Star Wars Kid

I don't know which one is funnier ... raw or remixed. This is why I read Waxy.org.

his fighting technique is unstoppable!

I like how he has to take a break after each movement. Did each bit require a five minute rest afterwards?

Is this done with After Effects?

How come this kid is still fat?

Now that was damn funny.

If there were more portly Jedis like that, I'd totally leave the dark side.

I dub thee Darth Haul.

THAT'S ME! Umm. Nevermind...

For those interested in making making their own lightsaber effects: http://www.theforce.net/theater/postproduction/

As a skinny kid, speaking for all anormal folk, I would like to commend this Jedi for realizing it matters not, and fighting the good fight on past cultural preconceptions.

I can't wait to remake this video. I've had fun ones in the past, but this will give a great base!

wow

I really don't know what to say...

derek, im with you on the "wow"

I think he is kinda sexy , he knows how to work that sabre allright.

They have Baskin-Robbins in the future? Yippee!

Ya know...the first one was kinda sad...but the 'remix' put it all into perspective for me...

That really is up there with the Chris Farley/Patrick Swayze Chippendale's dance. I keep watching it, and each time I laugh my ass off.

And at times he almost looks like he knows what he's doing. It's hypnotic, really. How did you find this?

Oh my God that is hilarious. I can't breathe!

wow ... that's friggin amazing. I seriously laughed so freakin loud. props m'boy. props.

The little known Jedi, Luke Piestalker.

Now I'm not sure what I've just seen but I can tell you this. I'm not the worst Star Wars geek you will find but I couldn't believe it. I never thought it was possible but this movie sucks and blows at the same time.

This is directed by by attorneys...
This movie does not suck nor does it blow.

Its like a bad train wreck...you don't want to look at it, but you just can't stop yourself.

He's so cute! The Remix is better in my opinion, just because it makes him look like he has more attitude there at the end.

Plus the really cool sound effects, of course. ;)

I really don't know what to say, he's a bad dude!

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that tubby's "light saber" is really a golf ball scoop?? FORE!!!

Someone better call George Lucas, there may be some copyright infringement or something. Anyway, when is the sequel scheduled for release?

What do you mean, you're out of Baja Womprat Gorditas? Motherfucking Tatooine Taco Bell, I'm taking your ass out!

There's only one thing that can be going through this kid's mind right now...
"NO kitty, that's MY pot pie!!!"

When I saw the first video I was like, you poor BASTARD. Laughed, and cried at the same time it was so funny and pathetic at the same time. Then I thought, oh yah that was me when I was that age. My how things have changed. However when I saw the second one, I think it really vindicated him. Regardless of how dweeby and pathetic the whole display was, set to a sound track with special effects it was far cooler than the most athletic kid on my block and his Light Saber flashlight.

I wish I could be that cool.

Absolute Comedy! He even adds his own special lightsaber noise (which sad to say causes him to get winded even more). At first, I'm thinking the guy is in a high school Flag team, but the reality is he is an Intergalactic Warrior.

Tired of the taunting from his classmates, Darth Maul takes up the Imperial Physical Fitness Challenge with new determination. Right after he contemplates implanting a crown of horns in his head and getting a full-body tattoo...

Darth Girth

:)

Sweet Baby Jesus.....that was halarious.

This is quite possible the funnist thing I've seen in a long time... a long time...

OMG>> that was fr3akin funnier than hell.. poor guy..lol.. I think.. :P

omg.. that was sooo cool.. I wish I could do something as goofy... hehe

Replica Jedi Staff $25
School Camera Rental Fee $5
Video Cassete $3

Making an ass out of yourself and having it spread across the internet...
Priceless.

This is almost as funny as the funhaus!

This made me laugh... a lot... The future of Jedi doesn't look too good.

ahhhhhhhh, bless

That looks more like a broadway musical...

I could watch this all day. LOVE the special effects!

