Trooper Clerks

Trooper Clerks is an American animated film that was nominated for the 2003 Official Star Wars Fan Film Awards, and won the animation category. It was made by Studio Creations.

Plot

According to the official web site, "Trooper Clerks is a parody mixing the characters from Kevin Smith's Clerks universe with the settings and characters in George Lucas's Star Wars universe. The end result is a hilarious yet foul-languaged multimedia experiment that has captured the hearts and minds of thousands of fans."[1]

Being told that their jobs are in peril due to cutbacks, Stormtroopers Dante and Randal embark on a quest to steal the Death Star plans by hiring the station's Sith duo in training, Darth Jay and Darth Bob.[2]

Darth Jay is portrayed as Darth Maul from Episode I (with the black stripes on his face forming a pot leaf) and, as told in the short film, Darth Bob is based on Darth Sidious (in fact, he is also called "Silent Palpatine").
