^I'm guessing that had to have been made prior to 1999. I can't see anyone in their right mind putting him on a list of best directors otherwise.

 That's a very recent photo of him. I think it was made in the past couple of years.

First DVD showcased is Star Wars Episope II.

Yes, Episope.

 Even better... "Episo pe"!

Stuart Ashen is great. And that synopsis is incredible... I've seen a whole lot of Engrish in my time, but I've never seen it in such pure, highly concentrated, unadulterated form...

"anner the gold grow upped, and become a hero juedy warrior, but should be student of ao ratio king-kano the ratio have already promoted to be the teacher."

There aren't enough "sics" in the world to cover that...

^I honestly don't know what the hell it is I just watched. A kid receiving gifts and anti-Sith propaganda from Lucasfilm?

That's about it. From the description:

"My son wrote to LucasFilm about how he wanted to get married but still retain his Jedi status without becoming a Sith. He got a big surprise back and finally stopped talking about Jedi Marriage Equality.... for now."

You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

I don't know whether to be amused by the kid's naivete or distressed at how the PT's warped his outlook on the Jedi.

Oh, well, if this teaches more parents to keep their children from watching the prequels until they're much older, then I'm thankful.

Warning NSFW language but... I nearly needed medical attention from laughing so hard at this mashup...

Withnail & I vs Star Wars

That voice is somehow so perfect for Threepio.

In this other mashup, Uncle Monty is a perfect fit for Yoda...

VIZ TOP TIPS! - PARENTS. Impress your children by showing them a floppy disk and telling them it’s a 3D model of a save icon.

"Renzi Ballespaziali Show" (Renzi Spaceballs Show): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdzEgevM6iM

Maurizio Crozza (Italian comedian) makes a Renzi (Italian prime minister) impression with a Renzi-Palpatine crossover, shouting "Potere!" (Power!) and using the Force to scare his Italian opposition (did I mention it's in Italian?). In the end, he gets beaten by his mother for his political decisions, like that boy during the Baltimore's riots :D

Well, I don't want to go off topic, but let me give you my opinion on him.

http://autori.fanpage.it/crozza-se-questa-e-satira/ said:

La satira invece è decisamente altro: è una critica verso aspetti o personaggi tipici della vita contemporanea (Devoto G., Oli G., 2003). Politica, religione, sesso e morte i temi prediletti. Personaggi pubblici che occupano posizioni di potere, gli oggetti privilegiati. Attaccare le convenzioni, smascherare le ipocrisie, seminare dubbi, proporre un punto di vista oscillando tra sacro e profano, sono i suoi compiti. La risata non è lo scopo ultimo, ma il mezzo attraverso cui veicolare un contenuto.

Si tratta di un punto di vista strettamente personale, perciò necessariamente faziosa: un giudizio sui fatti che accadono. Nasce dalla rabbia, per cui non è affatto consolatoria, ma scandalosa nella sua libertà d'espressione.

About Crozza (I'm using the video I posted as reference):

-he does criticize the society and its figures (Renzi);

-he does propose his opinion to the audiance (he's become as powerful as the Emperor);

-to him, laugh is a mean to show his point (through the Force, he can control the Parliament, censor the media);

-his gags often happen to be shocking in its  expression (and in fact he gets a complaint amost every week; should I mention he made Renzi sleep in the White House with Michelle Obama?)

So yeah, I think he does make satire.

Stop linking and quoting Italian stuff! It runs counter to my ethnocentric biases!
