It's a story of two crime-fighting partners, one of
whom might, after years of service, become consumed
by the darkness. Sound familiar? That's the basic
premise of "True Detective." But it also is a handy
synopsis of the relationship between Obi-Wan Kenobi
and Darth Vader in the "Star Wars" saga. Once we
realized that, it only made sense to wonder what "True
Detective" might look like if it took place in a galaxy
far, far away. Thanks to this mash-up that puts "Star
Wars" characters in the "True Detective" main title
sequence, we never have to wonder again.
Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi take the place
of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as
both their younger and older selves, with appearances
by Anakin's tortured wife (Padme) and his daughter
(Princess Leia), who is quite literally a rebellious
teenager. But who, in this version, is the yellow king?
C-3P0 probably wouldn't be a bad guess. Check out
the mash-up, and hope HBO gives us a second season
of "True Detective" that can match this level of
awesomeness.
