OK... this has probably been posted, like, a year ago, but for those who haven't seen it yet... Troops.mov (27mb - glad you got broadband put in, eh?)

Apologies if this is old hat... in any case, it's funny :D

Quite old hat, but yes, it's still good.

troops is one of those classics.

Could someone tell me what it is? I'm sitting here behind a 56k dialup, and am too much of a pauper to be able to afford broad band.

Imagine 'Cops' with Stormtroopers.

You. Must. See. It.

Don't bother with Trooper Clerks. Wasted concept.

Now, TIE-TANIC is a must-see for anyone who got sick to death of all the "Titanic" film hype.

I think both are funny but I`d give TIE-Tanic the edge cause Troops gives us false hope by having Boba Fett in the titles but not in the actual episode.

Then you're dead inside.

Although Troops *is* better. Tie-Tanic just pieces together existing footage. Troops is all-new stuff with fanmade costumes, and actually meshes directly into A New Hope continuity. Impressive stuff.

Not stupid, just lacking that essential spark of human spirit.

'Tis the only explanation I can think of for someone not being amused by the Titanic getting blown in half by the Death Star. Or flaming Ewoks running around the decks. Or Darth Vader waxing lyrical about demographics and special limited boxed sets. Et al.
