Birthday Bash part 2
This is the entry you've been waiting for, I know. Star War: Backstroke of the West. All I'll say is that it's painfully funny (literally) and I will not watch this with Chad. Ever. I fear. I'd seen a lot of this as I was encoding and showing it off in clips but as a whole it's far more hilarious than I imagined. Here's a short list of common terms and then an assload of screen caps.
Sith lord - Big
Padme - The plum of
Anakin - Golden Allah/Allah Gold
Obiwan - Ratio tile/Section ratio
Jedi - hopeless situation
Jedi Council - Presbiterian church/hopeless situation parliment
Empire - west
Young Skywalker - young a line
General Greivous - space general
Darth Cader - Reaching the west of reaches/South host
And now the caps.
I've been to that galaxy. It's nice there.
C'mon guys. It's on the damn screen spelled out for you.
Already they're getting political.
That they do...
In space, everyone speaks in LOLCat.
Let's hit it!
Obiwan, always with the riddles.
That's some hot clone butt-sex.
Yes.
Ew. Wait, is that a Jabba reference?
And the student learns.
Seriously, enough with the sex jokes. This is the first of a good many uses of "fuck".
Interesting translation of "Shoot him in the middle eye". But you still get the idea.
The prequels tend to have that effect.
Cheeky Jedi.
Hot.
Apparently this is how Obiwan announces his entry into battle. He'll say it again later.
I has leveled up!
Um...
The characters were narrating?
"It's Emo-Grunge and I just happen to like it, Obiwan!"
As the film enters its Keanu/Surfer tone. Obiwan responds with...
Fer sure.
Whoa, political commentary out of nowhere!
Here's a touching little scene. Only Lucas can write dialogue like this.
Here's the strange thing. Many times Yoda actually gets translated with proper English.
Yes. The elephant. Secret head of power in the new empire.
God, I'm so stoned right now.
But, like, really know him. Like what makes him cry...
"Hold me like that time on Naboo."
Well, judging by their name I don't think they have much of a chance.
That it can.
Surely not the original dint!?
They made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
Oh, he's good. He's very good.
"Obiwan, may the force be with you."
Wish power to you too.
So please, enough with the fuck jokes.
Worst. Battle. Cry. Ever.
Uncool. I know some Presbyterians.
And that is why you are constantly stopped by security when trying to board a plane.
Can anyone top that smooth, cool POWNage?
Yeah, I thinks so.
"Limitless power!"
I don't think anyone can guarantee that.
"Darth Vader."
You're keeping the neighbors up.
of Snickers.
What does that make the Wookies?
Here comes another awesome conversation.
Still sounds better than "younglings".
Yeah... wait. Huh?
This dude has major issues.
WHAT THE FUCK?
Anakin, don't let her.
Who can, the plum of? Who among us can?
That's OK. Neither does the script in English.
This next shot has been co-opted into net culture but few people know where the phrase came from. Now you do.
That's right, Jimmy. Keep your eye on the prize.
He actually says "mind wipe" but you know what? I'm cool with the robot love.
And that concludes my presentation of Backstroke. It's so much funnier when played out in the movie. If anyone wants to come over and watch it again I would be happy to. Just let me recover from the first time.
