This TIE Fighter Animated Short Film is Insanely Epic

Remember the days of hand-drawn animation?

2D animated films, in America, seem like a thing of the past but a short film on YouTube by Paul Johnson combines drawn animated style with the world of Star Wars and a heavy dose of style that screams Heavy Metal.

This short film entitled "TIE Fighter" is an Empire focused film that follows the pilots of TIE fighters, instead of watching them be blown up by Rebel pilots. It features the music of Zakir Rahman and sound effects by Joseph Leyva. Instead of talking about how awesome this piece is, how about we just shut up and let you watch it? Warning, this may blow your socks off.

According to his YouTube page, Paul "OtaKing77077" Johnson spent four years of weekends putting this piece together and getting it ready for the net. All Johnson asks for in return is for you to share it if you love it.
