Never Gonna Give You Up

Seems that nothing is sacred and no icons are safe from the Internet scourge that is the rickroll, not even the Muppets.

I'm sure you're aware that there are whacks of celebrity blogs out there, and well now you can add Darth Vader to the ever expanding list . . . it's all right, but it's no Chad Vader that's for sure. Since we're talking Star Wars, how about a sweet documentary about the love hate relationship that fans have Mr. Lucas aptly titled The People vs. George Lucas. Here's the film's official website if you're interested, and unless you have an asthma inhaler, pocket protector, taped glasses, many multi sided dice and spend a lot of time in basements you probably aren't. But most of my friends will be clicking the link.

Like the guys in the movie Fanboys that will hopefully some day be released. If you haven't heard of this movie yet you're probably a cool kid who gets out and has a lot of friends and spends very little 'pwning noobs' in the interwebs, but it's about a group of friends who try to sneak into Skywalker Ranch to steal an early copy of Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace to fulfill a friend's dying wish. Here's the trailer, check it out yo. Don't hold your breath, this movie was supposed to come out last year and the year before that.

Personally I think that George Lucas isn't much of a movie maker, but he's a god damned marketing genius.

AAAAAhhhhh, come on fuckin' guy!
