Georgia WR Chris Conley is an unabashed Star Wars geek. What started as a simple attempt to get some mock lightsaber battles going around campus eventually morphed into this: Retribution, a fan film with some ridiculously good production values.
Written and directed by Conley, with major production help from Georgia football videographer Frank Martin, Retribution stars Conley as Khari Vion, a Sith lord exiled for, as the opening crawl explains, trying to force students to wear jorts.
The plot is secondary to the action, a running battle across Sanford Stadium and the UGA campus between Conley and his former Jedi master and replacement apprentice. Look out for the cameos from Todd Gurley, mascot Hairy Dawg, and, at the 15-minute mark, an oblivious Mark Richt.

Very awesome job by connellky. It was better than attack of the clones. The main good guy was way better then harden christianson. Lol.
The shot of richt sitting on the bench with headphones on while lasers are whizzing by was hilarious

Gurely with the superman music was awesome.
If a part two were made, making auburn the imperial capital would take it over the top. Making Cam Newton a part of that would be even better.

That was awesome.
Gurley as superman and Mark Richt's cameo were fricking golden.
Does that little necklace thing have some importance to the football team?

One of the comments from the Deadspin article.

Khari Vion, a Sith lord exiled for, as the opening crawl explains, trying to force students to wear jorts
Lawyer: George! Unauthorized fan film project reported on Deadspin! Should we send a takedown notice?
George Lucas: What's the movie about?
Lawyer: Something about a Sith lord who is exiled because he wants everyone on the planet to wear jorts. Sounds silly, I know, but you know how protective we are of our property.
George Lucas: "Jorts"?
Lawyer: Jean shorts.
George Lucas: Take no action.
Lawyer: Really? Why?
George Lucas: For Christ's sake, ever since Phantom Menace everyone has given me shite about my explanation for the Force. I'm thrilled someone out there wholeheartedly accepts the notion the Jedi do what they do because of their genes.
