Star Wars spoof.
A Long Time Ago In A Galaxy Far, Far Away...
Well actually it was only thirty years ago, on America a guy called George Lucas decided to make a film called Star Wars. Then he made another one. Then another one. And then he just sat on his rich fat ass for fifteen years and did sweet f*** all. But all those Mansions don't pay for themselves so he's back with Episodes One, Two and... Star Warz: Episode Three, The Clamer for Merchandise. It is a time of galactic upset. The Imperial forces have flooded the market with crap Star Wars merchandise. This has pissed off the Rebal Forces no end. Chapter 1 Deep in space, the Death Star floats, I giant Coka Cola billboard rotates in top. Deep within, a major battle rages on between the Storm Troopers and Rebal forces. A Storm Trooper's ray gun runs out of ammo, so he removes another from it's original packages. Meanwhile, R2-D2 and C-3PO run through out the fortress. R2-D2: Beep, Beep, Bop, Beep, Beep. C-3PO: No, R2, I am not running like a big girly droid! R2-D2: Beep, Beep, Beep. C-3PO: Same to you, little robotic terd. The two make it to Princess Leia's cell. C-3PO: Your royale highness, thank heavens your safe and well. Princess Leia: Don't patronise me, RoboBoy. Just because you were built like a man and you think like a man does not mean you are a man. Your more like a cross between Elton John and a vaccum cleaner. Your made of tin and you suck. C-3PO: Do you have to rescue her? R2-D2: Beep, Bop, Bop, Bop, Bop, Beep. C-3PO: Yes, I suppose she is in The Empire Strikes Back. R2-D2: Ah, but she's not in The Phantom Menace, Liam Neeson plays the princess in that one. Princess Leia: Are you quite finished, Tin Man and Dexter from perfect match? R2-D2: Beep, Beep. C-3PO: Princess there isn't just time, what have you found out about The Death Star? Princess Leia: Well 3POQ or whatever your called, it's like a huge factory pumping out low quality Star Wars merchandise twenty-four hours a day. This for example is the R2-D2 action figure. Leia holds up what appears to be an empty VB Beer can with half a tennis ball stuck to the top and two plastic eyeball keychains glued to either side. C-3PO: Good lord. Princess Leia: I don't suppose your interested in seeing yours... Leia holds up C-3PO's action figure (Trust me, you don't wanna know what it looks like.) C-3PO: Ahhh! (More coming soon!) |
Where are those mighty robots from Battlestar Galactica when you need them?

You do realize that while he didn't do any more Star Wars films for many years, that he's responsible for many many other movies. That he either wrote or produced. And the money that the Star Wars saga made, was also used to create things that made making movies easier for other directors.
Industrial Light and Magic, the premiere effects company in Hollywood. Their track record is all thanks to Lucas that had the company started so he could do the effects for the first Star Wars film. Just look at how many other films have used the tools and work that Lucas pioneered. Not to mention their Computer Effects work in the late 80's and early 90's. The kind of effects WETA delievered for LOTR's may have been years off, if not for the early work by Lucasfilm. THX Sound. Digital Cameras. Hunders of other things that all came about thanks to Lucas. So while you may think he just sat on his ass for 15 years, you would be very very wrong in that assumption. Without Lucas the film technology that we have today would not be possible. So, even if your being spoofy, just remember that Star Wars is not the only thing that Lucas is responsible for. |
Lucas gave the world Howard the Duck.
|
Actually it was Marvel comics who gave birth to Howard.
|
Well, Lucas produced that mess. There's Howard on his hands too.

Star Wars is a spoof in itself.. :o

No it's not. It's one of the foundations of Sifi culture.

Amen, TMB. :)
Artoo-Detoo: *chirps* Seethreepio: I am not a dork, Artoo! Stop calling me that! Artoo: *chirps again* Seethreepio: *turns away* Oh...buzz off. *Artoo then proceeds to zap the crud out of him* :lol: Heh...joke a guy friend and I do every time we call each other. |
As a die-hard Star Wars fan, I must say this topic was born of ignorance.
|
Well, it is a spoof, so I'm not saying anything. :D
|
Lets not forget, Lucas also made the Indiana Jones Trilogy with the help of Steven Spielberg

I enjoy the new ones but they don't even come close to the old ones. Honestly they don't even FEEL like Star Wars movies to me.

The new Star Wars films are pretty good. Well, Episode 2 is pretty good. Episode I is a very terrible piece of crap - Star Wars or otherwise. Completely overrated.

The only thing I've liked about the new Star Wars movies was Yoda finally getting off his muppet butt and whooping somebody. Everything else seems like an excuse to cash in on the name value.

I don't care much for Hayden Christiansen's consant angst and whineyness, but I suppose that very well could just be what they were going for. If that's the case, it's Lucas' fault he pisses me off so much.

Piet-"My Lord, I trust your meeting with the Emporer went well. Lord Vader..are...are you crying?" Vader-"It's not fair Piet!! Alls I want is to be the Emporer and the Emporer is holding me back!! It's all his fault!! I'm going to my room! I hate you all forever!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!" and why it would be hysterical to see a spin off of that, Star Wars would have sucked! Why couldn't they have just made Anakin a badass, like Vader, instead of that light saber toting turd? |
He's going to get that way eventually you know. I think it would be tacky if they just made him go straight from a troubled child right into a homicidal dictator, with nothing in between. Granted, some points of the film are corny, but I think it's necessary for character development, just so it doesn't look like too much of a suddent jump. But yeah, I'm waiting for the real Vader to arise as well.

My only problem with the prequels...
Not enough Jar Jar Binks. |
