Star Wars Subway Attacks

Improv Everywhere Star Wars Video Stages a Galactic Takeover on the Metro

The Improv Everywhere Star Wars video stages a galactic hostage takeover on the subways of New York City. Princess Leia is just casually reading her Galactic Rebellion for Dummies book when the Storm Troopers rudely interrupt her subway ride to kidnap and take her to Darth Vader.

The best part about the Improv Everywhere Star Wars video is the innocent bystanders who become increasingly amused by the public display of Star Wars love, even getting their kids involved as they watch the showdown go on. Very clever!
