Fink, you've finally found a creative outlet for your humourous urges! :D

Seriously, though this is fantastic. Love the clips.

Also, with regards to Obi Wan falling, don't change it. There is a sort of philosophy that early Simpsons writers went by, that Family Guy later copied first--if something is funny, repeat it until it's no longer funny, and then keep repeating it and it becomes funny again, only moreso. An example is Sideshow Bob stepping on the rakes and grumbling. Funny the first two or three times, then after the fourth it becomes played and you want it to stop, but then after the seventh it becomes so ridiculous that it's funnier than ever, and by the ninth time in a row it happens it's utterly genious. Family Guy did this less successfully (like when Peter stubs his shin and goes "sshhh...ahhhh!!" a million times), but I thought the Obi Wan clip was good and also parodies how ridiculous it is that in the actual film he really does fall an unrealistic amount of height. I thought maybe you would have one of him jumping up and up and up to get back to Maul! :p

Anyway, good stuff!
