Who Wants to Win an Actual Cease-and-Desist Letter From George Lucas?

Just when Star Wars ‘s inspiration and influence had me smiling again , along comes this more typical, souring George Lucas anecdote: Lucasfilm has issued a cease-and-desist letter to manufacturers of a mega-powerful laser being touted as a real-life lightsaber. And now it’s going for $350 at eBay. The letter, that is, not the lightsaber. Click through for photos.

EXCLUSIVE: Pixar Developing Cars Spinoff Planes

Cars may not have been Pixar’s biggest moneymaker when it was released in theaters, but the franchise has been a monster hit when it comes to merchandise, raking in several billion dollars in a relatively under-the-radar fashion.

We’ve introduced you before to Mike of Milwaukee, the internet critic that made something that could have been awful — a 10-part, 70-minute video series on the failings of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace — into something like a cathartic work of art. Naturally, it was only matter of time before Mike turned his knives on Attack of the Clones , and if you can skip past the unnecessary live-action interludes that allude to Mike’s propensity to chop up women (stick to what works, Mike!), it’s another keeper. Are we the only ones who picture Barth from You Can’t Do That On Television when listening to these? [via Hollywood Elsewhere ] All nine parts are after the jump:
