Fan's 8mm behind-the-scenes footage from the Return of the Jedi set [video]

Star Wars was bigger than ever when George Lucas started filming Return of the Jedi. Everything to do with filming was kept a secret. However, one group of fans were able to find out that a film by the name of "Blue Harvest" was filming in Buttercup Valley in the Arizona dessert and went down to check it out hoping that it would be more than a unknown film. Filmmaker Jeff Broz had brought along with him his 8mm camera and had it rolling for what turned out to be a fans dream come true.

Stumbling onto the set of Return of the Jedi, these fans were able to see a few of the Tatooine scenes being filmed. Although it took quite some time, Broz's video has finally hit the internet. It is just over 7 minutes long and has no sound but he was able to capture some amazing footage. You can see Boba Fett flying around, Luke taking on some Gamorrean Guards and precticing his kicking skills, R2-D2 shooting Luke's lightsaber from his head, and Slave Leia in action.

If you are a fan of the Star Wars franchise then this is definitely a fun video to watch! Since there is no sound, play some of your favorite Star Wars music as you watch!
