Oh, wait - goaste.cx. Damn you, boo_radley!

Yeah, well, I ain't clicking on goaste.cx or goatse.cx at work, that's for sure.

Nor I. Anyone?

It's OK. But the author can't spell dinosaur.

It's SFW.

It has a few funny moments.

Hah.
The original was pretty much begging to be taken the piss out of.

It's totally safe for work. Honest.

it was safe for work, funny for about three frames. one of those things that could have been briefer and had way more impact.

It's cute. And sometimes cute is enough.

The link is fine. This one is not.

I think Lucas totally ruined it when he added giant pixelated penguin eating the Death Star.

The new stuff is way too slick, and at the same time repetitive. I'd have liked to see less T. Rex and more Struthiomimus and Dimetrodon.

Could use some editing, however. For some reason, this one made me laugh out loud.

Guys, there's nothing remotely goatse about the site. Don't you think it would have been deleted if that were the case?

This is hilarious, Zippity Buddha. Thanks for getting this to the blue, boo.

I found that it got funnier as it went along. Like the scene in "Austin Powers" where he keeps pissing, stopping and then pissing again. It's a stupid joke, but it gets funnier because they just keep going with such an obviously stupid joke.

Editing would remove some of the genius, as GuyZero points out. My favorite may be: this one.

I can't believe Lucas would piss on the fans so blatantly by positioning Han's leg so high.

POKEY SHOT FIRST!

That site has been on here a few times and it's one of the funniest things I have seen on the whole interweb, but then I like stuff like this.

Adding the Presidential Motorcade to the sandperson shot made me crack up. It is repetetive, but hey so is the original site. And there are no dinosaurs on the original.

For some reason, I really like this one.

Oh man, this site has been cracking me up all day. This one is inspired.

ZippityBuddha... you are one strange, weird, odd person.

That was not an insult, just so you know.