Does that kid's mom know he has her shower curtin rod?

Gotta warn people....dont have a mouthful of coffee when watching this for the 1st time.... id did and its all over my monitor now. class.

thas the funniest thing i seen in a long time
i love this clip as much as a necrophiliac loves a dead body
thas to funny
...oh yeah, and poor kid

Don't you feel a little sorry for the Spaz? I mean even Darth MAul had to start somewhere.

ROFL!

If anyone knows how to find this kid, I have a red plastic double flashlight/saber ala Darth maul that I would LOVE to donate to his cause for more videos.

I am forever endebted to you guys for making me laugh so friggin' hard my stomach hurt. This fella may get ridiculed, but he will forever be spoken about as Jedi Knight Oboy-Eyam-Chubby. First round's on me, kid. You rock.

This reminds me of that metallica drummer video from a few years ago. People... Take the tape out of your cameras!

I love the kid! He's got it!

That is pure geniuuuus !

I have NEVER laughed that hard in my entire life. I was streaming tears down my face. That poor kid's social life is completely, totally, and absolutely screwed!

Scarab

This will be on repeat all night while me and the boys are getting drunk.
You can't buy entertainment like this.

Your father he is.......

In a distant galaxy far far away there was a mong who wanted to be darth maul......
.....................he failed miserably

is the crumpled yellow rain slicker all that's left of his previously-vanquished enemy?

i would like to see this kid show down with Andy Milonakis. (http://www.angrynakedpat.com/network/icf/...check out the Superbowl piece... the Accents piece is also entertaining)

Say,
If someone could impose say yoda, or darth maall for him to fight with, they would have a chance for at worst letterman, and at best the independant film makers guild award. Someone get on it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Signed concerned but not talented.

Utterly spectacular... i loved the remix.. bravo..

oh. my. god.

If you want to make this video infinately funnier, you need to play the theme from "Flashdance" in the background. Or "I Believe I Can Fly" by R. Kelly and put the movie in slow motion.

now play it in fast forward... a whole new level of comedy is upon us

at least give SA props. A goon redid it with the lightsaber effects.

LMAO
Was he supposed to be Darth Haul or Pies Gon In?

we need to see more of his talent

I vividly recall the embarrasment I felt when my sister walked in on me performing my own version of "Flashdance: What A Feeling!" in my room, so many years ago.

Now, if we take that shame and multiply it by five billion, we'll begin to understand what Chub-Bacca is going through right about now.

Well, that pretty much cinches it for me. I'm joining the Sith. At least they have a tiny bit of self respect!

Patience! For the Jedi it is time to eat as well. Eat, eat. Hot. Good food, hmm? Good, hmm?

Wow, this guy is like a Peach! As a matter of fact he is Peach!!!!

I thought there was no God. Now I know there is, and he comes in XL form.

Is this staged? I mean come on. I laughed so hard I think I burst my spleen.

Eatswithaforkhedoes

I really hope that the guy who is actually featured there doesn't see this, because I'd really hate to be him if he does....
I mean, this is the sorta thing that can drive some people to suicide....

But hey, PEOPLE!

I admit.... I used to do that sort of thing back at home (in Wales) out in the front yard with the spare broom-handle...
I choose to believe I do it with somewhat more flare than the broad guy, but then I'm skin & bones so there isn't so much danger of me hitting myself... though I do have a nasty habit of forgetting its a staff and using it like a rapier...

Don't you guys dare claim you have never done anything like that...

I cried with laughter, then cried some more. And once more for good measure.

Oh My God.

THAT IS MY BUDDY JOE PALANO.

SHUTUP DOUG! You said you would not tell anyone!

Oh... My... GOD. That is SERIOUSLY the funniest thing I have seen in a very very logn time. I'm here at work tryign so hard not to bust out laughing uncontrollably.

Holy shit.

Wow, Chris Farley lives.

