Have you ever had a friend or child that was new to Star Wars but you didn’t want them to start with Episode 1: The Phantom Menace because those Stupid midichlorians or the computer generated comedy relief known as Jar-Jar Binks? Or, maybe you are worried that showing Episodes 4 – 6 first will give away the ending? Ever hear of the Machete Order?
Each month the Cinelinx staff will write a handful of articles covering a specified film-related topic. These articles will be notified by the Movielinx banner. Movielinx is an exploration and discussion of our personal connections with film. May (the) 4th is Star Wars day, and because of this we will honor Star Wars all month long. What do you love about Star Wars? How did the franchise influence you? Feel free to add your comments and reviews!
No, the Machete Order is not some cult following of the Danny Trejo or his films.

Darth Vader’s brother Chad Vader rules his empire, the local grocery store, with an iron fist.
Empire State of Mind
Darth Vader has the Empire on his mind. And he is going to sing about it.
Eddie Izzard – Death Star Canteen
There must have been a canteen on the death star. With lego people no?
Trooper Coffee Run
3 day journey across the death star…for coffee.
Darth Vader Rap
Vader lets everyone in the galaxy know what’s up.
Thumb Wars – The Phantom Cuticle

With that said, it doesn’t mean I have to like the film. I’m glad Lance Mora got to make Crime Sweepers, his 30-minute comedy short and I’m glad it has garnered him some festival booty. However, and I simply have to be perfectly honest, I really found little to enjoy in this film.
To be fair, let me explain… It was the final day of the CineVegas Film Festival 2009 and while hanging out in the food court of the Palms Casino before heading back to my hotel, a man stops me and hands me a burned DVD in a paper slip.
