I’ve always felt for Porkins. If you can’t recall him immediately, he’s the fat bastard getting thrown all around his X-Wing in A New Hope. I’ve always speculated his ass was too heavy, and they hadn’t calibrated the shocks to meet his beluga-size donkey trunk. He died a forgotten man while that whiny puke Aryan posterchild Skywalker took all the acclaim.

Well fuck that noise! Now it appears some people are giving him the pop he deserves.

Long like Jek.

No less than three-thousand people have pointed this out to me, and that can only mean one thing: in internet years, it’s a million-billion years old. Whatever, it’s still amazing.

This footage is from a bank in Long Island, and if I was getting robbed there, I hope I would have the respect to clap, if not at the least stand at attention and await my Force choking.

I have to admit that he didn’t use a more elegant weapon, for a more civilized age. Lord Vader, if you get caught, it’s on yourself for using such a clumsy and random weapon. You douche.

Holy crap, this shit is dope as fuck. Lucky nerds are going to get these Star Wars cereal boxes at the upcoming Star Wars Orgy of Nerdiness, Celebration V:

via comics alliance:

Sixteen mini-boxes will be given away at Collectors Panels during Celebration V in Orlando from August 12-14, according to StarWars.com. The parodies of classic grocery store varieties include Hothsted Flakes, Raisin Han, Troop Loops and Vlix, which only the most hardcore of Star Wars fans and “Droids” cartoon series followers will likely understand.

Artists Jeff Correll, Mattias Rendahl, Grant Gould, Bill Cable, Chris Reiff, Jeff Carlisle, Scott D.M. Simmons, and Chris Trevas contributed imagery to these freebees, whose production runs will be capped at 400 boxes each. Count Dookula actually looks mighty tasty. If there’s a cereal manufacturer taking notes out there, there are plenty of lightsaber spoons out there ready to dig into this deliciousness if given the chance.

This is ridiculously win. Hit the jump to check out all the other boxes that belong to this line.

I came across this video today over at Slashfilm, and it’s pretty tremendous. Why can’t this shit ever happen to me on the subway?

via slashfilm:

Improv Everywhere   is a group of New Yorkers who love to “cause scenes of chaos and joy in public places.” You’ve surely seen many videos of their previous stunts, as many of them have gone viral around the interwebs. Their latest mission was to reenact he first Princess Leia / Darth Vader scene from Star Wars on a New York City subway car.

Seriously, what the fuck. Whenever I’m on a subway the most exciting thing that happens to me is that guy who is leaning against the last seat on the train, smelling of piss and reminding me of my future.

Hit the jump and check out subway action not involving homelessness or urine.
