"Weird Al" Yankovic's song, "The Saga Begins," summarizes the action of Star Wars Episodes I, the Phantom Menance, and II, Attack of the Clones. Illustrated with scenes from the movies.
He turned to the dark side
Weird Al and Robot Chicken are the best things that ever happened to that franchise...
Didn’t know Robot Chicken. Definitely have to watch one of them. Thanks for the suggestion. LOVE “Weird Al”! Just my level of idiocy.
Who IS that? Don’t recognize the photo.
Best dumb criminal story is a friend with a cousin who robbed a bank that was on a traffic circle at rush hour. He just sat in the car until the police came to take him out.
THAT my friend, is Jake LLloyd, AKA Young Anakin Skywalker.
He followed the footsteps of many a child actor although seemed to straighten up after a bad patch.
Wow. Can’t imagine any parent wanting their child in that environment.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jake Lloyd prequel = awesome.
Hayden C. prequels = awful.
I had a neighbor who looked just like him.Are these guys being secretly cloned somewhere?
Hayden C. prequels = awful.
I didn't like any of them after the first two. (Star Wars, and Empire Strikes back.)
"You've been flying around out there for three weeks?! You must smell like old sneakers wrapped in leathery bacon. And what the hell is an 'Aluminum Falcon'?"
bump for later
I loved this song when it came out, not long after the movie. I used to play it in the car and my grade school kids loved it, too. In fact, after a while, I explained to them that it was a parody song based on another song. I played the other song and they yelled at me to stop playing it, because they didn’t like hearing the original. To them, Weird Al’s version was the original. I always thought that was funny.
You might like some of my song parodies.

As a result I laughed all the way through the Hobbit and the Trilogy.

I LOVE your song parodies. Do you sing any of them? I didn’t find links to hearing them.
Novel writing is HARD. I can’t force myself into the style though I’ve tried several times and will probably try again someday. My preferred style is screenplay because you get to go like a bat out of hell.
You have a great joy of life, which I love.

I never even HEARD of Bored of the Rings. How wonderful. Something more to order from Amazon.
