Patton Oswalt shares his (improvised!) concept for Episode VII on… Parks and Recreation? Sorry hon, you lost me at Boba Fett

Because. Just because.

…And the love between Han and Luke. Aww. (via)

Ugh, the Drew Carey version. Still, it is Star Wars, and it is pretty funny. (Thanks to Sithspit.)

Video: io9 has a fine collection of Star Wars-themed stand-up videos, some of which we’ve seen before. They also discovered Darth Vader’s Psychic Hotline.

• Help a padawan. TFN alerts us to the plight of young Maddie.
• The important questions of our time. What was the best year for movies? 1997, 1994, or 1999?
• 501st. Fanboys director Kyle Newman was inducted into the 501st Legion.
• Ode to fandom, sort of. Variety did an article about the Star Wars presence at SDCC. That’s kinda snarky for Variety…
• Blog: Distracted by Star Wars.

I thought Last Comic Standing got canceled back when the naked dude was still tooling around Survivor?

As strong as a small pony!

Popmatters asks comedian Margaret Cho the eternal question: Star Trek or Star Wars? Her answer:

Star Wars for sure. I have never seen anything Star Trek. I love sci-fi, but I’m more Star Wars-oriented. I’m totally obsessed with Chewbacca. He’s incredible.

I’m a bit of an insomniac, and so when I can’t sleep, I think about brushing Chewbacca, getting all the tangles out. I bet he is really tangled and needs some of that ‘no more tears’ spray. So I would use a wide tooth comb. I also think about braiding Chewbacca. Like two long, French braids on either side of his body. I bet he would look really good if his hair was braided.

Not for the hypersensitive prequel fans, but chances are everyone else will at least crack a smile. (Via Sci-Fi Scanner, who really makes me want to hear the rest of the routine.)

A stand-up comic at Jabba’s Palace? There’s no way that could end well. Some language. (via James)
