I actually thought the reason Dag (or what ever the fuck his name is) took the robot chick was because it was deflecting the lasers.....or something, I dunno
I would've found it reasonable to grab her if he had done it in the sort of hostage situation stereotypical hold, arm around the neck and such. The way he picked her up wasn't the most useful.
I read somewhere that there really IS a remake of this film already in production. If the director is able to fix the problems this movie has and make it less of a Star Wars knock-off, than I can see it as an enjoyable sci-fi movie. But only time will tell.
1aundulxaldin Yeah, I read it in an article. But that article is from 2012. No news has appeared for that remake since, so I'm guessing it's either in production hell or it got scrapped all together.
DarthRushy Last time you killed Docta, this time i will take revenge! *Takes out TWO Sonic Blasters* Geronimo! *Shoots under the Master AND behind him*
No, it's not just you. People were a bit less sensitive once upon a time, and sometimes, you really could get away with shit like blood or robot ass in a PG movie. I'm pretty sure now adays, one could NEVER get away with anything like this, or such children's nightmare fuel as Watership Down (Just look it up, I'm sure you'll turn up something that'll haunt your nightmares :/)
This has to be my favorite NC review of all time. Sage and Doug just play off each other so well, and I really miss the whole "Sage is creepy" gag from the older episodes (you know, before the runtime of each review was loaded with skits).
Another interesting thing about this movie is the voice of Zygon is Anthony De Longis, known as Blade from Masters of the Universe, and also one of the henchmen from Roadhouse, Gary (drove the monster truck). But he's actually more well known for being a proficient swordsman and taught Harrison Ford how to use the bullwhip for Indiana Jones. He's one of those guys important to movies that doesn't get enough credit.
15:38 NC could have pointed that: why in tarnation robots ALWAYS have a fucking SPRING in their necks when they are decapitated? Whats the point of a spring for a neck, anyway? does the robot work part-time as jack-in-the-box?
11:49 That wasn't pointless. If you looked closely, you could see they used the female robot as a literal shield for blaster shots. Yeah, they do that to female robots now XD
And another thing (this one likely not coincidental), Zygon strangling Elan to death = Darth Vader strangling the Rebel soldier from Princess Leia's ship in A New Hope.
***** Hero to Zero wasn't my favourite song, but I did enjoy it to a degree. For me, my favourites were and will continue to be The Gospel Truth and Won't say (I'm in love)
I think the reason they hate Hercules is because the story they trying to give you does not really match the tone of the movie o.o...I mean its a fun little trip and all and actually pretty fun in the music parts...but...for an hercules movie o_o...I guess people just dont believe its the best or good enough
I think the Critic missed the fact that when they randomly grabbed the heavy robot and carried her to the ship during that laser battle, the lasers were deflecting off the robotic body.
***** *facepalm* Comparison has nothing to do with which one came first. Nostalgia critic doesn't compare it for the fact that it came first because he's stating Starchaser is copying other movies that came out before it. I'm comparing it irrelevant to the idea that it couldn't have ripped off Hercules.
Joke about it all you want, but this is the first ever gritty animation that most in my generation ever seen. It's my brothers and I favorite animation.
My Profile Picture is by Hatomame, will all you perverts stop asking or the links awakening rip off at 16:30 (hopefully if anyone has played/seen the opening I don't have to explain how its a rip off)
What do you mean? This movie came out in 1985, while the return of the jedi was released in 1983. Everything this movie rips off existed for at least 2 years! Yeah you CAN argument, that the movie was made during the release of Star Wars, BUT that is invalid because the movie had a suprisingly shot production time of only one year (1984)! Return of the Jedi could've been released during the pre-production, but at least the first 2 Star Wars movies were allready out and well known. So yeah...this is a rip off!
IncapableLP Nah I'm talking about stuff like how in the movie he's cutting open a door with his magical sword so the critic cuts to a scene from Episode 1 lol. There were others like that but I'm too lazy to go over the episode again :P
Honestly, I would love to see a sequel to this movie. I want to see what someone would do with this sci-fi universe, similar to the Star Wars Expanded Universe.
2:46 Wouldn't whipping your slave with a fucking laser whip splice her in half?!? As it would this laser drill 5:23. And he 3:24 should be decapitated. Also: 4:28 This sword had a physical blade 2 seconds ago. Where did it go?!? 5:46 what do his horns phase through? 12:04 There are 14+ bad guys on the ground... do they wait for their turn to fire their guns or what?! With 14+ guys blasting away there should be a whole lot more laser beams soaring against the ship... 21:32 Looks like the GM granted him a free level of soulknife for the climax... that's power gaming... And I think I can help out with these: 12:15 "Kacka" or also "Kaka" is a German word. Little kids use it as an euphemism for shit, poop, turd, feces, stool, excrement, or crap. I get the feeling that this movie isn't iconic, but ironic. 15:24 For a split second Dagg's leg was lifted, so I assume he kicked the other guy in the balls. Like a real rogue. Not cool bro.
