Brief synopsis of Robot Chicken - Star Wars

You too can join the dark side with Robot Chicken: Star Wars!

[adult swim] have turned the Star Wars universe on its head and given the legendary struggle between intergalactic good vs. evil a unique make-over in this extended episode which is jam-packed with unforgettable moments parodying all 6 films.

Robot Chicken: Star Wars boasts an all-star voice cast including Star Wars creator himself, George Lucas plus Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, Family Guy's Seth MacFarlane, Breckin Meyer, Donald Faison, Hulk Hogan and James Van Der Beek.

The story begins not long ago, in a galaxy not far enough away where we see Emperor Palpatine receive a reverse charge call from the Dark Lord announcing the destruction of the Death Star, watch the droids have trouble getting through airport security and see Admiral Akbar selling out in an advert for his own breakfast cereal. If that wasn't enough to wet your appetite, George Lucas gets saved from a mob of nerds at a Star Wars convention, Luke and the Emperor settle things with a 'yo mama' fight and there's even a new unforgettable addition to the Star Wars franchise with 'Empire on Ice'...and that's just a snippet of the 35 sketches featured!

Rated - 3 starsA bit short

Be warned that the main feature on this disc, the Robot Chicken Star Wars special is only just over 20 minutes long. It is funny, but the rest of the running time is made up of other Adult Swim shows and some minor extras.

The main feature is OK but not that funny. Its the sort of thing you might watch on youtube but its not worth paying to watch it. The other features on the disc are utter crap

Rated - 3 starsToo Short

I've been a long time fan of Robot Chicken and this special episode is great! The trouble is it is way too short. I understand that stop-motion animation takes a long time to do, but I was really disappointed.

I made the silly descision of purchasing this title. I was tempted by the 'over 2.5 hours of extra content'. It turned out that hardly any of this was worth watching. The 'deleted scenes' were pencilled sketches with sound over the top. I was expecting actual animation like in the episodes. I felt they were a real let down.

I strongly recommend this to any starwars fan. However, I advise you rent this rather than buy or you will feel you did not get your money's worth. I personally would not pay anything more than £4 for something this short.
