STAR BORES
Episodes 7 - ?
A not-so-long time ago
in a multi-plex not so far away,
George Lukas dusted off his entertaining though light weight
trilogy of science fiction movies known as "Star Wars" and created
a wholly unnecessary self-aggrandizing trilogy of mostly boring and overwrought sequels known as "Jar-Jar Binks? Really?" At that point it all should have rested. BUT NO! The Walt Disney Company, also never content to let a good thing go until it has to be carried out flat on its back gasping for breath, has purchased the franchise and now not- so- proudly but profitably presents:

The Cash Register Strikes Back
(a preview)
Scene 1 - Duck Skywalker is being trained in the art of fighting with light sabres by his new Jedi master, Dopey-Wan Kenobi.
Dopey-Wan: Duck, concentrate! Feel the Force within you!
Duck: I am feeling the Force, very deeply! BTW, when is Snow White coming over, got any idea, huh, huh, HUH?
Dopey-Wan: Not that Force!
Duck: What do you want, I'm a 17 year old kid living on the planet Tatooine!
Just then, a projection of a young woman emanates from R2-Pluto.
Projection: Help me, Dopey-Wan!
Duck: Why it's a Disney Princess! think it's Jasmine.
Projection: Help me, Dopey-Wan!
Duck: Now it's changed, now it's Cinderella! What's going on here, Dopey-Wan?
Dopey-Wan: Remind me to train you in the ways of Marketing next, Duck Skywalker!

Scene 2 - Luke and Dopey-Wan (together with C-SmeePO and R2-Pluto) enter an alien bar attempting to book passage for the planet Alderaan.
Duck: OMG, look at this awful place!
C-SmeePO: Yes, Master Duck, I haven't seen so many freakish, mutant-like, disreputable characters since the last time I attended a party at Donald Trump's house.
Dopey-Wan: We'd like to hire you to take us to Alderaan, Captain. What is your name?
Han Solo: I'm Han Solo. This is my partner, LeFouBacca.
Duck: Wait a minute! Han Solo? Your name is the same as my favorite hobby?
Dopey-Wan: Remind me to train you in the ways of Marketing next, Duck Skywalker!

Han Solo: That's right, kid. Disney always knows what it's doing. Right, Fouey?
Le Fou: Yes, Gaston! I mean, Han.
Scene 3 - Duck Skywalker and Darth Goofy engage in a fierce battle with light sabres.
Darth Goofy: Fine move! Very impressive.
Duck: That's nothing; you should see me drink milk and spit it out my duck bill.
Darth Goofy: DUCK, I AM YOUR FATHER!
Duck: You're my father?!!! But I thought my father was...
Darth Goofy: Frozen? Not anymore! Not when I hear there's a good buck to be made!
Duck: So you are ... you are ...
Darth Goofy: I am Walt Disney, your father! And father of Star Wars, Disney World, ABC, ESPN, Good Morning America (talk about Goofy!) and just about everyone and everything else!
I Am YOUR Father Too, Reader!
Pay Me!
Walt "Anakin" Disney

It's just a matter of time, Perry, until Disney tracks you down and makes you wish you'd never been born...
Lexi,
I already feel that way.
What more can Disney do to me?
The election is tomorrow. After which you and I can begin communicating on the same wavelength again.
Just as long as you stay off the subject of sport...
