The First Episode Of ‘Real Fake History’ Recounts The Battle Of Endor!

Briefly: I think I’ve found a new favourite YouTube series.

A few days back, Machinima launched Real Fake History, a 10-episode series that parodies the History Channel with “Ken Burns style,” shorts. The series recounts the greatest fictional battles and most inspiring stories in movies, TV, and video games, and it’s freaking awesome.

A new episode will launch every Tuesday, and will deliver the never before seen tales of those who witnessed these defining fictional moments.

I was laughing out loud throughout the deadpan first episode, and I really can’t wait to see what happens next week. In this week’s short, learn how “the Milennium Falcon’s mission was almost undone by two co-pilots who had no idea what Nien Numb was saying.”
