There actually was a “Star Wars Disco” album put out by Meco in the late 1970s. This is a surprisingly good replication of that. They also did *The Wizard of Oz.*
No joke, I misheard a couple of lines in the original Star Wars (1977), when I was 7 or 8 years old (can't remember if I saw it right away or during the holdover): Ben Kenobi: Instead of the real line, "The Jundland Wastes are not to be traveled lightly", I thought he said, "A gentleman wastes enough to be traveled, likely" 🤣 Hey, who would expect these esoteric proper names George Lucas made up out of the blue? Luke Skywalker: Instead of the real line, "You fought in the Clone Wars?", I naturally thought he said, "You fought in the colonial wars?" Hey, at that point, who ever heard of a _clone war_ ?
When you can't open a jar of something, I think it would be cool if people exclaimed " Oh pickles!". Please help me get this off the ground, I really want to make this a thing. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation
As a fan of Everybody Loves Raymond who was way to young to watch it when it was first on I found that one reference to the show leaving the air a perfect time capsule I didn't know I needed.
This was so awesome to see. I remember that night. Thanks Dave and may the Force Be With You! Miss the show more then you will ever know. Watched the first one. Watched the last one. And all with NBC and then CBS. You are a National Teasure Dave
Here's a good one. Luke Skywalker: Leave it to me. I have experience in blowing large balls. I just need to find a large crack with a hole I can shoot into.
I was a little nervous when they got to Darth Vader. I knew that less than a good James Earl Jones voice just wouldn't do. Not to worry. He delivered the goods. As my favorite talk show hosts pass the torch, I feel like we've lost something that's very important. Carson, Letterman, O'Brien, and Craig Ferguson have been my nighttime blue ribbon winners. Granted, I tend to be drawn toward the sometimes eccentric hosts. Mike Douglas was always a daytime favorite for me. I haven't watched that much of the Jimmy Fallon show. He came in after the era I considered truly classic. But, I don't have anything against him. To the contrary, it seems to me he can do almost anything he wants to do--and, do it well.
It's trivial to come up with things no Star Wars character would ever say. What would be more clever would be to come up with things that they would never say that are closely related to things they did say, such as "I've got a good feeling about this."
"Is there a single stormtrooper in the whole empire, who can hit a urinal from 6 inches away?" You know why they have such huge spaceships? Because every one of them can throw himself at the ground, from close range, and miss. Things you won't hear ~ "You couldn't find a droid. You couldn't find your own rear end with a torch and a mirror and both hands. Not with a week to search."
Bold move having Vader stand next to a Tusken Raider.
He HATES them!! (like sand too, as it happens)
Right, talk about bad planning.
Almost went over my head.
Good one
That's some PRODUCTION VALUE, baby!
I bet that ice machine had the time of its life with R2-D2! 😘
Hope it didn't give it the old cold shoulder...
I heard he used the following pickup line:
"Damn girl, you R2 fine, and if you're lucky, I'll give you the D2!"
That explains BB-8
I noticed some kind of lubricant in my ice that I didn't want.
I can never hear the Star Wars theme song without thinking about Bill Murrays lyrical take on it.
You are a man of culture.
And Paul was in that skit! I forgot all about that!
If they should bar wars...
Yup
The
The flute is a great addition to the theme.
they probably added that on RUclips here so they don't have to pay the insane musical rights fees
It's the Meco Star Wars theme. Very popular in the 70's!
The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the ability to open a pickle jar.
"I got that on me!"
There's no such thing as too much Paul Shaffer.
Well now we know why he was with the Worlds Most Dangerous Band 🤣🤣
Unless you are a teenage girl...
ooooooh i disagreee
Glad to call Mr. Shaffer one of Thunder Bay's own.🙂
I also remember "Top Ten Bad Things About Owning A Timeshare With Darth Vader". That was also really funny.
Haven't seen it, but I would expect: "I have altered the maintenance fees. Pray I do not alter them further."

@@Hinatachan360 "A Fifth of Beethoven" was actually a hit for Walter Murphy and the Big Apple Band.

May the 4th be with you, Dave!

