"Kidnapped", eh? Nice cover story. I like it. And they are calling Grievous a droid? Interesting.

"War!"

Oh God...

“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

Yeah, pretty cool. It has that 50s B-Movie vibe.

Please don't give Georgie any ideas, okay?

Nah, just that he leads the droid army. He only part droid, no?

I'm pretty sure when the refer to Grievous as the Fiendish droid leader, they mean that he is leader of the droid armies, and not the fact he's completely a droid himself.

although ?I wonder what they mean by saying there are heroes on both sides?

I can already imagine MagnoliaFan 'sweeping in' to save this.

I never had the nerve to make the final cut.

Niiice. I thought of doing that, but I just didn't want to... I was expecting for someone else to do it.

WAR!

I cannot believe what I just read!

"WAR!"

What the Kessel is with that?!?!?!?!!?!?! The rest of it is pretty good though. Well, actually, the entire first paragraph really sucks. It sounds like a young child wrote it in simple senetneces. War. Evil is everywhere.

Episode III
Revenge of the Shit

WAR! Lucasfilm is crumbling
under attacks from disgrungled
fan boys discontented with the
direction the franchise has taken.
There are heroes one one side.
It ain't Lucasfilm.

In a stunning move, the feindish
fan boy leader MagnoliaFan, has
re-edited both Episode I and II
making them much better films than
what was officially released.

As fanboys flee with their bootlegged
copies of these brilliant re-edits,
The Dark Lord Darth Lucas
has waged an all-out assault by
releasing the ORIGINAL TRILOGY full
of technical glitches and pointless
changes in a last ditch effort to get
our cash ....

The inside of the Star Wars title obscures the starfeild behind it.

Ballance of the Force was hardly better than TMP. It turned JarJar from an idiot to a prick, made the Nemoidians seem the bad guys rather than Sidious, (And made them sound absolutely terrible) and made the Gungans seem like barbarians. It just didn't work very well.

Opinion taken.

Some like it, some don't. After all, it is merely his own "point of view" on the film.

And in my opinion, a nice view to have.

I never had the nerve to make the final cut.

At least your subtitles were better, DigitalMan.

Kaiburr is definitly a better spelling than Kyber.

That was great zion, the only thing you'd need to do to make it perfect is to get the right font.

I dont know if you could use this:

ADM, that was a great crawl. And the reason you haven't been hired as a writer by LFL is what?

Oh wait...

And yes, the snowtroopers are a humorless lot, aren't they?
