The funny bit is that I didn't have to do a thing to the Groucho image; the lighting was perfect.

[FRANK]
Knowing Dad as I do
I'd not advise you
To displease him
Or tease him
No, no!
Don't double-cross him
Or toss him
Around
When dear old Dad
Once gets mad
He's a hound

(Chorus)
[WAGSTAFF]
My son is right
I'm quick to fight
I'm from a fighting clan
When I'm abused
Or badly used
I always get my man
No matter if he's in Peru, Paducah, or Japan
I go ahead
Alive or dead
I always get my man
I soon disposed
Of all of those
Who put me on the pan
Like Shakespeare said to Nathan Hale
"I always get my man."

The Farce is strong with this one.

That's one way to light his cigar...

That's the forgotten Marx Brother, Zippo.

Yeah, he only made this one appearance.

I will note that this has been earworming me since you posted the lyrics an hour ago. :)

Of course, I'm now imagining Harpo as an Imperial Stormtrooper.

*HONK*

"Now, that's a light!" As Groucho would say.

Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar.

Sounds like a Freudian slip to me.

That's culotte to think about.

"I killed a sith lord in my pajamas...how he got in my pajamas I don't know !

You win the comments, at least so far.

So, what color saber?

Black and white, of course, silly boy!

. . . You know what I mean!

Fine. Paisley. Happy now?

I dig it.

What would Grouch Marx do with a magic cut-anything wand? The Marxes were always humour, not combat.
(Imagines Chico trying to order batteries by talking with a store floor manager)

Light cigars and give hotfoots, most likely.

Happo storm trooper:"What's the password?"

Groucho Jedi Knight: "Is it password?"

HST: "No."

GJK: "Is it please?"

HST: "No, but you're quite polite, I give you a hint, it's a gungans name."

GJK:"A gungan's name, Boss Nass?"

HST:"No but that's a good one, Look I cannot let you into the deathstar until you say Jar Jar"

GJK: "I got it....Is it Jar Jar?"

HST: "Yeah it is" *opens the door to let GJK in only to be locked out"

HST: "Wait a minute" *knocks on the death star's door"

GJK: "What's the password?"

HST: "That'sa Easy, Jar Jar."

GJK: "No We changed it It was too stupid."

HST: "Well what is the password?"

GJK: "You know....I don't remember, I better go out with you and think about it." *leaves the death star as it blows up*

Perfect.

Most assuredly a Marx Brothers routine.

"If you're for the Dark Side...I'm against it!"

Snarkiest Jedi ever...

Say the secret woid and the midichlorian comes down and gives you fifty credits!

you did a good job Marm...

V.

Thankee! :)

He always gets his man...

This new information suddenly changes the context of all the Star Wars films ...........

The Farce will be with you, always.

Funnily enough, it was a discussion about context change that brought about this pic. The simile given was "if Groucho went from 'That's the most ridiculous thing I ever hoid' to 'Use the Force, Luke'..."

And thus I was inspired. Groucho in academic robes was the closest thing that came to mind for Jedi gear, and the rest is history...

I see Chico as a Han Solo fast talking type ("Thatsa my Millenium Falcon...fastest hunka junk in the galaxy") and Harpo as Chewbacca with a bike horn.

That works for me. And Zeppo as Jar Jar.

Margaret Dumont as C-3P0.

Oooo! I LIKE that.

And Billy Barty as R2-D2...

Somewhere, I've got an 8-track tape of An Evening With Groucho, featuring Marvin Hamlisch. Also a copy of The Groucho Files--interesting shot with Phyllis Diller btw.

I also have "The Groucho Philes" in my collection. :D

You're quite welcome! Always glad to help cheer someone up!
