Stale joke

Ehh, this kind of thing is getting pretty tired. A tie fighter flies through the foreground while Gene Kelly dances? That's supposed to be a scream? Move along, folks, there's nothing to see here.

That was dumb. You guys need to hire some interns to do better digging.

"Masters?"

Doesn't that word have to mean something? Sid Caesar and Carl Reiner are "masters." The members of Monty Python are "masters." David Cross and Bob Odenkirk are "masters." These guys really don't have any sense of timing or originality. They amateurs, at best.

That was not funny

Perhaps it could have been, but it wasn't

Re: "Masters?"

You have to understand that to the clowns at Video Dog anyone with a DV camera and a copy of Adobe AferEffects is a "master."

Funny

I'm a "Star Wars" fan who absolutely loved all six "Star Wars" films, and here's what I have to say: This clip is HILARIOUS! :)

No thank you!

This video is tragically bad. I had to get through 50% of it before I got a mild chuckle. These kids lucked out once, that doesn't make them pros. They're a mildly funny college troupe at best. Don't waste your time looking for something good in the near future to come along from these guys. Their 15 mins is up, thank god!

"Singin' in the Rain" as "improved" by George Lucas

Classic!

Laughed out loud, all three times I've seen it! Now I'm going to watch the DVD of the infamous "Star Wars Christmas Special"!

Thank you Video Dog for a good holiday laugh!
