![]() A Stormtrooper gets it even worse, prompting the "South Park" police to lock up the directors to prevent such travesties from happening again. Indeed, each scene builds upon the other, with Spielberg and Lucas eventually becoming two rednecks in the woods who demand Indy "squeal like a pig" as the pair humiliates and degrades a cinematic icon.
