May the Farce be with you

''Star Wars'' parodies hit the web, we help you find them

Mock the Great Trilogy? Sacrilege, you say! Still, hundreds of Star Wars-inspired humor sites infest the Web like so many fleas on a bantha. Here are some of the best.

The Bizarre World of Star Wars: Caught on Tape! (www.connecti.com/~gmclain/starwars/Video.html) A collection of stills from some of the kitschiest Star Wars-related video ever shot. Included are a 1977 Donny and Marie sketch featuring Kris Kristofferson as Han Solo, and the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special (1978), starring the movie's original cast. Carrie Fisher sings!

The Star Wars Pants Page (www.favorites.com/~bailey/pants.html) The rules are simple: ''Take Star Wars quotes and add the word pants.'' (Example: ''I find your lack of pants disturbing.'') Dada genius, or sophomoric drinking game? The line is ever so fine.

Evan's Star Wars Cinema (www.jedinet.com/cinema/) Watch riveting performances from an all-action-figure cast in animated shorts that blend Star Wars trivia with pop culture, Legos, and fart jokes. Highlights include ''Godzilla Versus Disco Lando'' and the affecting ''Kung Fu Kenobi's Big Adventure.''
