I’m not sure how much George Lucas spent to make Return of the Sith, but I’m betting it was more than $20K. That’s the amount Felux, spent to create a serious 40-minute adventure film, complete with spacecraft chases, lightsaber duels, extraterrestrial cityscapes, treasure-seeking Jedi and a rivalry-obsessed DarthVader. The quality is amazing – especially when you consider how much Felux spent.

Star Wars: Revelations, has become an Internet phenomenon. It has had nearly 1 million free downloads since it premiered last month on Felux’s Web site.

George Lucas says he hasn’t seen Revelations or many of the other fan-made tribute films, but he still considers himself a fan of their work.

“I’ve been pretty busy lately, so I haven’t seen them,” he says. “But I’m pleased that Star Wars inspires anyone to do something like that. I appreciate that kind of devotion.”

Other Star Wars sites offering the movie have been swamped. A disclaimer on TheForce.net reported that demand for Revelations “has blown out our bandwidth.”

This download link worked for me if you want to watch the film for yourself.
