On Earth, this would be Vader's real life. The only thing missing is a scene of him playing a Cthulhu-themed role-playing game with a bunch of other middle-aged men.
#2
It may have beaten “Family Guy” to the punch on Star Wars spoofs, but “Robot Chicken” is still just a bunch of grown men playing with Star Wars dolls. Your move, Green. Click here to watch the clip on Hulu!

In Star Wars, even the elevators are action-packed. Well, at least in terms of elevators, they are.
#4
Well done, Peter. We're especially proud that you didn't fart. For a guy like you that's really saying something.

Just in case you were wondering how the sequel got it's name, here's a clip of the Emperor delivering the titular line. Is it still a titular line if it's in a different movie? Well, anyway, he says it. And it became a title, so there.

If Star Wars were like “America’s Next Top Model,” this scene would totally have been in it. That goes for any reality show, when you think about it. It even goes for any random moment from my life....minus the part about blowing stuff up. I don't want to attract the Department of Homeland Security's attention. Doo doodee doo.

R2 does raise a good point. Why waste time dealing with a crappy OS when you can just make a robot do your work for you? Although he's probably not as persuasive as Lois's bosom. Unless he uses his lasers. It's amazing the things robots can do with lasers. Click here to watch the clip on Hulu!

Thank God the couch was just in an outer-space garbage pile and not a curb in Brooklyn, or Luke Skywalker would be having serious bed bug problems. And it's not easy to conquer evil when your body is covered with itchy red sores…not that we would know. It...was in the news...honest. Click here to watch the clip!
How good of a year was it for Lady Gaga? So good that she was able to get the guy who directed “Ray Of Light” to lens a seven-minute epic in which she drugs her boyfriend, dresses like a robot and somehow manages to take the hottest mug shot ever. Not too shabby. 
We’re not sure what it was about chicks and violence this year, but in this clip Dead Weather frontwoman Alison Mosshart brought the pain on her bandmate Jack White, while ruining a perfectly good leather jacket in the process. In her defense, he was shooting a machine gun at her. 
If there was any denying that director Patrick Daughters has become the Hype Williams of ’00s indie rock, then this smart and surreal clip sealed the deal. In a word? Illuminating. 
By the time that Kid Cudi dropped the video for "Day 'N' Nite" last winter, it was hard not to be burnt out on the song. (Hell, they even played it on Entourage months before this thing turned up). Thankfully, the accompanying video was far more visionary and forward thinking than anyone could have expected. 
Clearly, this is the way that you follow up a video about a bunch of freaks dry-humping each other: You bring in four bikini-clad girls on motorcycles and follow them to the hottest tailgate party in the world. 
"We're Not Gonna Take It." "Fight For Your Right (To Party)." Hell, just about any clip by Blink-182. When it comes to classic music videos it always helps to rebel against authority. In 2009, Asher Roth understood this point and he used it to pull off one of the year's most memorable clips. Now, who's up for another game of beer pong? 
People only watch videos on the Internet now? Yeah, that may be true. But no one told Green Day that as they made this cinematic clip about how love in the 21st Century can often feel like making out in a room surrounded by gunfire. The fact that it kind of reminded of us an old Korn video was clearly forgivable. 
That Depeche Mode knows how to make strangely compelling videos should be no surprise to anyone who was old enough to turn on a television in the early ’90s. But what is somewhat shocking is how this bizarre clip, which came twelve records into their career, was able to captivate just about anyone who saw it. 
The biggest challenge facing the “Empire State Of Mind” video? Making a clip as inspiring as the song's Alicia Keys-sung chorus. But as Jay takes us from the projects to the penthouse, he proves that New York really is the one place in the world where any dream can materialize. Even one as outlandish as a former hood kid becoming text message buddies with the President. 
The week that Matt And Kim finished the video for “Lessons Learned,” someone from their camp stopped by our offices to play it. They didn't send a link or messenger over a DVD. They showed up with a laptop and sat there as we watched every frame. This may not seem that significant, but in a time when it's becoming harder to discern the actual currency of a music video, it said a lot.
This year, when listening to his emotionally vulnerable third album, it was easy to imagine Cage as sensitive artist wandering around New York with a dark cloud over his head. Turns out, he kind of was. 
After having a surprise hit with Fantasies, this video served as the inevitable response to new fans wondering if there was anyone in Metric other than Emily Haines. Not that she didn’t make for a great bass player or anything. 
The second best video of the year to prominently feature red Solo cups was a breakthrough moment for an artist whose breakthrough moment was long overdue. We couldn’t have been prouder. 
This is what the most hyped band of 2007 looked like in 2009: Four guys, in an alley, working overtime to keep your attention. Which is precisely why we never looked away. 
The conversation had to have gone like this: "Guys, for our next video we should act out scenes from that movie about arm wrestling. What's it called? Over The Top? Yes, Over The Top! I mean, our singer already looks like a trucker." And then this happened. 
We're happy for you and we're gonna let you finish… but "Paranoid" was the fifteenth greatest video of 2009! It was Vertigo meets "Disturbia," which even Kanye's critics had to admit was a pretty classy move. 
When the late Heath Ledger began turning up at Modest Mouse shows in 2007, longtime fans seemed puzzled. How could a Hollywood A-Lister love their beloved underground vets? Then this bizarre-yet-beautiful clip turned up and it all made sense: He was one of them. 
Okay, we know this is going to sound crazy, but what if they did this... on a treadmill!? 
With their second video off of Appeal To Reason, these brainy punks tried to point out that our last president might not have done the best job. Then came this third video and Rise Against managed to make that point in a way that could cause even the most stubborn warmonger to break down and cry. 
When Dinosaur Jr. got back together, you scoffed to your friends. "Lou, J and Murph are all having a mid-life crisis," you said. Well, guess what? You were right.
