 Thanks for the support. We will continue to post unrelated content hoping you will catch on.

Anyway, it seems they're making new OT's adaptations: http://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-adaptation-covers-revealed-presenting-the-new-original-trilogy

In  the  time  of  the  Old  Republic,  hundreds  of  star  systems  lived  together  in  peace  and prosperity,  protected  by  an  ancient  order  of  warriors, the Jedi. But a tide of darkness swept through the galaxy, as unstoppable as it was terrifying, wiping  out  even  the  most  powerful  fighters.

So now the Jedi are warriors, not guardians of peace? I always liked the idea of the Jedi as samurai, but even they were not exclusively warriors.

John Doom, I have to ask... You say you're on no team, but is anyone on your team?

“That Darth Vader, man. Sure does love eating Jedi.”

If that bothers you, don't even think of watching this

Good grief. That horrifying video..........barely follows the original story as stated in the creepypasta. It may be creepier in some ways, but if you want something more faithful, try this. If you want to see the first half of the "real" short, go here.

I hope this is canon:

 Well, I guess I have the answer to the question I asked in the Off Topic Random Thoughts Thread.

What I want as official canon -- which is a joke, anyway -- isn't necessarily what I want as part of my personal canon. =P

At least that paper has more to do with Star Wars than Suicide Mouse does :P

As TV Tropes would say, that image Crosses The Line Twice! It's disturbing, but funny at the same time.....

.....that image is Suicide Mouse In Name Only though, having as much to do with the creepypasta as this. In the pasta itself and in most recreations, Mickey doesn't even kill himself, the title coming from what the psychological effect of the video in the story does to people. The exception is the video you linked, and even then it is debatable whether Mickey killed himself or he collapsed and died due to the demonic figure in the end.

.....it's 2:45 AM. Why am I still awake?

There's something I've been wondering about and been meaning to ask for some time now: Does the term "Jedi Order" show up in the OT?

 Nope.

And in the time of greatest despair, there shall come a savior, and he shall be known as the Son of the Suns.

Not the first time somebody has thought of that mash up.

Not the first time you've reminded someone that.

Oddly mixed message with a Special Edition screencap...

I couldn't find an OOT screencap of that shot. And I knew someone was going to harp on that. ;)

Not trying to go for a cheap shot, just saying all nations have a way to go in terms of preserving their history for future generations.  The US may save their space history, but they allow their film history to be burned.
