You have to flip the translation to English.

On Channel 13 in Chile, the Star Wars characters pretended to grab beers when the movies went into advertising

Quote

The curious advertising campaign that was created on the occasion of the premiere of these films. 

 

Well yes, in the original films these three characters took a moment to drink beer, but don't worry, it's normal that you don't remember having seen those scenes at some point because the truth is that they weren't real . However, those who will know this curiosity best are those who are reading us from Chile and have watched Channel 13.

 

In 2003 and 2004 was when the original trilogy of Star Wars films premiered on this channel and they had a very peculiar way of advertising. The best thing is that you watch the following videos first and below you will find the explanation for everything.

 

As you can see, the television network did not cut the broadcast of the film, but directly created a montage to sneak advertising space into them , giving the impression that they are scenes that correspond to these feature films. This series of advertisements, with the name La Fuerza es con Cerveza Cristal, were created exclusively to be shown in this comical way.

 

Naturally, Emperor Palpatine would never have had a beer in front of Luke and Darth Vader, just as Master Yoda would never have allowed Luke to take a break just to drink a can of Cristal beer, although it is indisputable that these ads give off great originality in the way the drink is promoted.

Not entirely appropriate for this thread, but there's not really anywhere for it, and it deserves to be seen. 

Really good interview with Jake Lloyd's mother (kid Anakin from Episode 1). Goes into his whole life, his troubles with the law and his medical issues. Absolutely worth reading.

The only real issue I have with the original cut is the first time we see the emperor. It’s a woman with monkey eyes (still weirds me out), and the dialogue isn’t as powerful as it was in the remastered versions.

Imagine what they could have made back if they had actually made good films.

From the movie, "Undercover Brother."

It's probably in Lucas' deal when he sold the IP.  They can't release the "original" versions. 

Might have to wait until he dies.

Used to have them, on VHS.
