The fan dub was based on a pirated bootleg DVD of
Star Wars: Episodio III - La venganza de los sith (2005) bought by blogger
Jeremy Winterson while he was living in China. The DVD contained a leaked workprint of the film, with English (misspelled as "Englsih") subtitles. Rather than faithful transliterations of the film's actual dialogue, these "Englsih" subtitles were a mix of primitive machine translations based on the film's Chinese dialogue and the work of someone with little to no grasp on the English language. The text was comically mangled with often very little connection to the original lines, featuring constant improper grammar, misused and nonexistent words, butchered and inconsistent character names, even accidental sexual innuendo and swearing, as well as lines seemingly made up by the translator. The translation became a popular source of internet memes, most famously Darth Vader's dramatic cry of "Nooo!" that was rendered as "Do not want!" in the subtitles. Years after it became public, a group of voice actors recorded and released a dubbed version of the film with the garbled translations for fun. The full dub gained over 12 million views on YouTube before Disney took it down in September 2024.
