Hello there!

I have been observing the topics over at the Lego Star Wars forum for a while now, and there was something that has been bugging me. Everytime people started discussions about Star Wars that were not related with Lego, they got silenced by mods for not posting these in the right thread. The problem is: There was no right thread! Therefore, I decided to open up this highly overdue topic so that the SW fans here on EB have a place to talk about their favorite saga! Discuss, ask questions, share news and rumors, and simply geek out!

Perhaps this could even be pinned? That would be great!

To start things off, here are some SW discussions of the hilarious kind:

Clerks (Note the soundtrack! )
Clerks 2 (This one's much better IMHO! )

And here is some news: One or two weeks ago, Samuel L. Jackson presented George Lucas with the Scream 2008 Icon Award on behalf of Comic Con! Click here to see the video and the awesome SW tribute that they showed on that night!

Enjoy! And may the force be with you!

It's probably a good idea. You should also add Robot Chicken's Star Wars spoof also.

Which one? And what about Blue Harvest? They were all funny Star Wars Spoofs. Clips from the G4 coverage of Star Wars Celebration IV would be good as well.

-Oorah.

Those aren't available for free online anywhere are they?

Yy! My thread is finally picking up!

As Big Cam said, there is no common place you can link to for that. If you have a link, feel free to post it. But then again, I doubt there are many people out there who have not seen it yet.

Yes they were pretty good. Did you know that they are making another one of ESB called Something, Something, Something, Dark Side? It's coming out in December and I can hardly wait to see it!



Another good SW parody is that from Animaniacs/Pinky & the Brain called "Star Warners". (Sorry, no link )

As for G4 coverage of CIV, I couldn't find much for it, and neither could I find much for the more recent Star Wars Spectacular at SDCC except for these shaky clips, but here is the official report.

I'm making a presentation on A New Hope for my Intro to Visual Effects class today, and I watched the whole Making Of for it. Did you know that one of FOX's biggest concerns during the production was that Chewie didn't have any pants?

True.

Yes, but I personally didn't know when it was coming out. Looking forward to it.

What, were they expecting a bunch of perverts in the audience? That's like making a bear wear pants, it just doesn't work.

[Big Cam]

OMG, I can't wait, I didn't know this was coming.

[JeffD984]

Haha Mort is Lando! He's got a lot of nerve...
Is that the chicken as Boba Fett?

[Oky]

Yup. Awesome idea IMO.

And wikipedia states that Carl will be Yoda and Joe will be a probe droid.

Btw, the title is based on this scene.

Here's a link to the first one Star Wars: Robot Chicken. It's actually split into three parts.

[Oky]

Thanks, Forresto. I forgot they had the whole thing on the official website.

Do you think I should make a SW parody index in the first post?

That's a good idea, and I would say go for it.

There's a million of them out there, so it will have a lot on it.

I just wouldn't list all the crappy fan-made things on Youtube. I would suggest only listing things like Family Guy or Robot Chicken for example, that are made by experts.

I am waiting until George Lucas decides to recreate it all in CGI and connecting the clone war stuff.

Blasphemey! no i'm just yanking your chain, but no that would be terrible. You don't mess with classic stuff.

I would totally be for that. But I really don't think he'll mess with the movies. I think the animated stuff is his way of stretching out and making a bigger impact while keeping new Star Wars fans entertained.
