Bucketheads is an upcoming Star Wars fan series telling the adventures of a quad of stormtroopers. The first part was a fan film that was released in 2018, and now, we will get a full series in the near future! How exciting is that?
We’re making a whole Bucketheads series that follows Nova Squad during the final days of the Empire leading up to the battle of Jakku. The series will feature five 20-30 minute episodes chronicling their original story as it unfolds during one of the most interesting backdrops in all of Star Wars.
I love that they included Dylan Thomas’ poem “Do not go gentle into that good night” (written in 1947) with the trailer. It just fits perfectly.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