VisualGourmet 1 I think it's electric whip? 2 Yeahhhh... that sword thing... it just show how the story is badlly writen... 3 Yeahhhh... that horns thing... it just show how the movie is badlly drawn... 4 Errr... that's really it's own problem, many other movie henchman act like this too... also that kick... I think they just missed few frames of animation...
Han Liu The electrical whip theory is intriguing... let's think, discuss and theorize: Would it be possible for the whip to glow red when being live? Usually if there's any strong discharge, it appears blueish or rather white. Wouldn't a red glow mean that the (obviously) metallic whip holds that much electricity that it's overheating? And judging by the whip "chord's" diameter it needs a lot of electricity to do so. Beating a slave with such an overcharged whip would outright kill him by stopping his heart. Therefore I think the proper answer should be: _"Yeahhhh... that whip thing... it just show how the story is badlly writen..."_ And I'd criticize the idle henchmen in every movie :-) It's dumb and lazy screenwriting.
Han Liu You mean the one Skeletor's henchman whipped He-Man's ass with? You're right, there seems to be a manufacturer who sells "Laser Torture Instruments for the Villain-About-Town [trade mark]"
*You wouldn’t dare....* He’s not *seriously* going to- Oh he’s going there. See that look on his face? *That’s* the look of a man who’s about to plunder himself some *ass.*
With all the Star Wars references you made in this video, I'm surprised you didn't cut to a clip of when Darth Maul was cleaved in two by Obi-Wan during Zaigon's death...
See that's actually funny, just like the reference to Qui-gon melting the metal door. Since this movie was released in 1985, and the Phantom Menace was released in 1999, it seams in the end the ripping off went both ways.
actually first zelda game come out in japan February 21, 1986, while this movie come out 1985. so this isn't based to zelda any kind of way because zelda didn't exist yet.
From a writer's standpoint, the bladeless hilt "energy sword" is an interesting idea, unfortunately, with the lack of characterization and well-thought out plot points or plot in general, that's all it really is: an idea. If this move actually had a clear mythology and well... a reason why the sword did that, it'd be pretty cool. That being said: that sword's design and "way it works" minus the whole invisible part, is also ripping off "The black Caldron.
Actually it's mentioned near the end of the movie that the sword's blade is created by Orin's own "Force". Just one more Star Wars reference right there.
b sher i personally hate it. I hate this kind of art style and will never like it because of good old Cartoon network cartoons that were amazing with detail yet simple but clear art style. Simply but clear, that's my favorite that this is waaay to much like clay models draw on paper with human details
magnusm4 i dunno, i like the older cartoon style. i watch anime these days, and i prefer shit like akira, vampire hunter d, ninja scroll. i guess i'm just nostalgic for the older animation styles, and i think the art in this is pretty solid, i doesn't look cheap at all.
+Jonathan Curtis Yeah, I really liked the nod to the Zygon creature, quite an obscure Doctor Who reference especially since this review was made before the Zygons made their long-awaited returned in the 50th anniversary special.
Having seen the movie recently, I have to say it's not AS bad as Doug plays it out to be, but it's still not great. If you ask me, it uses lifted shots from Star Wars similar to how Turkish Star Wars does while MOSTLY doing it's own thing, unlike Brazilian Star Wars (Doesn't really count on the ground that it's a parody). I think one of the nails in the coffin for the movie was that it was marketed towards kids or families, the burn may have been less if it were probably PG-13. In addition to some long, drawn out panning shots of the ship flying by all these empty scenes for almost ten seconds. I still liked it either way, 6.5 out of 10. Not bad, but nothing really special either.
Am I the only one who's reminded of Hercules as the movie nears the end?! Like the fact that he denies the choice to be all god-like?! I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE!
"Guard! I have something for you!" "Oh boy, oh boy! I hope it is candy!" *gets stabbed* "That is not candy" XD
19:22 YES!
Best line! 😂
"oh boy oh boy I hope it is candy, That is not candy!"
this is low-key comedy gold.
Funny how Sage's hat looks like a ceremonial headdress of some kind under that hood. He looks like he could be from an Indiana Jones movie. lol
I actually thought the reason Dag (or what ever the fuck his name is) took the robot chick was because it was deflecting the lasers.....or something, I dunno
I would've found it reasonable to grab her if he had done it in the sort of hostage situation stereotypical hold, arm around the neck and such. The way he picked her up wasn't the most useful.
Maybe he just wanted to know how it was to do with a robot and well...she was a robot so...
NekoSoren I'd still do her. :)
NekoSoren probably not though this was before everything had dome kind of porno spinoff
***** That's what I thought when I first saw it. Makes sense, really.
11:12 Ahem. That's an _AT-ST_, thank you very much.
😂😂😂....i actually knew the difference
+troodon9999 i care
+When She Shows You Her Moves Me to.

