description: The Soddit, The McAtrix Derided, and the aptly titled The The parodies are hilarious, but the numbers are serious, with millions of copies sold. And now, in our very own time and galaxy, Star Wars finally gets its comeuppance-just in time to coincide with the release of the 6th and final film. The force is with us!This is a satire well and truly with the last chapters in the Star Wars ' saga reaching new lows, the movies that have dominated popular culture for more than three decades deserve a little tweaking. Oh, sure, a long time ago, in what seems like a galaxy far, far away, there was a very good and thoroughly entertaining SF film. But that's long gone. So here it comes, a six-part mock-epic that begins in the middle of the action, pits good against evil, and features hairy co-pilots, green gurus, bizarre hairdos, steel bras, and campy robots.In addition to his bestselling parodies, Adam Roberts has written a SF novel, Salt , which was nominated for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, as well as a number of academic works.
