Jun 23 2008Way To Desecrate My Favorite Characters: Star Wars Dance Competition At Disney

So apparently Disney has now started having "Star Wars Weekends" at Walt Disney World. What does this mean? Among other things, a Star Wars Character Dance Competition that made my blood boil. The video is over 5 minutes long, so what you want to do is let it load, and then watch a random ten seconds of the first 3 minutes, and then actually let it play at 3:11. This video has singlehandedly desecrated the memory of my favorite childhood characters. Kind of like that time at my Halloween party when I walked in on my girlfriend humping Optimus Prime. Suffice it to say I trashed all my Transformers and Uncle Jake isn't my favorite uncle anymore.

So... freaking... stupid...

I didn't even need the music to know that Darth Vader is dancing to Michael Jackson.

Hah! Ruined somebody's first.

I want to punch everyone in the audience for cheering and encouraging those loser "actors/dancers/crack-addicts". There just up there for the money, but the people watching... you don't applaud a car accident... do you.

Wow, I can't believe how angry I am right now.

Wow, what next? Footage of Jar Jar Binks shitting in Han's mouth?

It's as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and weren't silenced until this crappy dance was finally over.

It's peanut butter jelly time!

Peanut butter jelly, peanut butter jelly, peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat.

In all fairness, George Lucas has been destroying your childhood memories since the 70's with that Christmas Special. Have you thought about getting a new childhood hero? Like Zuul? Or Smurfette?

What. The. F***.

that was awesomely bad. relax. enjoy.

That was actually funny, you other up tight nemrods need to loosen up your stools samples. Stop making shit so complicated.....

Come come! Star Wars Weekends are AWESOME!!! The 501st Legion gets to dress up and march sweating balls in 95 degree weather!

Darth Vader "performnig" Thriller. Not sure if I should laugh or cry... maybe a little of both.

Agree with #10. lighten up and laugh a little.

I can't believe my eyes. I had to turn the sound off, it was so bad. This is stupid. Whoever at Walt Disney World came up with this idea needs to get shot in the face

who didn't see vader winning that one. I mean who's gonna vote against him. It was all pretty sad though.

Don't rip on the actors. They work for Disney, they get a paycheck, they have nothing to do with the actual show. It's the organizers that should be smacked.

only Vader is worth seeing.

and the clip is truly old ;)

I think couple #1 deserved the prize. Darth vader & Friends didn't do that great a job.

It's...hell I don't know...I was bored at the moment and found it amusing. Whatever.

That's bad...

as bad as the Christmas Special #7 talked about (a must-see if you want to traumatize yourself further).

...but maybe not as traumatic than seeing this footage about Carrie Fisher/lookalike, naked, puffing cigarettes and doing farts with her cunt right in front of the camera.
That's a deathblow. Quite perturbating. Took a week to recover.
...and it will never be a 100% recovery...

Great.

I've been toying with the idea for sometime of having a wake for Star Wars. I'd invite my friends and we'd all get wasted and burn whats left of our Star Wars collectibles.

I think this is the video that finally gonna make it happen.

The thing that gets me is the further cute-ification of Darth Vader. How is it that he's gone from a mass murderer who Force-chokes the bejesus out of everyone who looks at him cross-eyed to adorable plush toy?

It would be like having Jason Voorhees breakdancing contests at Six Flags or something. I mean, having Jason dance to "Thriller" would make slightly more sense than Vader, being that he's undead and a product of the 80s, but still...

this is great

considering the acting talent in the original and the new movies, this makes the thought of star wars at least a bit joyful.

That was stupid but I enjoyed it more than Phantom Menace.

you guys need to lighten up. i love star wars too, but that was hilarious.

Wow, you guys really need to remove the lightsabers from your assholes. I'm a huge Star Wars fan and I thought that was fun and hilarious. I would've loved that when I was a kid. And, surprise! That show's for kids. It's harmless fun.

They should've had Hitler face off against Darth Vader. Now THAT's a dance contest I would watch! :)

Whoa...! I think my inner child just died...

It's killing me... Next thing Disney will ask Britney to play young Lea on their brand new musical: Star Wars episode 3 1/2 the return of the mighty floppy disk.

thats just wrong :S

Apperently the Michael Jacksons Thriller Crotch Grapping move wasn't deemed apropriate for Dsiney World. Not even as a move for the dark side.

FYI

George Lucas approves EVERYTHING about Star Wars Weekends before they are allowed to produce it, including this.

Im so offended... i'm sure all of you have communicated my dislike... It's time to release the swimming robotic snake on Disney!!!

that was funny...

yeah i hear all you starwars die hards...but in all honesty...it was satirical.

besides..its not like anything we watch for the most part is original anymore..we are living in this constant simulation of past remixed into our present..disney does a good job of that anyways..

oh wow.......this is a disgrace to star wars and makes me want to kill some choreographers.

Bring me Solo and the Wookiee. They will all suffer for this outrage.

(i will eat them)

I think watching that just now made me gay......dam you superfical !

Lucasfilms allows this? sad....

I mean, crying in my microbrew sad....

REALLY sad....

It hurts, but it's still funny

next saturday: star wars in da hood: rap competition!

i love star wars, and although the hosts were annoying, i thought the dancing was cute and funny.

alright darth vader was the only good one it was pretty funny too

ZOMG! That guy hosting the show is f@#kin Nelix from Star Trek!

While I understand your feelings, I honestly think the real problem is that you're taking star wars altogether too seriously.

Real world folks, it's not just for the beautiful people.

Freaking awesome! I've never seen bad ass dancers like these. I suggest a battle; Han and Luke vs. Apollo and Starbuck. After that we need obi-wan kenobi vs. adama and after that darth vader vs. baltar. Well you catch my drift ...............LET's GET READY TO RrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrUMBLE

(on the other hand once again those south park guys were right with their episode about Lucas, HE has all those dancers say: squell like a pig)

Forget you guys that was hilarious xD

you cant sing foot lose because goerge michaels gay

Is that.... is that Palpatine in the back there??
