The Simpsons Meets Star Wars Video | Fantastic Simpsons Intro Spoof

The intro from the cult series The Simpsons is one of the cleverest around. We’ve seen a real life version of this classic opener before. Now everyone’s favorite TV opener has been given a new Star Wars makeover.

Animator Rich Cando brings all the greatest Star Wars characters to this fantastic parody. That’s right, there’s definitely no Jar Jar Binks here.

Instead you’ll find Yoda hiding in Bart/Luke Skywalker’s bag, and R2D2, not Maggie, scanned by the shop assistant. Barney Gumble’s appearance as Chewbacca makes perfect sense.

As a Simpsons and Star Wars fan (and let’s face it, who isn’t?), I got a real chuckle out of this.
