Pretty Cool. A group of voice actors doing a reading of Star Wars recently at the Emerald City Comicon.

I'm loving this.

I'm not one to to sit for an hour and twenty minutes watching YouTube ... but this just may get me to do it.

For those of you asking, "What's the big deal?" it is a bunch of voice actors reading the Star Wars radio play in-character (i.e., Yakko, Wakko, Pinky, The Brain, the cast of Futurama, Batman, Powerpuff Girls, various celebrities).

I L-O-V-E Christopher Walken as R2-D2.

That was great! They did another reading from other classic movies:

How awesome would it be if they turned this into a weekly or bi-weekly pod cast. They could do some radio plays for Star Trek movies, Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5 and even some shitty ones like Battlefield Earth

On a somewhat related note, the old Star Wars Radio Drama that played on the radio some 30 years ago is now being featured for free download by the Science Fiction Theater podcast:

They are podcasting an episode a week and are nearly done with the original radio drama version of the first movie. (Not sure if TESB and ROTJ radio dramas will be next.)
