In 2009, Casey Pugh asked thousands of Internet users to remake “Star Wars: A New Hope” into a fan film, 15 seconds at a time. Contributors were allowed to recreate scenes from Star Wars however they wanted. Within just a few months, SWU grew into a wild success.

We at Studio 8 thought this was a fantastic idea, so Brock LaBorde, Java Marcheselli, and Eric W. Pierson picked a fun scene, shot it, and sent it in. Two years later, the people in charge of the project picked their favorite scenes and stitched them all together into one continuous re-made Star Wars film…and we just found out that our scene was chosen to be in the final cut!

If you skip to 30:55 in the video, you can see our scene, but I highly recommend just sitting back and watching the whole damn thing.

Thanks so much to the peeps at Star Wars Uncut for creating the project and letting us be a part of the finished product.

YouTuber MustangSally72 created a FANTASTIC little music video mashup poop thingy, using footage from “The Room” and “The Tommy Wi-Show: Episode 3.” If he added in clips from “The House That Drips Blood on Alex,” my brain would implode out of my butthole. If this song was on iTunes, it would be on my damn iPod.

Ever wanted to watch Tommy Wiseau watch some “My Little Pony” cartoons? Your long wait is over, thanks to YouTuber Vanacus, who created a fun video that shows you exactly that. It’s got a little too much “My Little Pony” action mixed into it, and Tommy seems to agree. But it’s still awesome.

YouTuber BradysYTP has begun re-cutting all of the Wi-Show episodes into his own weird re-imagined mini-masterpieces, the second of which is below. We love that he’s doing this and hope that he does them forever.

Somebody cut Tommy’s “Do a barrel roll” meme thingy into the original StarFox game. It works perfectly!

Did the Wi-Show inspire you to make something silly and awesome? EMAIL US @ THETOMMYWISHOW@GMAIL.COM and let us know what you did and perhaps we will feature it here or on the show!

We are so excited and fortunate to be working with Tommy and an amazing small crew of badasses, and we think that this show is different than anything else we’ve ever done and it’s probably different than anything anyone else has ever done – part talk show, part video game review show, and part retro sci-fi strangeness. The series premieres on Sunday, September 25, and will plop out new episodes every Sunday (and lots of bonus videos in between!).

This page will be constantly updated with cool info about the show, so bookmark it or something…

Here’s a teaser trailer for the show:
