May the force be with you! Star Wars fans

One of my favorite Star Wars spoofs is Trooper Clerks.

Dark Helmet for me (though the little Alien critter that does the Michigan J. Frog routine in the diner scene is also a favorite).....

May The Schwartz Be With You........

Not a character, but my favourite from that movie is the Winnebago. What I'd pay for one of those....

A few years ago, Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry had a temporary exhibit on visual effects in the movies. They had models and props from various films - the mechanical shark from "Jaws"; the hydraulic lifter suit Ripley wore to fight the Alien Queen in "Aliens" (as well as a full-sized mockup of the Queen herself); scale models of the humpback whales from "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home"; and some models from "Spaceballs", including one of the Winnebago, complete with rocket engines and wings.

I'm working with adobe after effects to make lightsaber effects. I thinking of getting some friends together and making a lightsaber battle video. I used a unpowered up Anakin ROTS lightsaber to do a test with on my crappy web cam. (fans of star wars know that Anakins lightsaber was Blue till he became a sith) here's the video.. tell me what you think. Lightsaber Test

I'm trying to figure out how to use After Effects in conjunction with Premiere Pro; how does AE work?

Looks good. Did you get the sound from the movies, or did you make it yourself?

Nice job with the lightsaber test there, Cloud!

Are you guys planning to do something along the lines of Art of the Saber?

This is the third time I've seen that vid, and I'm still:

The choreography of this little movie is excellent. The two Ho brothers are both well trained in Kung Fu style and Kung Fu weaponry. There were some slight weaks spots in which the prearranged choreographic nature of the fight showed through, and of course there was no blood or other evidence of injury when the 'good' guy was killed off, but nonetheless does not take away from an excellent production.
