You can wait all week for one funny Star Wars video and two come along on the same day. This time, it's care of Adidas, who has created a homage to the Cantina scene in Episode IV using its sponsored range of sports and music stars.

Naturally, you might wonder what the connection between Star Wars and Adidas actually is, but we only need to point you at this, the caped Darth Vader training jacket, and these themed trainers to make everything clearer.

Indeed, on a recent visit to the US, Pocket-lint saw a whole range of Star Wars tie-ins (or should that be Tie-fighters?). But, to be honest, we don't need a reason to bring you this ad, other than the fact that it's brilliant. Enjoy.