It's so fantastic. The best part has to be in the original movie when he kind of spins out of frame in a menacing manner.

So good. I've watched it about 15 times so far. I love that freakin' kid.

At first I felt sorry for him........ then I just pissed myself!! I bet he will remeber to wipe the tape next time. ( Please note, no sexual pun was intended by that comment )

Please keep an eye out for more stuff on this!

Give the poor kid a break. Maybe he can't help his weight.......geez. Anything else ya'll have to do but to tease someone b/c he's overweight?? Pathetic

I need more !!!!!!!!! :D

do another 1

Okay, wow....I find the fourth little segment the most amusing because he reminded me of a spastic ballerina. On quaaludes. If you're gonna do the whole flail the metal pole thing, at least try not to lift your legs...it scares the children. Also, I'm surprised he didn't take out the camera at least once, considering that he had zero balance, plus the little swagger he always seems to have when walking into frame. PURE GOLD!

It's the determined look in his eyes and the occasional light sabre noises that make it a piece of comedy perfection.

peed ourselves laughing at the movie and then ..all the remarks after. did jabba the hutt have a son to avenge him? the sheer poetic grace of his gargantuan bulk as he manoevered with almost hypnotically ballet-like skills will long haunt my memories. blinding.

The Force is weak in this one.

I am utterly speechless....which very rarely happens..i think the guy forgot to take his Ritalin..really where the hell does he get the energy. I have to give the guy advice though...if your buddies find this out...RUN JEDI NIGHT RUN!!

I am never going to be able to watch Star Wars without a straight face again! Thank You I needed this after a long week of work!

I hope if this kids sees this, that realizes how much joy he is spreading around the world.

That's so damn funny... words just seem inadiquate.

But I do have an odd respect for him. Filming it.

At school.

HMMMMMMMMM strong is he with the dork side! Portly he is yeeeessss hehehehe he move like a baboon with two clubed feet! A jedi he will be but on a bantha farm!

He is the single greatest warrior the world has ever known

Judge me by my size do you???

that guy rules! I think he went to burger king on the breaks.

I've mirrored the clips on my site

http://www.slowdown.co.uk/flm/Star_Wars_Kid.wmv
http://www.slowdown.co.uk/flm/Star_Wars_Kid_Remix.wmv

what a sexy bitch

haha
the remix one is brilliant
they made him look pretty good actually

Hahahaha.....hahahahaha...hahahaha***gasp****A-HAHAHAHA

can someone please super impose some womprats or mynocks for him to fight or something... without them its just hilariously pathetic. but yet its strangly hypnotic..

OMG I am SOOO doing this now, especially after the one guy posted the make-your-own-lightsabre link. So yes, await another video, only this time with dueling Jedi, a death scene, slimmer combatants, and maybe some blasters dubbed in.

BTW major props to that kid.

Look! He's creating his own workout video! Sweatin' with the Jedi!

I laughed, I cried, and cried, and cried....Super

the funny thing is i can almost relate with that kid. who after watching yoda kick ass wouldn't want to run around beating the crap out of imaginary villians.

kinda like dancing in front of the mirror after watching sat. night fever. or showgirls.

or maybe thats just me.

That kid is over the top funny! - I too haven't laughed that hard in ages! I love, I mean I LOVE the intensity on his face in the last frame of the film. Seems to me hes used the jedi funny bone trick on me!
Kid, who ever you are - YOU ROCK!!!

Incidentally, does anyone like how he gets so focused on the whole swirling that he does a spectacular trip on the yellow thing, nearly takes out a whole wall as he hits it, AND YET MANAGES TO RECOVER WITH NO SENSE OF SHAME? It's actually quite inspiring...

I feel bad for laughing, but I am still laughing, and I'm gonna show everybody I know.

