Robot Chicken: Star Wars
You've already seen this so you know how great it is. There are supposedly HOURS of extras on this DVD so please support this release and don't just rip, borrow, burn or steal it.
Star Wars + Robot Chicken = Hilarious fun July 23, 2008

Anyone who's watched Robot Chicken knows that creator Seth Green and his crew are big time Star Wars geeks, which makes this marriage of Star Wars and Robot Chicken all the more sensible. Robot Chicken: Star Wars is a half-hour special of shorts and skits that pay wonderful, hilarious homage to the phenomenon that is Star Wars, by poking fun at characters and memorable scenes from entire series. The visual gags and blink-and-you'll-miss-them moments are incredibly funny, and the voice talent assembled (including Green, Seth MacFarlane, Mark "Luke Skywalker" Hamil, Ahmed "Jar-Jar Binks" Best, Donald Faison, Hulk Hogan, Malcolm McDowell, Joey Fatone, Breckin Meyer, Conan O'Brien, James Van Der Beek, and even George Lucas himself in a hilarious bit) is great as well. There are some old bits from the previous two seasons of the series included here (such as President Dub-ya's lightsaber battle with Abe Lincoln) among the newly shot footage, with the only real downside of this special being that it ends. However, this DVD release is still worth picking up thanks to the assortment of extras included, which feature interviews, trailers, and discussions of how the whole thing came together. All in all, Robot Chicken: Star Wars is a sheer blast, and even if you're only a fan of one or the other, you'll surely enjoy this.
 What's the big deal? July 26, 2008

I was nine years old when Star Wars came out in 1977. I got the action figures, saw the movies dozens of times, all that stuff. I'm definitely a STAR WARS KID.
But the truth is, this Robot Chicken episode just isn't all that funny. I got way more enjoyment out of Family Guy - Blue Harvest, because it was a straight-up parody, not this disjointed rapid-fire collection of random sketches. I've always found Robot Chicken to be hit-and-miss, but I expected more from this highly-touted episode.
Now, if you find yourself among the folks who DID like it, you'll be thrilled by all the extras. Personally, I don't think this very average piece of work warrants so many bonus features.

Does this really need a review? If you're on this page, you probably already bought it.
For $10 the DVD is definately worth it! What it lacks in actual show time it makes up for with the extras. There are some great behind the scenes features that show just how much work they put into making the show and how incredibly crazy you'd have to be to do stop motion animation.
There's a couple of storyboarded deleted scenes and let's just say, for the most part, there's a reason they were deleted.
Another great thing is the Chicken Nuggets where you can watch the show and at some parts click on the icon that comes up to see a video commentary on what you're watching.
