Cool Videos: The Empire invades Los Angeles in this fan-made Star Wars short

Some of you may have already seen this video, but I still feel it is worth sharing. Kaipotainment (the same peeps who do the X-Cats videos) has created a very awesome short called "Star Wars: Invasion Los Angeles." It's pretty much Jonathan Liebesman's BATTLE: LOS ANGELES, but shorter, and featuring Imperial Forces invading the City of Angels instead of generic looking aliens.

The special effects are a little spotty and definitely not on par with what we'll be getting in STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS, but it's still a kick ass fan made video in my opinion. If you ever imagined what an attack on a major U.S. city by the Empire would look like as a kid (or even as an adult; yup I'm guilty), then you will really dig this short.

The Empire is not pleased with the Lakers' record this year:

STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS hits theaters on December 18, 2015.
