(DAILY PLANET) — Turmoil has engulfed the United Nations. The taxation of trade routes to outlying countries is in dispute.
Hoping to resolve the matter with a blockade of deadly battleships, the greedy Trade Federation has stopped all shipping to many small countries.
While the General Assembly endlessly debates this alarming chain of events, Secretary General KOFI ANNAN secretly dispatches two Jedi Knights, guardians of peace and justice, to settle the conflict.
They fail, leading to unrest in the General Assembly. Several thousand small countries declare their intention to leave the United Nations.
This separatist movment, under the leadership of the mysterious MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD, has made it difficult for the limited number of Jedi Knights to maintain peace and order in the world.
Secretary of State CONDOLEEZZA RICE is returning to the General Assembly to vote on the critical issue of creating a GRAND ARMY OF THE UNITED NATIONS to assist the overwhelmed Jedi.
However, Kofi Annan, mired in "baseless" allegations, is removed from power following a vote of no-confidence and is replaced by the sinister BAN KI-MOON of South Korea, who is voted emergency powers to address the current crisis.
Promising to renounce his emergency powers as soon as the crisis is resolved, Secretary General Ban immediately deploys a clone army developed by disgraced South Korean scientist HWANG WOO-SUK and dispatches them to points all over the globe.
Secretary Ban promises to stun opposition into submission with shock and awe provided by Industrial Light and Magic.
Meanwhile, CONSPIRACY THEORISTS long suspicious of the United Nations begin making preparations at their hidden rebel bases.
AND THE SAGA CONTINUES . . .
Ah, so that’s where all the rest who were “a little short for a stormtrooper” ended up.
Um. I’m truly afraid.
Speaking of which, you should see the “holiday” card I got from the ranch. Maybe I should scan it in and put it on my blog, but they have the imperial symbol over a stained glass window (from the LF Ranch).
Wild.
Where in the world is Dark Helmet???
Fear not! We have engaged the contingent of menacing clones and are crushing them with our latest laser clone destructors…they are falling like parade dummies before our unrelenting onslaught…that wily curr Ki-Moon is next…on to victory!
Helmet: Oh no! They’ve jammed the radar. *tastes screen* with strawberry. I hate strawberry!
KWS,
It’s Raspberry.
“Raspberry. There’s only one man who would dare give me the raspberry: Lone Star!”
Jimmy,
It’s not Kofi Annon. It is now Ban Ki-Moon
Mr. Ban Ki-Moon was sworn in on 14 December 2006.
Helmet: What the hell am I looking at? When does this happen in the movie?
I’m sorry, I can’t hear or read the name Ban Ki-Moon without thinking immediately of Nanki-Poo, from The Mikado.
Isn’t Ban Ki-Moon the name of a feminine hygiene product???
“…GRAND ARMY OF THE UNITED NATIONS…”
Bwahaha!

Did you not read:

BAN KI-MOON
“That’s no Moon… that’s a space station!”
You fools! That’s not Ban-Ki-Moon…that’s his stunt double!
You fools! That’s not Ban-Ki-Moon…that’s his stunt double!
Isn’t Jared a stunt double? hmmmm…
Something is fishy here…
Of course Dark Helmet’s comment about strawberries comes later in the film when he and his cronies discover Yogurt’s hideout.
“Yogurt! I hate yogurt! Even with strawberries!”
“They must have hyper-jets on that thing!”
“And what’ve we got on this thing? A Cuisinart?”
And of course, the clone army is manufactured in Chinaosis.
Esau,
No, I did not.
Brian Day:
No biggee. God bless.
Ludicrous speed!!!
Oh #@$% Spaceballs, there goes the planet!
DoesAnyone sense a disturbance in the Force?
“I’ve got a bad feeling about this…”
“ancient religions and hokey weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side kid”
See . . . I always thought Condoleezza was secretly a Jedi Knight.
I mean, have you ever seen her & Barriss Offee in the same place together?
(Sorry, was that too geekey?)
“You call that a radar?!”
“No sir, we call it Mr. Coffee. Care for some?”
Jimmy, what’s your conclusion? Do you see any need in principle for a global forum to address global issues? I do, but not in the form of the United Nations. We need an organization that is founded in the principle of democracy and less influenced by the dictators of the world. See what you think of this:
