Darth Vader Canteen Incident

I love Eddie Izzard, he's so funny. This is the same clip plus him minus the lego: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJ2yRTRlMFU

I heard he doesn't dress as a woman anymore, which I think is too bad because it kinda suited him very well. I'd love to see him live sometimes... I missed his recent amsterdam show.

That was too funny! The canteen attendant stalked his petty tyrant well and gave everyone a good laugh to boot! osit.
 
:lol2: That one gets my every time! I've always loved his Cake or Death bit too - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAOLOGGftTY&feature=related - He seemed to have a great take on history. :cool:

Same here! The Darth Vader sketch is one of the things that has made me laugh the most in the history of ever! :lol: Like, bellyache laughter. Cake or Death is a classic too!

Awesome. :lol: Very nicely done by the animator!

While we're on Izzard, this is my personal favorite, the languages bit - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hJQsvoY6VU
 
Thanks, I didn't know Eddie Izzard, I was just looking for Darth Vader videos on YouTube for the kids (who are big fans of DV :lol:) and came upon this excellent lego animation.
Here's another one with legos and Izzard's voice:

Thanks for sharing Lúthien. Absolutely hilarious. :rotfl:

And talking about Darth Vader, I just realised that we don't have a Star Wars topic on the Movies board!

Oh no, you had to go there, didja? :lol:
 
Hmm. I could be because I'm really tired, but I didn't like these sketches at all! The lego one was OK, I suppose, but all the others didn't make me laugh at all. I found most of the jokes silly, and I hate it when comedians have to curse to sound cool. If you can't tell a joke without cursing, then you are not a god comedian, IMHO. And what's up with his makeup and clothes? Is that his style, or is it supposed to be funny?

I don't know. I must have a weird sense of humor if you all liked it that much... :rolleyes: But I promise, I DO have a sense of humor, though! :D

I started watching the first few seconds and couldn't stand it anymore. Well... I'm very tired. Perhaps I'll recover my sense of humor tomorrow ;)

Well, that's not my style neither. :(

I prefer George Carlin. :D
 
Eddie's a lot funnier when you can see his facial expressions/smile ( this leggo stuff is really weak, imo ). I think he's really funny and quite smart, actually. I just saw his new 'Live at Wembely' DVD (well, late 2009) and he's definitely still dressing in drag. His Wembley performance wasn't his strongest, he seemed wound up a little too tightly, but some of his earlier stand up routines I've seen on DVD were very, very funny and very intelligent. Just my take... :)

I really love the whole canteen bit, but not with Legos. It loses the beauty of Eddie's expressions. Hubby and I have several of his stand up shows on dvd, and when we have a bad week, watching him helps put things in perspective. :D

My other favorite routine? "Do you have a flag?" :lol: :lol:
