This is a damn funny fan film.

I've got to say that I'm much more excited about the DVD set release of the original trilogy than I am about Episode III coming out.

(insert clever joke about Lucas not being able to write his way out of a box)

I hope this last one is good. I really do.

I'm with you on that, so long as he doesn't insert more crap into the original trilogy to make it "flow better" from his more recent disasters. I would love to see the original movies reworked so the special effects are seemless, mainly. Would be nice to have them on DVD.

Is that a fileplanet link without the usual mularkey? Most impressive.

Ah, I was wondering if someone would ever give an homage to Weird Al's Yoda song! :)

But TWO Al songs? Where do I sign to become a Jedi?

Weird Al does not sing the American Pie parody. But they're both damn funny.

Here's a shot of him from the music video:

IIRC, that music video was on of the first demos of QT4 and its streaming abilities.

So, there. :pYou are absolutely correct. I was thinking of Star Wars Cantina (http://members.aol.com/manitsas/cantina.html), which is often attributed to Weird Al but was actually written by the much lesser known Mark Jonathan Davis. My sincerest apologies. :)

From what I've heard, it's never going to happen. I'm taking what I can get from the franchise at this point. *sigh*

*sigh* I've been waiting for a complete DVD set of the original series since the Special Edition VHS tapes were released numerous years ago. Sadly this is because I watched the movies so much when I was a kid that the tapes are growing old and stretched from rewinding/forwarding/playing. I agree, an original theatre version of the films would have been a nice addition to these DVDs, and I sincerely hope that the interviews played at the beginning of the Special Editions are Bonus Material, placing them as a header into the 3 films, I feel, was a tremendous mistake. :( Ohh well, just a rant from me...

I thought I'd bump this thread again since we're gearing up for Episode III. This still has got to be one of my favorite fan films.
