How Weird Al Predicted ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’
- 6 years ago
“Weird Al Yankovic” predicted some 'Star Wars' success back in 1980!
After seeing “The Empire Strikes Back,” he wrote “Yoda”, a parody of The Kinks’ “Lola”.
The song predicted the future of Luke Skywalker and actor Mark Hamill, and he mostly got it right!
The long-term contract that I had to sign
Says I’ll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda...
Weird Al's "Yoda"
Sure enough, 2017's "The Last Jedi” features a ghost Yoda giving Luke advice about owning up to his failures.
