STAR WARS Fan Film Awards - Watch the 7 Impressive Short Film Winners

Lucasfilm has announced the winners of the 2016 Star Wars Fan Film Awards, and they've released the short films of the seven winners for you to watch, which I've embedded for you below.

I imagine there were a ton of entries this year, and it probably wasn't an easy task to narrow all of those down to the seven winners, but they did it, and there are some entertaining and impressively made films here for you to watch. 

I think it's great that Lucasfilm encourages the fans to make these movies. It always cool to see the talent, time, love, and creativity that the fans put into these films. I hope you enjoy the films that won the competition! 

Lucasfilm and StarWars.com are proud to present the winners of The Star Wars Fan Film Awards 2016 — a celebration of fandom and a galaxy far, far away! We are continually amazed by the creativity of Star Wars fans, and this year’s entries truly dazzled and delighted us. Please see the full list of winners below and be sure to watch their impressive — or, most impressive — films, ranging from action to comedy to animation.
Thank you once again to all who entered. May the Force (of filmmaking) be with you!
