Star Wars: The Force Awakens Parodies Are Exactly What We’d Want
The Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer was pretty awesome this week, and, of course, the Internet is full of parodies right now. Whether it’s mocking the new lightsaber, general fan art or everything else, everybody can’t stop talking about the new trailer! That’s a good thing. Fans are energized! And some fans have gone above and beyond, creating some neat parody trailers.
Like this trailer, done all in LEGO by Snooperking.
Good times. That’s a man who’s dedicating to his parodying. There are plenty of other LEGO versions on Youtube as well, if you want to check them out.
Then we have this gloriously hilarious trailer, showing us the George Lucas Special Edition version of the trailer!
Somehow, that joke never gets old. Kudos to timtimfed for getting it done!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 11/29/14
Happy Turkey Week, Comic Book fans! Did everybody have a good Thanksgiving? And for those of you who don’t celebrate, did you have a good Thursday? I had a blast. I always get together with my family, and they’re a good group of people. I made banana bread, because it’s nice to contribute something, especially if it’s my favorite dish. I’m a grown up now, I should contribute.
Speaking of contributing, how about adding some more comic book reviews to the Internet? I know I can’t get enough! We’ve got new issues of Aquaman, Arkham Manor, Superior Iron Man and more, but the real standout this week is the (regrettably) final issue of Superior Foes of Spider-Man! Why couldn’t this series have done better or lasted longer? It was so much fun!
But all good things must come to an end. Or maybe it’s that we can’t have nice things? Surely one of the two.
Comic Reviews: Aquaman #36, Arkham Manor #2, Batman Eternal #34, Scarlet Spiders #1, Superior Foes of Spider-Man #17 and Superior Iron Man #2.
The First Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trailer Has Landed!
It’s here, and it’s pretty cool! And for only about a minute-long, with just a few scattered clips of characters, droids and locales, this really does feel like a marriage of Star Wars and J.J. Abrams!
I liked the trailer, I really did! Everything has that Star Wars ‘feel’, you know what I mean? The ships, the little droid, the sounds; this trailer felt like Star Wars. And at the same time, this is clearly a J.J. Abrams movie! There’s fast-paced action and fast-moving spaceships. It kind of feels like Abrams’ Stark Trek movies. Is that weird?
I’m a little disappointed that Abrams didn’t give us a glimpse of any of the classic characters, but I still liked what I saw. Something about seeing that Stormtrooper with his helmet off is really cool to me. I’ve always been a little sympathetic to the faceless, nameless nobodies who worked for the Empire. What are their stories? Perhaps we’ll find out!
Also, lightsaber sword hilt is the new double-bladed lightsaber.
We have more than a year to wait for this movie, but here’s hoping we get even more trailers before too long!
Just Killing Time Until the Star Wars Trailer…
As you’ve all hopefully heard by now, the first teaser trailer for Star Wars: Episode VII: The Force Awakens is due to hit the Internet today. I don’t know when it will arrive or if it will be on Youtube, but I’m calmly twiddling my thumbs waiting for it to show up (do kids still twiddle their thumbs?). To kill some time, somebody on the Internet mashed up Guardians of the Galaxy and The Land Before Time. Seeing as how I love both movies, here we go…
Also, the people who did it are from the Daily ReHash. Good for them. Now bring on the Star Wars!
Also also, putting the word ‘the’ in front of Star Wars is never not funny.
My Brain Just Melted
Is anybody watching Teen Titans Go? I check it out from time to time, and I’ll definitely be checking out the new episode! Behold the preview clip that melted my brain!
Man, I love Robin as much as the next guy, so I absolutely loved that clip! Bring on Team Robin!
