As many readers know, the film that changed John Doe’s life forever was Star Wars. If that little homage to the classic Flash Gordon style Science-Fiction-Fantasy-Adven ture had never been made it may have been a very different Doe that is blogging right now. Maybe he would have written about cooking or travel, perhaps cars or sports instead of being the cinema obsessed voyeur you know?
Enough with the shallow hypothetical. Johnny boy did take a hit of that celluloid crack pipe when he was 5 yars old and Star Wars was his first buzz. Normally fan fiction, fan films and fan made material for any movie fails to stimulate. As a genre, fan produced tributes are about as attractive as Jabba the Hut working at a Hooters, or being marooned on Dagobah with your ship stuck in a swamp and no Yoda to teach you the how to move massive objects with the force….see what I mean, geek!

Point is JD was impressed and amused by the comedy video below that comes care of Collegehumor.com. In two minds about spoiling the content any further than the headline, let’s just say its funny real world laughs from the galaxy far, far away.
The second video serves as a compendium piece that’s armed with impressive production values and an entertaining original story. The short film “Makazie One” is a gritty war film with everybody’s favourite soldiers in white doing bloody battle against an army of Clone warrior Boba-Fett’s.
Rather than make up a synopsis, here is how the filmmaker, with the handle ‘Clutch” sets up his minor opus:
“Set in the Star Wars universe during the time period between Episodes III and IV, an elite soldier has been sent to track down and destroy a known threat to the Empire through intense ground battles and haunting imagery of death that surrounds the environment. The unsuspecting enemy to the new Imperial order has no idea what he is up against when the two finally meet for an action packed surprise ending.”
A laser blasting combat film that takes the midicloriants out of you, this is certainly the type of fan fiction that succeeds. The authentic FX, immersing sound design and urgent cinematography all combine for a fun ride that this fanboy feels must be shared.
So, John Doe says in his best Jedi Master voice, “You will enjoy this footage”… and you reply “We will enjoy this footage.”
