We sent COED correspondents Yang Miller and Shawn Wickens to check out the absolute mayhem that was sure to go down at the midnight NYC premiere of Star Wars Episode 1 The Phantom Menace in 3D. As you can see, it was pure pandemonium. A dozen years later, we know one thing for sure – Jar Jar Binks is one likable dude. Highlights include all the girls there to s… Click to read more

Last week, we featured a Blue Ivy homeless sign, a place you never want to check into on Foursquare, cleaning her vajayjay with yogurt, a TwitCar, and Ronald McDonald’s mom. This week, we’ve got an awesome prank to play on the blind, penis espresso, Jesus consoling Tim Tebow, the world’s largest nipples, Canadian CSI and much more. Check… Click to read more

This past weekend was the premiere episode of Saturday Night Live’s 37th season. Alec Baldwin was the host (for the eleventieth time) and integral part of yet another round of hilarious “never before seen” screen test auditions. This time, it was for the 25th anniversary of Top Gun. These always seem to do so well, it’s amazing they haven’t done more. Take a look at this past weekend’s clips along with the other classics then let us know which movie you think they should do next in the comments section after the jump.

Look, motherf*cker. I know what sound a lightsaber makes, OK? It’s just hard to transcribe. I’ve been practicing making lightsaber noises since I was a little kid and by now I’m pretty godd@mn good at it. I’m not as good as these guys though. They’re obviously much cooler than me.

We’ve featured dubstep a couple times here at COED – once to spotlight magical motion-freezing headphones and another to highlight how nutty those Russians are. Today, we get a dubstep video that features the Dark Side. Growing up, all the kids wanted to be either a Jedi or Han Solo. Me? I wanted to be Vader. Dude’s got a kick-ass voice and can choke you out from across the table without touching you. Attention someone with video editing skillz – cut a dubstep mashup of cinema’s greatest villains… let’s introduce a little anarchy. Check out the vid after the jump.

This video apparently won the ‘George Lucas Selects’ award. A filmmaker’s friend, never having seen the movie, is asked to relate Episodes IV,V, and VI. I wish I could say that she messes it up for some other reason than she’s a girl, but that would be lying. Check out her hilarious attempt after the jump!
At COED we try to pay homage to the funniest sites on the web. With our Tumblrs of the Week column, we highlight the best, most WTF Tumblrs. This week’s Tumblrs feature timeless wisdom from an elderly green resident of Dagobah, Steve Buscemi’s peepers added to chicks’ faces, and the epitome of existing in your 20s now. Check ‘em out after the jump.

James Montgomery Flagg’s 1917 Uncle Sam “I Want You” poster was based on the original British Lord Kitchener poster of three years earlier. It was used to recruit soldiers for both World War I and World War II. The Uncle Sam character is actually based on Samuel Wilson, a meat packer from upstate NY who shipped beef to the U.S. Army in barrels marked “U.S.” during the War of 1812. Flagg called it “most famous poster in the world.” We’d have to agree as countless artists have given it their own twist with iconic characters substituting for Uncle Sam like Darth Vader, Doctor Doom, GI Joe’s Cobra, Master Shredder and more. Check it out after the jump.

AOL News reported that we (America) would not be able to survive a Battle: Los Angeles style attack from threats beyond our solar system, according to retired Army Colonel John Alexander. As a species I think we know when to hold ‘em and when to fold ‘em, that’s what makes movies in which fellow humans overcome insurmountable odds so entertaining and rewarding. But, some movies really stretch our suspension of disbelief with their extremely lopsided David vs. Goliath battles that are, in reality, un-winnable. Which movies? Find out after the jump!
