Meghan Trainor's "All About That Base" is a catchy tune, but did you know it's also an anthem for the Galactic Empire?
It totally is, thanks to Team Unicorn and the Nerdist, who have collaborated to create the Star Wars parody song "All About That Base: No Rebels." Featuring sexy Darth Vaders and dancing Astromech droids, the tune is a non-stop homage to everything Star Wars. The Emperor even makes an appearance. It also features Darth Vader's personal cheerleading squad? Maybe they make a special appearance in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens.
Many of the dance moves and choreography seen in the video come straight from Trainor's own music video, except now with a touch of Star Wars flair. With so many sexy Sith roaming around the Death Star, do the rebels really even stand a chance? All the Empire has to do is use this video as a recruitment tool and boys across the galaxy will be lining up to join without a second thought. Can you blame them? Definitely an improvement over regular old weezing Darth Vader. Below is the original Trainor video, for comparison.
The original is definitely more colorful and perky than this parody, but the Empire has always struggled to move away from their standard issue black and grays. It doesn't help that Stormtrooper armor is painfully stiff. The Empire isn't great at expressing themselves, okay? Unless blowing up entire planets counts as a form of expression. Then they are pretty good at it.
