It’s a slow news day folks but hey, we have some long overdue Star Wars news that you’ve been so deprived of late… sigh. A new trailer for Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 has been released, and to be fair, it actually looks quite interesting.
Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 gives us 9 short videos from various animation houses that miraculously seem to have been given free rein to add their own unique take on the galaxy far, far away. Imagine Love Death + Robots but with lightsabers, the Force, and pew-pews aplenty.
Volume 1 was comprised solely of Japanese anime and I’ll be honest, it completely fell off my radar. However, this trailer has piqued my interest so I’m going to track it down.
This time around though, Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 is going worldwide and that includes a short from British stop-motion legends, Aardman. As you can expect, it looks quirky and innocently silly and could be a much-needed refreshing break from the current Star Wars norm.
