hellraiser7 I'm a Star Wars fan, and in a strange way it seems that parodying Star Wars has taken on a life of it's own, it's just such an easy and timeless property for parody because just like the movie franchise the jokes just never get old. This web series is another in that long line but it's one of the really good ones.What makes this work is that it not just parodies on Star Wars but in a way it acts as a series on it's own due to the fact that the story does develop, and you almost care about what happens with the characters. What goes on around them and the nature of their situations is absurd but they act casual about it which makes it all the more funny. This series is amateur production, it's low budget but they use it well and I really don't see how this could of worked on an even bigger budget anyway. I like the use of location they used a real grocery store, so at times they had to film in the late night when it was closed even though it looked like it was day. The effects and action is decent. So is the acting which is good/decent. But it's really the dialog in the film that is very good, some of it is more than just puns on "Star Wars" but some of what they originally say is great. I really like the characters and the absurd nature of them, mostly Chad whom isn't Darth Vader he has some of the same characteristics but he's his own person. He's a tyrannical wannabe, he is smart but at the same times he's not. And yet he is still able to do his job well despite causing some mischief intentionally or unintentionally. My favorite moments are whenever he is using to force on people but it doesn't always work out very well. His sidekick Wexler is funny and at times a show stealer, he's naive and kinda an idiot but is loyal to Chad and believes in the same things as him. Chet is the villain of this show, he's a fun villain he just a butt head that just like Chad is a tyrannical wannabe only differences are he wants to abuse that power and he's just a butt head. And as the series progresses it gets stranger and better, like in season 4 the highlight was the inclusion of the Stormtroopers which was just comic gold.In a way this series is a love letter to the fans of "Star Wars" and to the character Darth Vader himself, in a way there was always that attraction to his villainy from his actions, look and his voice, he was a force to be reckoned with and fascinated with. This series might not be for everyone so if your a fan of "Star Wars" or sci-fi in general then this comedy will appeal to you. The force is strong with this series. Rating: 3 and a half stars
mikeisitt This well made internet comedy shot all in a grocery store is about Darth's younger brother, Chad, Chad Vader. Chad is the day shift manager of the store, and he takes his job very seriously, and even though he freaks out customers and drives away sales, the general manager, who Chad calls 'master', still accepts him.But Chad's position may be in jeopardy as his nemesis, Clint, who is the night shift manager, fights to steal his job any means necessary.And now Chad has to keep his job or be demoted to the night shift, where people go insane over only a few days.This hilarious comedy, originally from the internet was made by two ordinary people, and is a great example of internet comedy.7/10. Watch and enjoy!
MartinHafer This is the first of eight films in a life and death struggle involving Darth Vader's lesser-known brother, Chad. While there really is no life or death struggle, practically everything seems that way to the dim-witted Chad. While looking like Darth Vader (complete with the full costume), he is a bit of a loser and works at a grocery store as a night manager. His wanting to once again become day manager takes on epic proportions and is so utterly silly and overdone, it's a laugh riot. I love watching him try (not very successfully) to use the Force on others as well as all his silly and pointless machinations--all with the typical Darth Vader flair.Well made despite its low budget (after all, it's a small independent production). For what it is, it has decent props, acting and direction, and its an amateur film that manages to rise above the heap. However, to enjoy it to the max, don't just see this episode but the entire series.
I_Am_The_Taylrus SPOILERSThis is probably the best Star Wars parody ever. I actually think that this is a little bit better than Ryan Vs. Dorkman One and Two. This is hilarious. Almost every episode is hilarious beyond words. Episode Five is probably the worst. My favorite is Episode Seven. Episode Eight is coming up. Still, I am here to talk about the first one. This is the one that started it all. This is one of the funniest things ever to hit the world of Star Wars. Every joke is done right, and the characters are well-made.Here is the plot of Chad Vader. Chad Vader is Darth Vader's younger brother who works at a grocery store called Empire Mart. He is the day shift manager. He can not control his powers very well. There is also Clint, who is the night shift manager who wants to be the day shift manager. He also has a grudge against Chad. Chad is not very well with customers and tries to win over the heart of Clarissa, whom he likes. Then in the end of this episode Chad and Clint attempt to fight but Chad slips while Clint walks away.Overall, this is a great series and I hope for many, many more episodes to come in the future. Matt Sloan and Aaron Yonda are geniuses. They created Chad Vader, by the way. I kind of wish the episodes were longer, though. I mean, roughly five minutes each? Come on, there could be much more jokes and humor if it were ten minutes long. Anyway, this is a great series that I hope will become more famous than it is right now.10/10 Recommended Titles: Star Wars, Ryan Vs. Dorkman.