I read somewhere that there really IS a remake of this film already in production. If the director is able to fix the problems this movie has and make it less of a Star Wars knock-off, than I can see it as an enjoyable sci-fi movie. But only time will tell.
Dark Jedi Yeah, there were talks to making a remake, but so far nothing has happened.
Dark Jedi A REMAKE!?
1aundulxaldin Yeah, I read it in an article. But that article is from 2012. No news has appeared for that remake since, so I'm guessing it's either in production hell or it got scrapped all together.
Dark Jedi So maybe Gurren Lagann ripoff?
Dark Jedi So basically you're saying if the director makes an entirely new movie it could be pretty good.
You know Sage;s whole terrifying persona is kinda undermined by the flat cap.
I love the reaction of the Nostalgia Critic and Sage's calm reaction to them. They made me laugh so hard!
Anyone else think the villain looks like a combination of sauron and evil emporer zurg from toy story?
Autobot Productions his face looks like that guy from guardians of the galaxy
Frednino 71 Ronan yeah.but at least with the helmet on he looked like zurg meets sauron
Truly
Autobot Productions Maybe looks like prince xizor from star wars?
***** i have no idea who that is
It's the eyes, isn't it-
THE EYES, WHAT'S UP WITH THE EYES?!?

At least the pink fairy thing did not say "Hey Listen" everytime!
Is it just me, or did some cartoon movies from the '80's have more racier and mature themes than cartoon movies of today?
No, it's not just you. People were a bit less sensitive once upon a time, and sometimes, you really could get away with shit like blood or robot ass in a PG movie. I'm pretty sure now adays, one could NEVER get away with anything like this, or such children's nightmare fuel as Watership Down (Just look it up, I'm sure you'll turn up something that'll haunt your nightmares :/)
Look at gravity falls "northwest mansion mystery"
This has to be my favorite NC review of all time. Sage and Doug just play off each other so well, and I really miss the whole "Sage is creepy" gag from the older episodes (you know, before the runtime of each review was loaded with skits).
hmm
Another interesting thing about this movie is the voice of Zygon is Anthony De Longis, known as Blade from Masters of the Universe, and also one of the henchmen from Roadhouse, Gary (drove the monster truck). But he's actually more well known for being a proficient swordsman and taught Harrison Ford how to use the bullwhip for Indiana Jones. He's one of those guys important to movies that doesn't get enough credit.
He also later taught Michelle Pfeiffer how to use a whip for her role as Catwoman in Batman Returns.
"Sage...? What's dat?"
god i love how he asks that. xD
15:38
NC could have pointed that:
why in tarnation robots ALWAYS have a fucking SPRING in their necks when they are decapitated? Whats the point of a spring for a neck, anyway? does the robot work part-time as jack-in-the-box?
its Diet Star Wars
You mean Star Wars right now?
Yeah that's really accurate
0:24 NS: "You look good. Have you been working out or something?"
And Sage is looking at him like "You know fucking well I haven't been working out."
My favourite joke was the torture scene because I was able to predict Han Solo screaming cutaway. It was perfectly cut too is what made it hilarious.
11:49 That wasn't pointless. If you looked closely, you could see they used the female robot as a literal shield for blaster shots. Yeah, they do that to female robots now XD
Wait, he slices the villain in half and throws him down a shaft?
Is it just me or did the film that ripped off Star Wars get ripped off by Star Wars?
