This is awesome and I am happy people are making it. The animation looks really good, and any of the parts with Obi-wan were just hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing the first time I watched it, and now it's making rounds with my friends.
Seriously people, stop being so serious. If you liked Robot Chicken's star wars parodies, then you have like, no reason to not give this a chance when the actual show comes out.
Oh, and also, I don't think this is aimed at younger kids. At least half of the jokes will only make sense to older fans who know the details of the universe, hence the parody aspect. The art style is just colorful and silly to go along with the style of humor.

I'll admit, I found a couple parts of that funny, even if the rest was overwhelmingly stupid.
But the only thing Star Wars that I managed to give a damn about since the original trilogy was Battlefront, so I really don't give a damn how much they want to fuck with the rest.

Ugh, I hate the animation style, but I find some of the humour funny. I stopped taking star wars seriously a long time ago (In a galaxy far, far away....)
I don't care that it's a parody, despite the fact that there have been millions of those through the last 30 years. I do care that the animation style is unappealing and, more importantly, the humor is awful. The thing that makes a comedy good? Being funny, which this is not. It's awkward and I really don't see the point of it being in the Star Wars universe. The characters are so generic that this could be set anywhere, so why there, except to make tired Star Wars references? But I'm judging just based on the trailer and clips, we'll see how bad it gets when the show airs...whenever that is.
That's because self-parody doesn't work all that often.Mimsofthedawg said:
In total this made me chuckle three times. Ackbar (yes, I know), the two Stormtroopers flying across the 'chasm' and Ben Forcing that laugh. But mostly it's just...meh, it tries too hard.
It essentially plays out like a more toned-down version of Robot Chicken Star Wars. It's funny enough for me to keep an eye on it, even if I probably won't watch it very much when it starts showing.
Please, it wasn't that bad. I actually liked it. I laughed a few times. I just don't see-
You are trolling, right? RIGHT?Gabanuka said:
Wow.... it manages to make the original trilogy pretty entertaining. /applaud
Yeah it smacks of the robot chicken/family guy spoofs, but I dunno... from the tiny bit seen It just seems funnier with more heart.
Though I did think it was odd to not notice (might have been there, simply didnt see it) an incarnation of Luke. I mean if you were going to ditch an original char I would have voted for Solo, which personally is the single most hated char in all of fiction.

Eh. This looks amusing enough. I don't really care. At the same time, I'm not surprised that everyone's overreacting- Star Wars nerds freak the fuck out over everything.
Either he or George are pulling our legs. This is obviously non-canon, some of it simply couldn't have happened.Gabanuka said:
Not interested, but won't act like it's the greatest crime humanity has yet committed, either; if you don't like it, don't watch it.
And for god's sake, stop talking about canon. Please try to at least consider how tragic it is that whether or not what "really" happened or didn't happen in a fictional setting legitimately bothers you. Please.

About the only bit I found funny was admiral Ackbar struggling to find the right way to say it's a trap.
It was kinda funny. I especially liked the bit where they pretty much described Queen Amadala's character. 
o god... there are only a few reactions appropriate
