    Suggestion: Try watching it fuckin' plastered. Makes dealing easier, plus you get to drink a bunch of Caffrey's.

  2. Parody? by jmd! · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Wow, these are pretty bad. They didn't really even change any of the plot, or dialog. Just substituted in SW characters doing Pulp Fiction line for line.

    If you want Pulp Fiction, go rent it. If you want a SW parody, go rent Space Balls.

      Yeah, but doing Dance #4 should keep a lot of the Natelie Portman trolls occuppied for weeks to come. You can't tell me that's a bad thing.

      Besides, it's more the flash animation that the dialog that keeps the whole thing interesting. The image of the Queen Amidala character ODing is art in itself, at least as much as the stuff hanging on the walls in museams. Besides, the fact that it uses a lot of Pulp Fiction is a great example of the value of Constitutionally-protected parody, ain't it?

      And my UID is still lower than yours. Damn, I'm loaded.

  3. Get Rid of the Splash Intro on Each Episode, Gah! by pryan · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Okay, I got through about five issues before I couldn't stand it anymore. I've seen Pulp Fiction many times, I've seen Ep.I. No change in dialog wore on me, but the drawing is someone stimulating.

    I suppose I would have gone through the whole thing if it weren't for the splash intro for each episode. Gah, I admire the person who went to the effort, but create a set without the splash intro for each issue!

  4. Where's Jon Katz When You Need Him? by 5arah · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Not only is it a word-for-word redux of Pulp Fiction with Star Wars characters, it SOUNDS like it was read off of a script. The Darth Maul character was so pathetically nasally I barely made it through the entire thing without wanting to choke him.

    ALTHOUGH:
    The animation and drawings were decent. There were some issues with timing, but in all it was okay. I applauded the character choices as well.

    IN CONCLUSION:
    Getting a better soundman or sound software (sound forge rules!) AND better people who know their lines instead of reading it off a script, would have made the entire thing a ton better.

    I'd give it 1.5 stars out of 4.