More like this movie rapped Star Wars. XD
S-Starception?
maybe this is Lucius saying "if you can rip off scenes from my movie i can do it to yours."
Another coincidental similarity to Star Wars is Zygon's death. He gets cut in half and falls just like Darth Maul did.
And another thing (this one likely not coincidental), Zygon strangling Elan to death = Darth Vader strangling the Rebel soldier from Princess Leia's ship in A New Hope.
It's funny because Starchaser came out years before The Phantom Menace.
Spar10Leonidas in MY opionion the prquels dont count as star wars movies
*****
Zygon gets the same treatment as Darth Maul.
The star wars sequels didn't exist yet.
20:00-20:10 "WHAT DO YOU MEEEEAN YOU DON'T AGREE WITH ME?! DON'T YOU KNOW WHO YOU'RE DEALING WITH?!" *pushes button and laughs maniacally*
11:48 pointless? he's using her as a shield!!
Yeah seriously, did he temporarily lose vision while he edited that scene into his own video? And again, why did Sage not say a single thing?
PSH WHY ARE THEY IN SPACE SHIPS WHY DON'T THEY JUST WALK EVERYWHERE
I'm guessing that wasn't his original idea, though.
17:19 "... and what does he do?"
If you're wondering, that was a Kindergarten Cop reference.
That ending was so disney's Hercules..
I'm surprised how many people hate that film. It's one of my favourite Disney musicals.
***** Hero to Zero wasn't my favourite song, but I did enjoy it to a degree. For me, my favourites were and will continue to be The Gospel Truth and Won't say (I'm in love)
***** I used to sing it all the time before my Ex dumped me.
But this came before disney's Hercules
I think the reason they hate Hercules is because the story they trying to give you does not really match the tone of the movie o.o...I mean its a fun little trip and all and actually pretty fun in the music parts...but...for an hercules movie o_o...I guess people just dont believe its the best or good enough
I think the Critic missed the fact that when they randomly grabbed the heavy robot and carried her to the ship during that laser battle, the lasers were deflecting off the robotic body.
I loved the look on the Nostalgic Critic's face when he saw that creepy cyborg. Priceless!
That ending... isn't that Disney's Hercules?
Top notch quality. Thank you so much for this upload! :)
I can't believe he didn't note the "Disn'ey's Hercules" Ending.
TheDimLamp This was before Hercules.
But the similarity is still there.
TheDimLamp
But you can't make the comparison when Starchaser came first.
***** *facepalm* Comparison has nothing to do with which one came first. Nostalgia critic doesn't compare it for the fact that it came first because he's stating Starchaser is copying other movies that came out before it. I'm comparing it irrelevant to the idea that it couldn't have ripped off Hercules.
TheDimLamp and at 16:30, that's links awakening. They ripped off links awakening
Joke about it all you want, but this is the first ever gritty animation that most in my generation ever seen. It's my brothers and I favorite animation.
I'm surprised he didn't mention how Dag is literally just Space Humphrey Bogart.
Han Solo was inspired by Bogey
My Profile Picture is by Hatomame, will all you perverts stop asking or the links awakening rip off at 16:30 (hopefully if anyone has played/seen the opening I don't have to explain how its a rip off)
21:31 Darth Maul?
So I couldn't help but notice how many "rip offs" he pointed out in this movie are from stuff that didn't exist when it was made.
What do you mean? This movie came out in 1985, while the return of the jedi was released in 1983. Everything this movie rips off existed for at least 2 years!

