It is a golden time for the PR Team. Having convinced DARTH VADER of their worth, the PR Team’s ranks have swelled to three. Joined by the beguiling yet naive GREEN, Wilson has his eyes set on future glory. Sharpe, having dressed to impress his new colleague, is interested in a completely different prize…
If you can’t wait that long, you can view all six episodes RIGHT NOW for just $0.99.
The PR Team’s “Shit Stormtroopers Say” is a parody of the “Shit Girls Say” video by Kyle Humphrey and Graydon Sheppard. Yes, it’s a little late to the meme party but you’ll have to forgive us; we come from a galaxy far, far away, so it takes a while to beam videos to your planet.

Fun Trivia:
The video was shot on a sub-$400 budget by Death Star PR subcontractors over the course of a weekend in early March in and around Sydney, Australia.
Jamie edited the video and did all of the special effects himself. He is very glad it is over.
Connor was horribly upset that most of his amazing performances as “Shrugtrooper” were cut from the final edit.
Pablo Zubieta will win “Best Dressed” at any costume party you invite him to.
The “Tatooine” part of the shoot caused Robbie to become very, very badly sunburnt. Moral of the story: next time you visit a desert planet, don’t forget to take sunscreen and a hat.

Remember when you first heard there was going to be a new Star Wars film and your life was filled with joy and hope and life? And how when you went to the movies and actually saw The Phantom Menace, you left feeling a little deflated, or sad, or incredibly nerd rage-y? Well AT LEAST we can all agree the lightsaber battle at the end was cool and awesome, right?
Was it, though? Was it really?
Have a great day! (See you on the Dark Side soon)

Everyone knows Darth Vader is a massive hobby enthusiast. Whether it’s Force choking Rebels, building elaborate dioramas of his favourite Force choke moments, Force choking incompetent employees, or just anything to do with magically strangling anyone, really, the Dark Lord of the Sith is definitely a passionate hobbyist.
But his new choice of hobbies came as a bit of a surprise even to us.
Yes, that’s Darth Vader playing the bagpipes to the tune of the Star Wars theme (and briefly at the end the Imperial March), whilst riding a unicycle down a busy street. Wearing a kilt.
He truly is the Chosen One.
When Luke left Dagobah before completing his Jedi training with Yoda, he said it was to go and save his friends. But this video from OneMinuteGalactica reveals the truth (Warning: contains almost two minutes of fart jokes). Can’t say we blame him.
Since time began, man has been obsessed with finding the answers to existence’s most fundamental questions: Why are we here? What’s behind that door I’ve been told very clearly not to open, ever, under any circumstances? And of course, what would happen if you gave a bunch of ninjas lightsabers and Force powers?
The answer is, obviously, “Something totally awesome.”
Until you think about the fact that the above video is pretty much a better shot, more interesting, more exciting lightsaber battle than anything seen in the Prequel trilogy.
Have a depressing weekend!

Here in the Galactic Empire, we’re not ashamed to admit that we’re Sith Lords, but you don’t need to be killing Jedi and assorted other Rebel Scum every workday to know there’s something wrong in this galaxy when cocky drug smugglers and bipedal killer bears can serve openly in the Rebellion but our kids can’t openly celebrate Sithmas or pray to the Emperor in school. As an oppressive intergalactic totalitarian regime, we’ll end Obi-Wan’s war on our religion. And we’ll fight against liberal attacks on our religious heritage by pre-emptively destroying liberal worlds where people believe in made up stuff like “equality” and “freedom from prejudice”. The Dark Side made the galaxy strong. It can make her strong again. We’re the Death Star PR Team and we approve this message.