I'd like to thank everyone for participating in the Lucas Arts focus group. Judging from your comments, it would seem that the world is not yet ready for a Politically Correct re-telling of the Star Wars saga. Our market research advisor was hopeful that the casting of Jerry would resonate with generation Y, but as is clearly evident from your feedback, the world is not yet ready for a mentally and physically challenged Jedi Knight. No hard feelings -- better to learn now than at the box office! Thanks folks!

I'm still crying.... The funniest thing i've seen in ages.

Thankyou.
Such energy. I bet I'd never look that good doing my moves and he still has time for the noises, too. Yowsa. Well done that man. The padawan is strong with the force.

This movie fills me with hope. That kid is the GREATEST HERO OF ALL TIME.

Hey, this kid is great! He should try to get the most out of his fifteen minutes of fame here.

I think people laugh because everyone knows they did something equally stupid as a kid and are glad their embarrassing moments aren't on display like this... I think he's kind of a cute kid. Probably a gamer geek too - which I think is a good thing!

Use the forks

Star Wars Kid Remix

Brilliant find! :D

I can't type for laughing

Why don't you use BitTorrent to distribute the files?

http://www.bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/

Unreal. I laughed to hard I thought I was going to spit up.

ummm.....does anyone feel sorry for that kid? Yeah, we can all laugh at his expense, but he's probably seen this on the net, and been really hurt....

Sorry to spoil your fun

School camera? High school or 'special school'?

w00t r00l

faqntastic, has anyone found out if he has an agent?

this guy better be in episode 3!

wonder what they will call him after this?

*slash* That kid rules!

Råkk en råll bajsa.

Am I the only one that thinks he wasn't trying to act like a Jedi at all? I mean, he's swinging a stick around. I did that as a kid, I was never trying to be a Jedi.

what a legend!!! dont think the jedi's stand a chance anymore...looks like were in for a dark era =(

This guy is great...I bet if George Lucas sees this he will be offering him a part in Episode 3.

Very very funny! Bring on some more :)

That kid is us all.

And yet, it was better than Attack of the Clones

Well if he was to slow down just a tad maybe he wouldn't fall over every 5 seconds and need to recover.
oh and why the basketball scene at the end or did a Sith lord place him through the basket.

This is why the Internet was invented. Respect out to Mr. Kipling Jr. there though...

wow that was so funny. my sides hurt from laughing so much. i only hope that kid never finds this site though.

Hey! dont be so harsh, it takes a lot of effort to be that bad... yet so good. He's gone so far past bad that hes ace. Pure genius

Uh, that was well over a decade ago, and it was Donatello I was aping.

It makes me glad i never had a video camera

And here is the remix.

With a little more practice he may just be able to kill someone, or himself, or both.

I'm waiting for the next video, the one where he falls and gets the stick stuck up his @$$!

o_o;;; oh my sweet freakin' christ

You just know this guy got kicked out of Jedi school. I had a friend who did some really cool Jedi moves on camera, the difference being he knew what he was doing. He did "Ken Do" for like 3 years so it was pretty insane.

you know. . it's like watching a lava lamp. a really fast, epileptic lava lamp. hypnotic.

If he's the last hope, then I'm pretty sure we're all going to die.

Sweet merciful crap that was funny!

There is definately some talent in this one. (The force is strong.) His technique is awesome. Toward the end it's sorta "drunken jedi aggression". I think Lucas should definately look into giving him a role (small, or whatever) in the upcoming future production. You know ... even if it's in the background getting his ass kicked. I think it's deserving.

Well worth the wait.

Now that is what I call "pole dancing" at it's finest.
Although you can't say it wouldn't be equally as funny with a skinny kid. I don't think his weight is an issue..
I would definitely like to take my blue lightsabre flashlight and challenge him to a duel!

this is why i love the internet

Ugh... penny-arcade linkage... many users... can't download video... ugh...

It's Jabba the Jedi! Darth Hutt!

I broke into spontaneous applause.

Well done my chubby padewan friend. You have cemented yourself into the annals of Internet mediocrity for years to come.