May the farce be with you. 🖖
I love seeing this clips again, thank you for continuing to share them
Paul in there with the disco version
Right ! Paul is a great musician and side kick !
It's the Meco Star Wars theme. Very popular in the 70's!
"Star Wars ... nothin' but ... Bar Wars ..."
That Bill Murray sketch was a long, long time ago and far, far away.
@@chasbodaniels1744 Yes, but it was good. So very, very good.
@@chasbodaniels1744 And I remember it like it was yesterday!!
Blith
I was hoping for "Damn. Those storm troopers are great marksmen!"
Attack of the Blinth is easily the best of the prequel trilogy.
And you’re not just blinthely saying that either.
Thanks for leaving the walk-in music in!
Brilliant (and timely) thanks Team Letterman.
They missed a golden opportunity by not having Vader say, "Who's your daddy!"
How about a nod to Letterman's home state and have Vader instead say, "Hoosier Daddy?"
@@tdogg46142 NICE! 🤣
#10!!! "Somehow, Palpatine returned."
#9!!!!............
Number 11: “I wish I was a Disney character.”
I miss this show so much.
Sometimes even the Force can't get a jar of Vlasic pickles open!
R2's joke was the best!
Joke? Pretty sure he was just bragging.
I miss Dave and the show. It was a large part of my life beginning in the 80's until it ended. A Classic Show.
Now me2.
I love Vlasik Kosher pickles, but they can be damned hard to open.
The Dark Side of the Force is the pathway to many abilities that some consider.... unnatural.
"I got that on me."
God I miss this show
"Fish Sticks?" Don't be ridiculous! We've got CHOCOLATE!!!
And tacos!
R2D2’s was hilarious
3:05 the Imperial guard's voice lol

that flute though
Best Top Ten! 😂
R2 had the best line.
"How was she?" "Frigid"
Love seeing a non CGI r2d2. Just like 1977.
#2 That was a great shot by that storm trooper
#1 Luke, I am your father
Interesting comment about “Everyone Loves Raymond” ending. CBS was just about to start “How I Met Your Mother” and “Big Bang Theory”.
Aka *That Show Bob Barker Did a Guest Shot on* and *That Show Bob Newhart Did A Guest Shot On.*
I wanted to see Luke ask if you want fries with that?
In his Joker voice.
Paul's reaction at 0:20 is awesome.
As a fan of Everybody Loves Raymond who was way to young to watch it when it was first on I found that one reference to the show leaving the air a perfect time capsule I didn't know I needed.

that was actually very good
I thought #1 was going to be "I talked to Barzini".
That Ewok looked like a Halloween costume from the store.
They did in the movies too.
We miss you David
Attack of the Blinth has a better ending than The Rise of Skywalker.
Rey.
Rey what?
Rey Blinth
Yup! With sour cream!
Hysterically hilarious!!!
Walking off, I sure thought that Stormtrooper was going to TRY to blast the Ewok in the back of the head. LOL
#9 was the best! 🤣
I was on that David Letterman show. Only. I was in costume. Lol.
Who were you?
3:48 this is the way
His sect could take off their helmets. What did Din Djarin’s do?
What character cussed the most in the movies?
R2-D2, he's bleeped every time he speaks
"Live Long And Prosper!" 🖖
How did they do this without Bill Murray?
Like practically every episode of SNL since 1980?

Wow Miami Heat reference right after the swept the Wizards
This is proof that JOHNNY CARSON IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE KING OF LATE NIGHT
Vader has a very particular set of skills.
Pretty funny and great costumes. You don't get those at Walmart.
Awesome!!!!

2:25 Darth Maul is a gay fish, confirmed Legends.
#8 the Ewok saying "Seacrest, out", somebody in charge at Wheel of Fortune needs to say that.
Darth Vader sounded like the good ol' "Chad Vader" from blame society channel 😁
Such nostalgia!
Which is a more iconic skit. Bill Murray's star wars or Will Farrell's cowbell?
This Darth Vader too short lol

0:12 Revenge of the Sith, Dave
I would have guessed that the number 1 thing never said by a Star Wars character, for Darth Vader to say would be “Luke I am Your Father”
"Luke, I am your father."
“These things have made something like $17billion”
“I got that on me”
😂😂😂
Imagine if he'd said "the Emperor survived."
I didn't realise the imperial guards talked....
''You really shouldn't be kissing your sister that way!'' didn''t make it I guess.
How about, "Never take sides with anyone against the family again, EVER!"
Those were the Days!!!
I know it's weird, but here, it looks like Letterman has never seen a Star Wars movie.
“I got that on me!”
DARTH IN DUTCH MEANS "FATHER" ( FOR MY FELICIA)❤❤❤
Star War at that time grossed 17 billion dollars. How much did “critically acclaimed “On Golden Pond” etal make?

"I can't believe its not butter"
Stormtrooper, "hit it on the first shot"
I once used the force to open a jar of Vlasic kosher pickles 🥒
Vader should have said “Luke, I am your father”

Back when Late Night TV was watchable
"These Ewoks look sexy!"
Not one of their better efforts
Chewbacca dander! 😂😂😂
i didn't know the Imperial guard talks
I would have laughed if years later one of those things was said in Disney sequel trilogies.
