Title: Star Wars Kid
Post by: Luigison on August 21, 2003, 03:06:51 PM

The Star Wars Kid is basically a 15 year old nerd from Canada who became famous last April, 2003 when he got caught pretending to be a Jedi on video at his school. His classmates, to be cruel, put his video on the Internet and humiliated him. Soon, Star Wars fans began editing the video to make the Star Wars Kid look cool (some of it is indeed mean).

Now, there's even a big rumor Lucasfilms wants this kid to make a cameo in Episode 3 !!!

Apparantly, over a million people have downloaded this video. I think everyone should see this.

Not only is it funny, but I think it's great when a fan who got humiliated coulc end up being in his favorite movie.

Episode 3: Druken Jedi Master LOL

Time slowed and Reality bent.
But on and on the Eggman went.

 Yep, I saw this quite some time ago. Quite humorous, if I do say so myself.

 Thanks for posting it though, Luigison.

I have heard that he actually hated this video, and tried to sue someone or another over it.

The world would be a much cleaner place if people would eat their own trash.
