Kenneth Williams as Darth Vader

Here's a fun Friday Star Wars thing. British comic actor Kenneth Williams of the Carry On movies, as Darth Vader in his introductory confrontation with Princess Leia. Kinda gives the whole scene a very different tone, huh?

Princess Leia Dressed as Darth Vader

"Why," you ask? I dunno, maybe because that family's got issues?? Also, its awesome, so just go with it. Like you never tried on Dad's lightsaber!

Big Bird on the Death Star! Shit officially just got real.

Because Batman and Star Wars are still the coolest things ever - not even all those SW prequels and Batman's upcoming new pad-tastic costume could change that - check out these awesome images placing the Dark Knight of Gotham in a galaxy far, far away.

George Lucas Strikes Back [HD Video]

Prequels? Jar-Jar? Chewbacca dancing to "Welcome to the Jungle?" Who is this douchewang and what has he done with George Lucas?

'Star Wars' Meets 'Withnail and I' [Video]

"Luke - you must go to the Dagobah system. There you will meet the Jedi master who trained me - in the art of rare herbs and prescribed chemicals. They will tend to make you very high."

Princess Leias in the TARDIS

Sweet merciful mash-up! Better hope that thing is bigger on the inside, it's full of Princess Leias from all over the multiverse. Here hoping that Daleks, like Stormtroopers, die after taking a single shot from a blaster.
