The Death Star was an inside job!

and that wasn't Wedge

In the script, the line belongs to Wedge, but the actor is not Dennis Lawson, who portrayed Wedge.

From Wookiepedia:
Wedge Antilles - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki
In the film, Antilles was played by two actors: Colin Higgins and Denis Lawson, but both British actors were dubbed with the voice of American David Ankrum. Higgins portrayed Antilles during the Death Star briefing scene, but Lawson played the character in the battle scenes and was the actor credited in the role.[131] Higgins, used to television acting practices, had not memorized his lines, of which the Antilles character originally had several, closely and grew increasingly nervous and dispirited as he struggled during shooting. After one day of shooting, he was fired.[180] Lawson, who had originally been passed for the role in favor of Higgins, was brought in.[181]
 
That was great. Just enough mistakes, leaps of logic, and misinformation to create a valid doubt in an 'average' viewer's mind......were this real.
 
LOL Reminds me of the Pillows and Blankets episode of Community. Really well done!

Thanks for sharing!

Just what I was thinking. All the errors make it more believable. :thumbsup
 
I'm surprised nobody's brought up that the narrator repeatedly called Leia's home planet "Alderbron".
 
I was digging but the terrible Mission Impossible music took me right out of it.
 
Also the target shaft was not "two feet wide". It was two meters wide.

I'm pretty sure the errors were intentional -- it was supposed to be lampooning the 9/11 Loose Change "documentary," which is also filled with similar types of errors.
 
I know it's the same clip.I started a thread not knowing this was already on here, then someone moved it into this existing thread.they should of just deleted it..... Or just left it aloane.

You're right, they should've just deleted it, and shot you a PM letting you know.
