There's actually a tool for that

Here's the result of putting the wikipedia plot summary through that tool with a little imagination:

There is a lot of fighting happening in space. People pretending to be bad for the Good Team have taken plans for the Bad Team's Death Star, a much armed space ball which is able to kill an entire ball of rock. The good team's lead woman (GTLW) has the plans, but her space car is taken by Bad Team forces under the lead of the very bad lead man in black (VBLMIB). Before she is taken, the GTLW hides the plans in the memory of a not-real -but-real living thing (NRBRLT) along with a talking note. The NRBRLT runs a very dry ball of rock with another talking NRBRLT. The NRBRLTs are taken by little people, who give them to a couple who make water and their son from another mum (SFAM). While cleaning the small NRBRLT, the SFAM somehow starts part of the talking note from the GTLW, in which she asks for help from an old man who is her only hope. The next morning, the SFAM finds the small NRBRLT searching for the old man. They find an old quiet man who lives in the middle of the dry empty place who shows himself to be the old man from the talking note. The old man tells the SFAM of his days as a Fighting Power-Man, people who used to stop fighting with great powers which come from something called The Force, who were all but wiped out by the Bad Team. His uncle's story was a lie, the son from another mum learns that his father fought beside the old man as a Fighting Power-Man. The old man tells the SFAM that the VBLMIB was his old student who turned to the dark side of the Force and killed his father. The old man then presents the SFAM with his father's fighting thing - a light-stick. They are able to hear the whole talking note from the GTLW in which she asks him to take the Death Star plans to her home ball of rock and give them to her father to look at. The old man asks the SFAM to come with him to the ball of rock and learn the ways of the Force. The SFAM says no, but changes his mind after finding that bad fighting men searching for the NRBRLTS have killed his home and killed his aunt and uncle. The old man and the SFAM pay a man of little order (MOLO) and his friend with a lot of hair (FWALOH) to take them to the ball of rock in the MOLO's space car, the Hundred Times Ten Year Flying Animal (HTTYFA). Upon the HTTYFA's arriving at the place of the ball of rock, the group find that the ball of rock has been killed by order of the Death Star's lead leading person as a show of power. The HTTYFA is taken by the Death Star's hidden pulling thing and brought into its big parking lot. While the old man goes to turn off the hidden pulling thing, the SFAM finds that the Bad Team are hiding the good team's lead woman on the space ball, and with the help of the MOLO and the FWALOH, lets her go. After several escapes, the group makes its way back to the HTTYFA. The old man turns off the hidden pulling thing, and on the way back to the HTTYFA, he gets into into a light-stick fight with the VBLMIB . Once he is sure the others can escape, the old man allows himself to be killed. The HTTYFA escapes the Death Star, without knowing carrying a tracking thing, which the Bad Team follows to the Good Teams hidden place on another ball of rock. The Good Team look at the Death Star's plans and find a not so strong place which is a way to the space ball's big power house. The SFAM joins the Good Team's attacking team, while the MOLO takes his money for helping the Old Man and friends and plans to leave, even though the SFAM asks that he stay and help. In the fighting, the Good Team lose a lot of people after several attacks do not work, leaving the SFAM as one of the few space car flying people left living. The VBLMIB leads a team of TIE fighting cars and gets ready to attack the SFAM's space car, but the MOLO returns and fires on the Bad Team, sending the VBLMIB flying away in a crazy way. Helped by the old man's living but dead hidden body, the SFAM uses the Force and manages to kill the Death Star seconds before it can fire on the Good Team's home. Back on the ball of rock, the GTLW gives the SFAM, the MOLO and the FWALOH a present for being very good.