tarrker the dead of darth maul is similar to the dead of zygon
tarrker
They were making the suggestion that Episode 1 ripped off this.
Exactly, Ocarina of Time came out in 1998, this was made in 1985!
1:36 His face is so hilarious when he makes that expression!
13:21 And now I have a robot fetish. Thanks a lot. XD
Doesn't the hero's refusal to join the immortals remind you of Disney's Hercules?
I'm just glad he did because I would not want him to be my god......Jesus just the thought of him being our lord is enough to give me nausea
Honestly, I would love to see a sequel to this movie. I want to see what someone would do with this sci-fi universe, similar to the Star Wars Expanded Universe.
" Wait, Did she say shoot me? that doesn't sound pleasant maybe I should do something like an actually guard robot god, I'm a poor model"dead.
16:42
"Elan?"
"No, honey. Just lazy character design."
21:14 that guy on the left....that stare...its digging into my soul
i think this actually looks pretty interesting
2:46 Wouldn't whipping your slave with a fucking laser whip splice her in half?!? As it would this laser drill 5:23. And he 3:24 should be decapitated. Also:

5:46 what do his horns phase through?
12:04 There are 14+ bad guys on the ground... do they wait for their turn to fire their guns or what?! With 14+ guys blasting away there should be a whole lot more laser beams soaring against the ship...
21:32 Looks like the GM granted him a free level of soulknife for the climax... that's power gaming...
And I think I can help out with these:
12:15 "Kacka" or also "Kaka" is a German word. Little kids use it as an euphemism for shit, poop, turd, feces, stool, excrement, or crap. I get the feeling that this movie isn't iconic, but ironic.
15:24 For a split second Dagg's leg was lifted, so I assume he kicked the other guy in the balls. Like a real rogue. Not cool bro.
VisualGourmet 1 I think it's electric whip?
2 Yeahhhh... that sword thing... it just show how the story is badlly writen...
3 Yeahhhh... that horns thing... it just show how the movie is badlly drawn...
4 Errr... that's really it's own problem, many other movie henchman act like this too...
also that kick... I think they just missed few frames of animation...

And I'd criticize the idle henchmen in every movie :-) It's dumb and lazy screenwriting.
or maybe they just get the whip from Skeletor in He-man movie(NC did a rewevie of it)
Han Liu You mean the one Skeletor's henchman whipped He-Man's ass with? You're right, there seems to be a manufacturer who sells "Laser Torture Instruments for the Villain-About-Town [trade mark]"
Han Liu if Skeletor was in this movie i wouldnt have a problem with that
This movie was pretty good imo
I mean it had some good ideas, it was okay.
What some people consider crap is for others highly enjoyable. Respect that.
Myuutsuu85 i can respect that mlp is for autistic losers

Nice Quality, thanks for the upload.
Did anyone else noticed how Orin took a shot straight to the face at 11:49?
7:00-Doug's facial expression-PRICELESS!! :D
Did Phantom Menace rip-off a rip-off when Zygon died, he died like Darth Maul.
Take it as you will. I think that the writers went forward in time on that front.
+Shaw Dawg You could say
+Shaw Dawg And let us not forget the scene NC pointed out with the swords melting the door.
***** No that was supposed to be a rip off of The interrogation scene from Empire Strikes Back.
+Patrick Donnolley Torture scene, you mean. Han tells Leia afterwards that they didn't even ask him any questions.
The android lady ends up deflecting at least 3 laser bolts while they're carrying her.
9:40 Wait, they made fan theories for this movie?
+troodon9999 Wow, how many other old movies still are questioned?
I think we need a live action remake, probably 3 times better then today's star wars.
*You wouldn’t dare....*
He’s not *seriously* going to-
Oh he’s going there. See that look on his face? *That’s* the look of a man who’s about to plunder himself some *ass.*
13:04 oh god EDI no!
Also how is she not stronger than him?
Guess she let it happened?
I died laughing when you added the Looney Tunes ending music to the shot of Orin's bloody face after he's thrown in the tree! XD
In french, "caca" means poop. So many jokes can be made now.
This phrase was designed for a shitty movie! :O It fit so well... ;P
In spanish, the exact same word has the exact same meaning.
Same in Spanish
Albanian too
who knew shit would unite us so well?
In portuguese too.
I love Star Wars, watched the first movie when i was 7, and i still consider this a very good animated movie, one of my favs.
Damn. The eyes. I laughed, but was fucking terrified at the same time.
Thank you for the classic doctor who reference NC!
5:45
turns out to be... OH MY GOD, KING SOMBRA'S EQUESTRIA GIRLS CAMEO!
HIDE YOUR CHILDREN!
AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
***** Noooope, nope nope, his vocab is too broad. XD
PixarShark oh yeah... But still, he had them all mining for 'CRYSSSSSSSTAAAAALLLLL'
I just realized that the line at 17:24 is sampled in Aesop Rock's "Rings"
With all the Star Wars references you made in this video, I'm surprised you didn't cut to a clip of when Darth Maul was cleaved in two by Obi-Wan during Zaigon's death...
See that's actually funny, just like the reference to Qui-gon melting the metal door. Since this movie was released in 1985, and the Phantom Menace was released in 1999, it seams in the end the ripping off went both ways.
Gabriel Rodriguez Menendez Well they do say that piracy is the sincerest form of flattery;)
19:25 "I hope it's candy"
"That is not candy"
wait a minute! if the sword is inside Orin as it is his powers, then how da fuck did the nightmare alien slice his friend with the sword?!
Yeah!
He was a kaka to
Considering Sage's last review, I kind of believe the sentiment "it would probably kill you."
that made me giggle and the critic's face after had me in fucking tears
So, based on that 'special sword passed from person to person to thwart tyrants'...Starchaser is a Star Wars/Legend of Zelda crossover?
actually first zelda game come out in japan February 21, 1986, while this movie come out 1985.
so this isn't based to zelda any kind of way because zelda didn't exist yet.
More of a semi rip off.
watched this in a thunderstorm, and right as he said "a full and utter cross over is inevitable," thunder boomed. It was PERFECT XD
wow all the way back in 2012
Ryker Hunt
It's been a long time
holy shit a doctor who reference :') u have done me proud
11:13 AT-AT? I think you mean AT-ST. Come on. How did Sage even let that slide?

