For me I wouldn't change the English version for anything else. I also thought that dubbing would take away a lot of the original feeling. But the French one sounds pretty good too.

In my opinion it goes like this:
1. English
2. German
3. Spanish
4. French

I couldent listen to the Spanish version without picturing Antonio Banderas and cracking up

English version for the win, obviously. The German and especially the French weren't that bad, though they cracked me up quite a bit :lol:

And I think Vader in both the German and the French versions sounds like the evil/powerful old guy that always seems to be present in all anime (not that I've seen that much, but in everything I've seen that wasn't dubbed, there's always that old guy that always sounds and talks exactly the same, and the German and French Vaders are doing it too).

Good thing there isn't a Swedish version though. I think there are Swedish version of the original radio drama (or maybe they did their own) where they even translated the names of the characters. So Chewbacca would be literary (in Swedish) "chew back" and Wedge Antilles was "[The] wedge Antilles". Maybe, if they did decide to dub it, they'd cast Sven Wollter as Vader. That'd be so fucking hilarious :lol: :twisted:
