Today, I fell madly in?love with Patton Oswalt. He has long been one of my favorite comedians, and his sincere and touching words following Monday’s bombing in Boston?had him on my mind.?Then, just a few hours ago, he?posted?a video outtake from his upcoming appearance on Parks and Recreation … and he made my life complete. It’s magic from start to finish.
In the video, Patton plays a character?attempting to block a city council vote by?filibuster, and he does so by outlining,?in remarkable detail, his vision for a Star Wars sequel.?It’s?eight-plus minutes of?perfect, fast-paced nerd-speak … part college lecturer, part complete lunatic … showcasing an insane, encyclopedic knowledge of Star Wars, Avengers, and X-Men.
George Lucas must have more dead horses on his Skywalker ranch than the stables after the Grand National.
