While i quite like the show this special falls kinda flat. There's not much point seeing it when you can just watch the film and make similar comments to your buddies. A lot of scenes were almost a straight retelling of the film with less focus on making something funny. with a source as widely known as star wars they could have really gone nuts with jokes and references. I guess as they pointed out Robot chicken beat them to the punch, and did a much better effort.

It actually would have been more entertaining if they'd grouped all the previously shown star wars clips throughout the series, except the fact that we've seen them all already i guess.

That said i did laugh hard at the cantina band and a few other lines.

In the end, it wasn't that great but i wasn't expecting great anyway so it killed some time for me.

a few select scenes actually looked much beeter than the film [read:2004 dvd] too.
