The Chewbacca costume alone is worth watching for.
If you're not familiar with the concept of 'sweding', it's basically the idea of recreating films or TV shows or iconic pop-culture moments with a tiny fraction of the original's budget while also staying as true to them as possible. And this version of the trailer for 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' is an incredible example of it.
This shot-for-shot remake comes from the people at Dumb Drum and is all the more impressive for their inventiveness considering they were dealing with a mega-budget space caper that just happens to be one of the most anticipated films of all time.
If you're so inclined (or merely haven't watched the trailer so many times you've memorised it like us), you can also watch the original and the sweded version side-by-side below.
