Star Wars Dance Off

GiggleSugar — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 01:00:00 -0700

The entire time I was watching these folks in Star Wars costumes dancing to songs like "Thriller," "Footloose," and "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun," I kept thinking: reality television show. I would totally watch a reality show about Disney Hollywood Studios mascots on their days off. "This is the true story of seven costumed strangers, picked to live in a house, dance in Star Wars costumes together, and have their lives taped to find out what happens when the Chewbacca/Darth Vader/Princess Leia uniforms come off and the hot, sweaty people underneath start getting real. . ."

Eligible Bachelors Du Jour

GiggleSugar — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 01:00:00 -0700

High on the list of many women's "must haves" for a man include his physical fitness. So it's good that these dudes are in the gym, right? Oh, wait. They're being trained by a JediGym master, while in Star Wars costume. Nevermind.

Flashback: Star Wars Drunk Driving PSA

GiggleSugar — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 07:24:31 -0700

In a galaxy far, far away, there was a really cool dive bar with jazz-playing aliens who drank green cocktails. (And for the record, I bet that this public service announcement saved exactly zero people from driving drunk.)

Eddie Izzard Does Darth Vader at the Death Star Canteen

GiggleSugar — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 01:00:00 -0700

We all need to eat, right? Even his Lord Darth Vader. Well, comedian Eddie Izzard riffs on what it would be like for Darth to do something as mundane (and beneath his dignity) as go to a cafeteria (ewww, the wet trays!). Then someone Lego-izes it. On top of that, the Death Star Canteen is manned by someone who won't just hand him his Penne al Arrabiata and keeps calling him Jeff. Jeff Vader! This is almost as bad as the time 'ol Darth's brother, Chad Vader, worked at a supermarket. . .

The Cat of 1000 Faces, Episode III (Star Wars Special)

GiggleSugar — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 04:00:00 -0700

Our "Cat of 1000 Faces" is back and this time he's got some Star Wars in store for us. Not only does he pose as every character from the first film, he introduces them in chronological order and successfully plays out the plot (without moving a muscle) in about two minutes. Who says an attitude of utter indifference and a lethargic work ethic can't be productive?

Calling All Star Wars Fans!

GiggleSugar — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 10:00:00 -0800

Lil' Siskel here spent the last three days screening Star Wars Episode IV and has a few observations to share with us. Overall, it's an "exciting" movie, but she advises — "don't talk back to Darth Vader, he'll get ya!" I've never seen the film, but any flick that has a character "do his little light up sword to try to block the little pokey ball" sounds like something worth watching.

Flashback: Weird Star Wars Holiday Special

GiggleSugar — Mon, 24 Dec 2007 04:00:00 -0800

Lore has it that this Star Wars holiday television special was so embarrassingly weird that George Lucas had it pulled almost as soon as it aired. How weird you ask? Well, it guest stars Bea Arthur of Maude fame dancing with drunken aliens down in the coolest dive bar in the galaxy; Chewbacca's family (that's right — furry dude has a family!); and Lola Falana showing up in a halo of lavender light to wish you happy holidays. I think this thing was sponsored by LSD. Warning: You will get a contact high. (Thanks, Yum!)

Flashback: Pageant Queen Disaster

GiggleSugar — Thu, 11 Oct 2007 08:00:00 -0700

Is this prima donna really tooting her horn to the Star Wars theme song? This is the wrong place and time to let your freak flag fly, but I think our lovely contestant knows that she doesn't have a chance in hell of winning this competition. She's not only tone deaf, but girlfriend ~~dances~~ waddles like a penguin (fast forward to 1:15). Star-spangled unitard, shoulder cleavage and decorative arm streamers? Takes guts.

Flashback: Weirdest Star Wars Holiday Special Ever

GiggleSugar — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:00:00 -0700

Lore has it that this Star Wars holiday tv special was so embarrassingly weird that George Lucas had it pulled almost as soon as it aired. It's so strange, people, that I couldn't wait until the holidays or even the weekend to bring you five minutes of its oddest moments. How odd, you ask? How about Lola Falana showing up in a halo of lavender light to wish you happy holidays? How about the revelation that Chewbacca had a family? And my fave, Bea Arthur of "Maude" fame dancing with drunken aliens down in the coolest dive bar in the galaxy? I think this thing was sponsored by LSD. Warning: You will get a contact high. (Thanks, Yum!)

It's A Bouncing Baby Synthesizer Player!

GiggleSugar — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 16:00:00 -0700

Okay, so he's not a baby, but he sure is bouncing! What Star Wars has to do with this, I have no idea, but if your coffee is wearing off, and you need to feel energized, just take a cue from this guy. He's like instant energy. Shazaaaam!

Just Say No

Say that you'll be too busy washing your buns for all eternity. I'm sure he'll understand.

Harry Potter = Star Wars?

Office Space Wars

GiggleSugar — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 12:45:00 -0700

When Jedis aren't fighting in distant corners of different galaxies, they're hard at work in stuffy little cubicles, like everyone else. With Darth Vader playing the big boss, R2-D2 as the uncooperative printer, and C-3PO as the inappropriate office pervert, this is some kind of everyday sci-fi funny-- whatever that means.

Noooooooooo!

GiggleSugar — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 15:45:00 -0700

If you haven't noticed, GiggleSugar is having a fun freakfest today by featuring the overgrown toenail lady, the robotic beefcake, and the diaper boy. I thought it only appropriate, then, to conclude with this compilation of the word "Nooooooooooo!" Yes folks, the end is near.

Gang-Star Wars Rap

GiggleSugar — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 09:00:00 -0700

Star Wars characters from Yoda to Darth Vader to the loathesome Jar Jar Binks get their chance to be gangsta rappers. This is so dumb, and yet so funny.

Catching Up With The Star Wars Kid

GiggleSugar — Fri, 23 Mar 2007 09:36:23 -0700

Web Junk TV updates us on one of the most well known cewebrities-- the Star Wars kid. His spastic seriousness, coupled with his complete lack of coordination, made him an internet superstar overnight. He couldn't handle all the fame, however, and had to eventually seek counseling. I wouldn't rule out the possibility that he needed counseling looooong before his internet Jedi debut.

Luke Skywalker For School Board

GiggleSugar — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 03:00:00 -0800

Perhaps this school board wannabe considers himself perfect for the job because he's still a kid himself- prancing around with light sabers and blowing up little red school houses, while imagining himself at battle with bureaucratic "cosmic bullies." The only problem with all that is...absolutely nothing. Dude's got my vote.

The 3 Most Viral Vids Ever: A Mash-Up

GiggleSugar — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 11:09:53 -0800

What do you get when you mash-up three of the most viral videos ever? An annoying montage of messy male temper tantrums, immaturity, and delusions of grandeur. All at your fingertips, ladies! They say there's not a superior sex, but...never say never. Just watch.
