A Family Guy joke that aged PERFECTLY (Star Wars) #shorts

This was just for fun. Im NOT explaining the Death Star weakness Plot from a new hope and obviously, Galen didn't make the death star weakness for "aesthetics" (it was pretty clear in the movie). Point was the weakness was intentionally put there by people who worked on the death star in both the parody and the movie where as before disney bought star wars the hole wasn't put there intentionally to blow the death star up. It was accidental, not planned, and not predicted by family guy. No one knew anything before rogue one

After all…if there’s no hole, there’s no goal. That architect was a man of culture

George was so chill. When Mel Brooks asked him about parodying star wars, George said yes. All George asked was that Lone Star was not dressed as Han. So Mel dressed him like Indiana Jones instead lol

The Animaniacs also made a parody episode back in the 90's when in tatoine they ask Luke, what do you do for a living, he answers "I am a farmer", and what do you grow in the dessert? , he answered "sand" then points to a dune and says, " this year we had a bountiful harvest"

As a person who worked 10 years on a Star wars video game, there's nothing that is released to the public without Lucas's approval.

The thing is though it wasn't actually sabotage until Rogue One claimed it was. A 2m thermal exhaust for a space station the size of a moon is actually impossibly amazing engineering rather than a design flaw

One of the best thing about Star Wars pre-disney was how chill Lucas when people asked him if they can parodied his beloved series. Gary the stormtrooper is still the best thing that came out from parody.

Technically speaking, the exhaust hole did actually have a purpose it was meant to get rid of heat from the Death Star's core. The Empire never considered it a weakness because they didn't believe the rebels would be crazy enough to attack a battle station of that size. So, while it was intended to be a flaw in the plan in canon, it was before that part of a more practical part of the Death Star's overall function

Plot twist: the Rogue One writers stole the whole concept from family guy

I can totally see him explaining its existence as an “aesthetic choice.”

The other great thing when Mel brooks pitched Spaceballs Lucas loved it so much he actually brought the same team that helped with Star Wars to help make sure that this movie was authentic to space

The robot chicken star wars bits, specifically the palpatine ones, are some.of the funniest stuff ever created. The phone call between Vader and Palpatine when the death star gets blown up is so good "What the hell is an aluminum falcon?!" 😂😂😂

We didn't need to patch the plot hole for why there's a hole, the hole was absolutely necessary to get rid of all the exhaust produced by a moon sized spaceship

I remember the old robot chicken gag about the hole, being 1, a torpedo doesn’t curve at a sudden 90 degree angle.

Old canon: Design oversight, it was to vent heat. It was resolved in the Death Star II by having hundreds of smaller exhaust ports across the entire station. New canon: Deliberate weakness. I like both. Both work out very well.

It was an exhaust port, like a tail pipe. It was basically a miracle Luke pulled it off.

Snake: You intentionally designed it with a weakness? Otacon: I like to think of it as a character flaw.

Disney would NEVER let them do this. George was chill man 😎

"I thought my Dark Lord of the Sith could protect a small thermal exhaust port that's only 2 meters wide. THAT THING WASN'T EVEN FULLY PAID OFF YET!!!" -Palpatine, 0 ABY

I prefer the Dorkly video explanation. It’s an exhaust port, for a moon-sized ship. An it’s the size of a womp rat. Think about what that it. And it had a 90 degree turn at the end. This torpedo turns 90 degrees, goes straight down not touching the walls, all the while being pushed OUTWARDS by the exhaust, because that’s what exhaust is.
