Star Wars is a series that has captured the imagination of the entire world and has inspired filmmakers to pick up a camera and put their own spin on George Lucas‘ universe (Hi, Mr. Abrams). In honor of its legacy, here’s some of the best Star Wars fan films you can catch on YouTube. Premiering at the 1997 San Diego ComicCon, “Troops” was one of the first major “Star Wars” fan films made. The film parodies the TV series “Cops” as a team of Stormtroopers patrols Tatooine and encounters two people very close to Luke Skywalker. Darth Maul was one of.

Star Wars Tales is a quarterly anthology series published by Dark Horse from 1999 to 2005. Each issue was 64 pages long and contained a variety of stories, in both number, length, content, and tone. Most stories were considered non-canonical “Infinities” stories unless canonized elsewhere (though of course, now all such stories are deemed non-canonical “legends”). In the course of its six year run, Star Wars Tales featured stories from dozens of different creators, covering numerous facets of the Star Wars universe, from serious, thoughtful tales to comedic ones to straight-up fan-demanded “what if?” type stories. Here are ten of the best, entertaining in their own right but also representative of the breadth of content available in this series (all of which are currently available to subscribers of Marvel Unlimited, and were earlier collected into six trade collections that can probably still be found on Amazon and the like).

The results of this Sunday’s TLC pay per view may well have been spoiled by WWE’s annual Tribute To The Troops show.
The tribute to the Us armed forces was taped this week in Jacksonville, Florida, but doesn’t air until next Wednesday – three days after the upcoming PPV.
TLC will see the defence of every championship on the main roster, and the belt-holders at this week’s special could therefore be those booked to win on Sunday – thereby allowing WWE to preserve a chronological sequence of on-air events.
Of course, there’s no ruling out the possibility that WWE will deviate from these apparent plans, and simply make it clear that Tribute To The Troops is a pre-taped event. With that in mind, be aware that the following paragraph contains potential TLC spoilers.

If you’re a fan of Star Wars, you have no doubt seen Kevin Rubio’s utterly fantastic short film Troops, a satire that applied the formula and style of t.v. show Cops to a routine Stormtrooper patrol of Tatooine. Well, now he’s back, teaming up with Synaptic Studios, with a very different, but still funny, type of video, mashing together Return of the Jedi with Ocean’s Eleven to bring us Ackbar’s Eleven. Some of the little touches here, and at times both movies synch up beautifully. Check it out below.

Welcome to Issue 27 of ‘The Marvelous Da7e!’
Real quick mission statement: this column is for discussion of superhero movie news and superhero movies…Or Is It?
This week: A bad comic fan film is in the news for blatant theft. Let’s not let that tarnish fan films.
This Shia Labeouf thing is getting weird.
Mr. Labeouf, for those who don’t know, released a short film that ended up being a word-for-word visual version of Daniel Clowes’ 2007 comic, “Justin M. Damiano”, just with names and a few props changed. No where in the film is Clowes acknowledged and the artist and his editor are super-pissed at the plagiarism at hand.
This is all a little surreal, because I had seen this comic pop up on Tumblr during Cannes when Shia Labeouf’s short HowardCantour.com had premiered. Someone had blogged it with a caption like: ust saw a live action version of this.

Trent Reznor And Atticus Ross Win Golden Globe For Scoring The Social Network
I’m so stoked these guys won. I love what Reznor said about the music industry vs. the film industry: “I think that the impact of the film in our current society is much deeper than where music is currently. That doesn’t mean I don’t think music is very important but the music business has very much done everything it can to lessen the weight and importance of music as art because it’s commercialized it to the point it’s rewarded if it’s disposable and shallow, and just seeing the amount of attention we’ve gotten from our score as opposed to an album. It’s been...

In the 12 years since Kevin Rubio's Troops launched the Star Wars fan film craze there's been many subsequent short films set in that galaxy far, far away. Most of them have been done as dramas/adventures, with a few comedies thrown in for good measure. But even with all of the Star Wars fan films that have been made to date, you're telling me that no one has thought up a blacksploitation fan film starring the coolest cat this side of Bespin, Lando Calrissian?
Thanks to the coolest cat of the comic book online realm (Comics2Film's Rob Worley, who's latest comic, Scratch 9, deserves your eyeball love) I've had the chance to see the trailer for Blackstar Warrior. This shakycam footage was shot on a Blackberry at last week's Comic-Con, but you can still enjoy it for what it is: a trailer for a blacksploitation Star Wars movie with Lando as the leading man.
