AI Creates a Weird Wes Anderson Star Wars Movie Trailer

Leave it up to the robots to create Star Wars, they said. It will be awesome, they said… Actually, I don’t know if anyone said that, but someone wanted AI to create a Star Wars movie trailer… And it did…

Wes Anderson belongs to a group of filmmakers that emerged in the 1990s with signature, unique stylistic flair that rose from small budget independent films to major award season contenders. Anderson might be scoffed by the coffee shop hipster crowd, but his kaleidoscopic approach to cinema is something no one else will ever be able to master.

It seemed inevitable that Anderson and AI would be paired together to make some sort of weird amalgam of cinematic art. YouTuber Curious Refuge is the mind behind this pairing. Check out the description they provided for this trailer below!

Welcome to the “Galactic Menagerie,” a whimsical and visually stunning fan-made fake trailer that reimagines the classic Star Wars universe through the eccentric lens of Wes Anderson. This enchanting mashup brings together iconic Star Wars characters with Anderson’s trademark symmetrical compositions, pastel color palettes, and quirky humor. Journey to a galaxy far, far away and experience a unique adventure featuring Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Darth Vader, and other fan favorites.

Watch as they navigate the Galactic Menagerie, a universe filled with eccentric creatures, charming droids, and peculiar locations reminiscent of Anderson’s beloved films such as “Moonrise Kingdom” and “The Grand Budapest Hotel.”

What do you think of this version of Star Wars? Sounds like a nice candidate for season three of Star Wars: Visions??
