    Star wars kid sues...

    A Canadian teenager has launched legal action against classmates who put a video of him online, saying that the publicity has left him mentally scarred.

    In my honest opinion they are well funny, and so do many people who watch them think they are, although hes gone through alot he shouldnt sue them it was only a joke.

    My favourites have to be "Terminator 3" and "Every Jedi Has A Semi-Retarded Clone" last one being the best .

    I do think the edited version take the p*** more than the others and would humiliate him more but you still got to admit they are pretty funny lol.

    I never said they werent funny - its just a pretty awful thing to do to somebody! I always thought he put the video on himself so i had my fair share of 'lols' but its very very harsh!
    Leaving somebody metally scared is horrible!

    I liked the Matrix one best

    I always thought he put them on there himself thats why i thought he was a silly bugger, but not long ago i found out his mates did it and i do agree with you. So many people who have seen this and make fun of him, must leave him mentally scared and i feel sorry for him.

    But then again it was down to him making it, i mean who in their right mind would make a video like that and not burn it?

    lol he's become a living legend he should thank them. I did a star wars vid a couple of years ago which can be found here, you'll need the divx codec to view it, I'm the one on the right. Thankfully I don't have that awful hairdo anymore
