Pink Five 

(Via Thomas) Time-pass doesnt get much funnier than this. Atom Films has a series of short films *loosely* based on the Star Wars movies (in fact the first part won the George Lucas Selects Award in the 2003 Star Wars Fan Film Awards). The first part is called Pink Five and the second part is called Pink Five Strikes Back.

Part 1 -- Ever wonder how the Rebel Alliance would have fared if a Valley Girl was at the controls of an X-wing fighter during the daring raid on the Death Star? Now you can answer the troubling questions that arise from this very concept!

Part 2 -- The "totally awesome" saga of Stacey, the Pink Five fighter pilot continues as she treks to Dagobah, where Master Yoda trains her to be a Jedi. Kinda.

Cant get enough? Apparently, the third installment, called (what else) "Revenge of Pink Five" is in the works. I personally think these Pink Five movies are better than the new installments of the Star Wars series (at least the humour is intentional). Perhaps Lucas should learn from his fans how its done :)
