After watching several fan edit of the STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS trailer that was released last month, YouTube user Max Nicholson decided to get creative with footage from the trilogy prequel, and make a trailer for them that is in the same style as the latest look at the J.J. Abrams-directed installment of the sci-fi franchise. Nicholson says "One thing that always bugged me about the prequels — including the marketing — was how they gave away the big twist from Empire. So, I decided to make a video that reinforced Obi-Wan's original story to Luke in the first Star Wars movie."

It's not like the Episode I, II and III trailers were awful to begin with, however this is still a pretty sweet trailer for the prequels by way of THE FORCE AWAKENS, and I know there are a ton of fan-edited Star Wars trailers out there, but this one is definitely worth checking out.

STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS will be in theaters on December 18th.
