the crimes of george lucas ('90s on)

No, I meant it literally.

"Climb into my dead alien mammal's intestines, baby."

Some biizarre fanfic niche could come out of this:

"Now this is pod racing!" shouted George, where by 'pods' Lucas meant his testicles.

would you like to see my pink lightsaber?

I'll try not to shoot first.

you came in that thing etc

this little one's not worth the effort

If Lucas actually used any of these lines, you can bet he went Han Solo later that night.

these are the balls you're looking for

remember your failure at the cave

The force is strong with this one *points to pink lightsaber*

ok guys.

but Daaaaaaaaaaaaaad

"Slimy? Mudhole?"

"I thought these things smelled bad...on the outside"

"I am your father"

lucas cgi'd the sex scenes into that anecdote later

it's just a matter of green wall paper, really

"Well, I guess you don't know everything about women yet."

If he really likes you, you're invited back for a hot dog picnic in the arboretum

couldn't watch more than a minute tbh

Jesus.

i'm reminded of shatner on snl, his remarks about taking a fun diversion and turning it in to a colossal waste of time.

i think that looks kind of fun, actually

"its a wrap" made me lol

no.

This feels like right-wing comedy (i.e. something with the vague structure of a joke for people with no discernable sense of humor).

No offense to your LOLs, HOOS.

I'm so tired of all these Star Wars.

It's funny because the Emperor is an evil, serious guy in the movies but here he's talking like he's a normal person! Funny!

No, no it's not. It's just tired.

Quite apart from the writing, i'm pretty sure that's the ugliest animation i've ever seen

this is what star wars fans asked for tbh

like 30 years of terrible internet memes and "haha r2d2 ovenmitts!!!" and rewarding seth macfarlane and kevin smith and seth green and jon stewart and south park for "More like on the ICE PLANET HOTH" jokes and this is what you get.

i feel sorry for anyone who's mad at this and/or didn't see it coming.

oh noes everyones otaku

I'd kinda like to see the critical community punk Lucas by really embracing this and encouraging him to focus his energy on more comedic projects. Just to see how nightmarish it could get.

Happened already:

TBF, that dead guy's weird penis is kinda funny.

^^^this, far and away. its one thing to churn out crappy product, lots of aging directors do that (hell, young ones too!), but deliberately screwing up your past work - so that NO ONE can ever enjoy it again, that's a whole other level of unforgivable.

omg this (and the consequent utility data posts) killing me all over again right now

thank you, internet

It it still so, so perfect. I will treasure this thread forever for that.

like 30 years of terrible internet memes

woah hang on there were internet memes 30 years ago?

OK, so I'm actually at Star Wars Celebration, where that clip premiered, right now (although I wasn't at that panel) (also STFU Whiney). That show is basically going to be Robot Chicken except with actual long form story lines and regular animation. It's Seth Green and his whole crew doing it.

Anyway, what I was going to say is I went to a panel this morning to discuss and preview season 5 of "The Clone Wars" animated series, with Dave Filoni and Joel Aron, the supervising director and VFX supervisor. After they talked for about 45 minutes and showed a bunch of clips, completely unscheduled, George Lucas showed up, and the entire room went absolutely apeshit. Fans may grumble a lot, and obviously this is a crowd more predisposed to react positively, but you'd have thought God Himself had walked onto that stage,

PS little kids fucking LOVE Star Wars, if they want to make more kiddie shows for them it's no skin off my back.

Now I'm going to go watch Dennis Muren and John Knoll talk about the 3-D conversions for the movies.

Nice one, Phil! :)

I'm trying to think of a show pitch that I could possibly have a more viscerally-negative reaction to. Maybe, like, an educational show for toddlers hosted by The Situation.
