i.e. (and I do mean "eeeeeeeeeee!") LAUREN LOPEZ in Starship.
Starship is the fourth youtube released production of Team Starkid - the amazing drama group behind A Very Potter Musical and A Very Potter Sequel (and Me and My Dick - a show that is about exactly what the title suggests). Those shows are unbelievably good - hysterical parodies that (paraphrasing what some other reviewer said) are equal parts mocking and true homage from fans who really love the series.
Starkids also understand the power of the Zefron.
And Starship is no let down, which is good - I was a little worried it wouldn't have the parody aspect I love so much about AVPM and AVPS, but then imagine my shock, surprise, and unrestrained delight to find out they were parodying ALIENS to a large extent. And that my favorite leading lady-boy (she is undoubtedly the funniest version of Draco Malfoy you have ever seen) was playing my favorite bad-ass:
The whole show is really great, and I highly recommend it to anybody who appreciates silly songs, ridiculous humor (I'm not sure I truly understand Starkid's fascination with potty jokes (and I literally mean "Potty" jokes, not 'toilet humor'), but I'm cool with them considering everything else they do usually has me in hysterics), and a lot of heart. And Darren Criss (yay for starkids making it big time!) wrote some amazing songs - notably this one, in my opinion (start at 4:10 - holy shit, dumbledore can sing SO GOOD):
Anyway, go watch it. AND MAKE SURE YOU LAUGH when Joe Moses says "GAME OVER, MAN, GAME OVER!!!" I was so happy that line got in there - and so sad that the audience didn't seem to appreciate it. I got your back starkids, keep throwin' me adult-film references in seemingly children-aimed productions. Also.... the commander ("Up"), in a fun mix of references, is the "scarred bad-ass commander" from every military film you've ever seen - but he TOTALLY looks like Michael Biehn in the Abyss, which is just a great mix of James Cameron references for me.
