YMMV / Auralnauts Star Wars

Go To

Star Wars Saga

  • Awesome Music: The EDM playlist put together by Auralnauts is nothing short of awesome. A highlight is in Laser Moon Awakens, where Maths is synced up perfectly with Laser Moonnote  exploding.
  • Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: Probably deserves its own page as this is a web video channel full of them, particularly in relation to the musical numbers.
    • Yoda taking time to tell Duke about the massive techno dance party at Geonosis, then flashing back to it.
    • Creepio's utterly insane dream where he's an 80s B-movie hero, spliced with footage from the Holiday Special and his cereal commercial.
  • Crosses the Line Twice:
    • The whole "Life Day parade turned Christmas parade turned massacre" segment in Attack of the Phantom Past. Just when you think it's getting a bit too brutal and dark to be considered funny, Duke points out that he spotted Santa in the midst of the Chaos... Which is to say an AT-ST with the upper body of a CGI Santa superimposed on top of it. All to the cheery tunes of Here Comes Santa Claus playing in the background.
    • How Han's death in The Force Awakens is reimagined here. Rather than getting stabbed by Kylo Ren, Kylo Ren tries to rap without the assistance of his helmet at his father's insistence, and it turns out he's a Dreadful Musician. Han proceeds to keel over and die on the spot in complete and awkward silence.
  • Heartwarming Moments: Vader reuniting with his nephew Duke, talking him through a bad midichlorian trip and reassuring him that he's better off without his screw-up of a dad.
    • As well as saving him from the Singularity!Palpatine.
    • Creepio asks Duke to call him Friend Besto, Duke does this all the way through The Last Laser Master.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • "Revenge of Middle Management", released August 2014, ended with Obi-Wan selling his son Duke to a family on a desert planet, for drug money. Three years later, The Last Jedi revealed that Rey's parents sold her to a slaver on a desert planet, for drug money.
    • Creepio has always been a staple bit of creepiness in the Auralnauts Star Wars universe, so when the trailer for The Rise of Skywalker showed a brief shot of C-3PO with eerily glowing red eyes in a dark room immediately followed by a scene of what looks like the a new death star's beam being fired onto a planet, naturally they were quick to capitalize on that fact.
    • "Jedi Party," released March 2013, had Palpatine sarcastically say he would rather have Sand People babysit his kids than deal with the Jedi. As The Rise of Skywalker revealed, it turns out that Palpatine did have a kid, who grew up to be the father of Rey, who spent her entire childhood in a community living in the sand.
  • Moral Event Horizon: If Creepio didn't cross it with his Singularity Engine and slaughtering all the people of Tatooine, it was certainly crossed when he blew up Alderaan.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Creepio, from roboticizing the entire population of Tatooine via the Singularity Engine to getting revenge on Bail Organa wiping his memory by pressuring Far2 into uploading a virus into Laser Moon, which blows up Alderaan.
    Creepio: I hear Alderaan is beautiful this time of year... The most beautiful thing you've ever seen.
    • The "Midichlorify" sequence is quite nightmarish too.
    • Singularity!Palpatine from the Episode 6 also counts.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: "Jedi Party" in Attack of the Phantom Past is a Star Wars-ified version of Mortal Kombat. Albeit one that can't stop namedropping Jango Fett. And a few characters that aren't even from Star Wars. Including Raiden.
  • Tear Jerker: Death of the Regional Manager Darth Vader, after saving Duke from the Singularity!Palpatine. The fact, that he, over the course of entire second trilogy, was never a villain, and helped Duke several times, only adds more emotional impact.

Kylo Ren Official

  • Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: A Santa Claus waves "Hello!" in the background as Rey hands the lightsaber to Luke Skywalker as she meets him at the end of The Force Awakens in the "Kylo Ren Outtakes" video.
  • Ho Yay: Kylo Ren asking General Hux what kind of products he uses for his hair.
    Kylo Ren: Your hair. It's smooth, yet hard. Like a shell. Like a big, red shell.
    • Then he refers to Hux as his "bitch" in his review of The Last Jedi.
  • Ship Mates: In his review of The Rise of Skywalker teaser, he says he ships Finn and Poe together so he can hook up with Rey. Hypothetically.
    Kylo: And honestly, I'd prefer if these guys weren't in the same dating pool as me. Like what if we were into the same type of woman? Like say, hypothetically, a natural-born Force-user with a really pretty smile and long, silky brown hair. So yeah, that could lead to a lot of confusion and I think it'd just be a lot better if those two hooked up and stayed out of my way. Hypothetically.
