul plotline, cool... HIS T-SHIRT!! HE'S A HALF LIFE

[cerindraco]

I remember seeing sam in smallville as a kid and then freaking out when he became starkiller and now hes darth maul... hes come so far...

[BeckRoyal]

Sam wearing a black mesa shirt is awesome

[dlolive]

To be fair we all talk about him being cut in half when general grievous is literally a cyborg with a heart that used to be flesh and blood

[RazKob]

Sam Witwer rocking the Black Mesa T-shirt makes all even better

[moxxie_ivan]

I just met with Sam last week super awesome, nice, sweet guy, I showed him my old Captain Rex helmet that still has the og batteries and showed it still worked. Sam was literally excited to see it. I asked if I could give him a hug and he said “yeah of course.” This man right here is the reason why I love Star Wars and why my childhood was awesome.

[icmthrawn]

I love that he's wearing a Black Mesa shirt.

[ogpaulbonion]

Whoever looped this timed it so well that I watched it for 4 minutes before realizing it was the same video over and over…. Crazy af

[Deft-]

He's awesome as the voice of Deacon St.John from Days Gone video game!!

[jasonsimpson]

Live Sam. I miss Being Human and I was hoping he'd be at least in the conversation for Dr Strange. He needs to be in the MCU somehow, imo.

[c.david.k]

Omg, it took me watching this twice but I realized I recognized him because of his role as Mr.Hyde in OUAT

[ZeusNightmare]

Why has this man not been casted as Starkiller?!! Gawddd damnnn! Make the series now pls

[logc]

“Uuummm yea, he got cut in half -what’s up with that?-“😂

[osmacar]

Didn't realise it looped. Damn that was smoothly done, truly seamless. Bravo.

[beneckendorff]

Duuuude he is such an amazing nerd it’s so cool. The way he loves talking about Star Wars WHILE wearing a Black Mesa T-shirt is just amazing.