My favorite part is when Critic is crying at 8:17
man, i thought this looks cool as hell! how have i never heard of this?
RIGHT?! This film looks like a lot of fun! I'd love to check this universe out for myself.
b sher I'm with you. I'm a sucker for movies like this or Heavy Metal. 80s animation is something really fine!
I watched it and... meh. It wouldn't have been to such a problem rip off Star Wars, but the main characters and villains are SO boring.
b sher i personally hate it. I hate this kind of art style and will never like it because of good old Cartoon network cartoons that were amazing with detail yet simple but clear art style. Simply but clear, that's my favorite that this is waaay to much like clay models draw on paper with human details

8:27 Wonder if that was Doug's real life reaction to figuring that out. Wouldn't surprise me,and wouldn't blame him!
what kind of hat is sage wearing? i like it
Stevan Cavalcanti it looks like an italian coppola.
-5:04-5:10 I'll never get tired of laughing at that.
Oi! Vegeta! What's the rip-off count on this movie?
No?! Whadaya mean no?!
Fuck it, I'll do it: it's over 9000!
21
Bilbo baggins You actually counted? Bravo Mr. Baggins.

Have you seen his Dungeons and Dragons review?
Do I want to?

Maybe. Maybe not. "Hatatatatatatatatata!"

night on bald mountain at the beginning :D such a good piece :3
For those who believe Hollywood has no new ideas, this movie proves them right.
Nathaniel Levesque or they never had any new ideas to begin with. They always take ideas from other people since the film industry began
I love the space Jesus line, it's so ridiculously awesome
Anyone still here?
10:09. As long as it´s not constantly says "Hey" or "Listen", I can live with it.
Having seen the movie recently, I have to say it's not AS bad as Doug plays it out to be, but it's still not great. If you ask me, it uses lifted shots from Star Wars similar to how Turkish Star Wars does while MOSTLY doing it's own thing, unlike Brazilian Star Wars (Doesn't really count on the ground that it's a parody). I think one of the nails in the coffin for the movie was that it was marketed towards kids or families, the burn may have been less if it were probably PG-13. In addition to some long, drawn out panning shots of the ship flying by all these empty scenes for almost ten seconds.
I still liked it either way, 6.5 out of 10. Not bad, but nothing really special either.
6:38 - 7:10
I don't know why but that joke always gets me
11:14 that looks more like an AT-ST, critic.
"I'm too young and shirtless to die!"
Am I the only one who's reminded of Hercules as the movie nears the end?! Like the fact that he denies the choice to be all god-like?! I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE!
+1
Hard to believe, but this came before Hercules.
8:26 my reaction to this film. Nostalgia Critic and Sage need to do more reviews.
@ 21:31
Darth Maul anyone...?
22:30 That ending ... oh yeah, The Dark Crystal.
Actually install a flesh light in the Fembot and she'd be just about perfect.
Love how you used Fantasia music for Sage's entrance.
Sage is evil
Sage is wise
Sage is Awesome
6:53 Well that's certainly gonna give me the night terrors.
star whores? i thought the star wars porn parody was space nuts.
15:18 is another example.
I was going to say "Spaceballs," but the name was already taken.
19:10. It already more useful, that Navi from Zelda.
