Line 245:

A 20-minute mockumentary-style movie, focusing on the "true" story of R2-D2's life. This was actually an alternate, made-for-fun movie by some of the crew of ''Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones''. This was, unlike the other made-for-fun mockumentary, released on DVD.

The film is set between ''Revenge of the Sith'' and ''A New Hope''. It is notable for being one of the most ambitous fanfilms that, while expensive by most standards, took a large step in making filmmaking available to the consumer level.

*In Episodes IV, V, and VI, a relatively unseen creature attacks one or more of the main characters (Luke in IV, C-3PO and R2-D2 in V, and Lando in VI).

*The middle episode of each trilogy features a chase through an asteroid field.

*In the final episode of each trilogy, the enemy's massive command ship is destroyed by crashing into a giant metal sphere (the ''Invisible Hand'' in Episode III and the ''Executor'' in Episode VI).
