“Rise Lord Tater, Rise!”

The annual Star Wars Fan Movie Challenge Awards were handed out last night. I think my favourite award winner is The Eyes of Darth Tater, a clever fan film that combines puppetry and animation to re-enact the finale scenes of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith using Mr. Potato Head figures.

For more fun with Star Wars toys check out the stop-motion short Incident at Toshi Station. You can see all of the Star Wars Fan Movie Challange Award winners and nominees on Atom Films.

30/5/07 Update: The Official Star Wars Blog has an interview with Eyes of Darth Tater director Lee Vehe.