Enjoy :)

The truly, truly sad part about this movie is that it's still more entertaining, more intellectually provocative, and has better acting than the last 2 Star Wars movies.

Blah blah blah. I'm witty. Read me. I'll make fun of the obese kid with really clever names punning on the words fat, pie, or cake and all your favorite Star Wars geek crap.

Fuckers.

Cheers to the boy with the stick. The rest of you can burn in hell.

Oh. My. Sweet. Merciful. Jesus.

I laughed till my sides hurt. Then I stopped. Then I watched the remix and laughed harder. Then I stopped. Now I just keep bursting into muffled laughter every now and then...this is going to scar me for life. But in a good way.
VIVA LA TUBBY JEDI

Lighten up on the guy, he was just having fun. Not that it wasn't funny, but those of you calling him "tubby" or "lard-ass" could easily get called "q-tip", "alibino", "never-gets-laid", or "got-beat-up-every-day-in-junior-high".

Let the Jedi practice, the Force is strong with this one.

Wow, I think I'm going to do one of two things:

1. Laugh my ass off, or...
2. Cry hysterically at the realization that nothing is sacred anymore.

Both sound pretty good right now.

halfliquid's post:

Agreed, the search could be posted on the starwars/lucasarts websites, then when he comes to claim his prize, we could all laugh at him via live internet feed.

But seriously, maybe he intentionally did all this (even submitted it to whatever site/persons that originally found it) Maybe right now he's laughing at all the notice he's received, like a modern day Lardass Hogan....

The funniest thing I've ever seen. Though it kind of worries me that myself and a whole bunch of mates were doing much the same thing right before we saw Episode 2, except with the lightsabre toys, and outside ... in public. We looked far less cool than this kid.

It looks more like he's trying to immitate Donnatello of the Turtles than Darth Maul. I knew I used to do that all the time with my compadres. Plus I think he's making swoosh sounds, not lightsaber sounds.

He looks totally badass in the remix

Someone please send that to George Lucas. PLEASE GOD!

You know, the frightening thing is, he's better at this than most of the so-called "Jedi" in that battle at the end of Ep.2. Remember them? The ones who looked like someone handed them a broomstick and told them to wave it around dramatically, oh, and try not to drop it on their foot this time? They should seriously have this kid give 'em some lessons--the spirit is willing, even if the body is not. Props to you, kid! ^_^

Jesus christ. Ban Star Wars. Ban it right fucking now.

PS:
http://www.soinsincere.com/archive/2003/05/03/star_wars_kid/

Yeah, the lifting of the leg is too much. :D

You people don't realize that we are privileged to see very rare footage of the Master of the Winded Drunken Monkey Jedi style in action.

How do I know this? Because he possesses a skill perfected only by practitioners of that discipline...that of being able to hold the light sabre, itself, without losing fingers.

I haven't seen spinning with that much enthusiasm and energy since Natalie Merchant was with the 10,000 Maniacs.

He is a sweet boy with a lot of enthusiasm. When it comes to SW he goes beyond devoted to another dimension. What a dear young man. See you on Sunday! We're having your favorite pie.

I didn't know guys this sad really exists. I thought it was so embarrasing that i couldn't even laugh. Poor guy.

(Considering Aumshinto's post) I have trained Kendo for 1,5 years .. i could probably do it better then him if i felt like going psycho (which i do sometimes in mm garden but not with dorky star wars surreal fights ... *Shivers*) but i wouldn't dream of filming myself cause i know it'd look like bollocks no amtter how good you are :)

That's the kid who runs REAL ULTIMATE POWER!!! Rob Hamburger.
He posted it on his site, here: http://www.msu.edu/~couilla3/ninja/news.htm
even claims full credit. Wow.

my dear sweet god that was bloody hilaorous, when he started to spin around flayling his legs out like a demented bally dancer, pure class.

the pillik is strong in this one.........
