When I do my Star Wars parody, Userpedia Wars, should I do a parody of the original episodes of IV, V, and VI, or the prequels of I, II, and III?

I voted for Originals first. But I actually don't mind the prequels. If you manage to complete the originals. Then you can start on the Prequels if you want to afterwards.

Silly Toad.

Parodies are different from rip-offs. For example, calling Eragon (I'm not actually doing this, just using an example) a rip off of Lord of the Rings would be to say that Eragon steals many of its ideas from LotR. A parody is purposefully designed to copy a work not to steal its good points but rather to make fun of the bad.

Other than that, lol.

What does that actually mean? Why does not one simply parody Star Wars?

It's a meme based off Boromir's line in Fellowship of the Ring.

Yes understood, but why can't I just parody star wars?

Because one does not simply parody Star Wars

I think it was just a joke, but then again, Star Wars has been parodied in so many ways that it has an entire Wikipedia template devoted to its parodies alone, so.

Quick update: If there's a tie, I will do both.
