No watching now.

*Edit ok watched it.

Started out as a funny Law and Order parody with Solo on trial for shooting Greedo in cold blood. Watch the first five minutes and laugh, then groan beacuse the next fifteen are preachy anit-Lucus crap about the diffrent versions of SW's.

And I'm not just calling it crap because it's anti-lucus. It goes from funny to crap as soon as they call Lucus as a witness.

I'm not one to jump on the Lucas hate bandwagon, but I thought that it was excellent, even considering the ending part. The production values and acting were some of the part I've ever seen in a fan film, and it was genuinely funny. I may disagree with some of the views of the crew, but I can appreciate good satire when I see it.

And, of course, there was the after-credits bit. ROFL. :)

I got a few chuckles out of it in the beginning but when both the prosecution and the defense began to argue the same side, I lost interest.

That was hilarious, but why did Max keep turning into Firmus?

Who wrote this shit? The producers of "Family Guy"? 19 fucking minutes of the same damned joke over and over?

Holy God that's funny.

The trial started out funny, but they dragged it out with 10 minutes of "WAAAH I LIKE THE ORIGINALS!!!!" whining. Great premise, too bad they couldn't pull it off well.

Boooring! I lost interest and turned it off half way through. Now, Vader being a smartass? That was worth a giggle.

If the Solo guy lost weight, he'd be a dead ringer.
