Here is the link. http://www.theforce.net/l...rs_III_Update_123086.asp I looked all over this board and couldn't find if there was a post on it or not. So I made a new topic. Enjoy. My wife enjoyed the first Star Wars Robot Chicken. I need the second one on DVD.

I really enjoyed the first Robot Chicken SW and have seen it at least a dozen times at this point - unlike the stiff and mostly unfunny Family Guy attempt to do a SW show - Robot Chicken nailed not only the feel and characters of the saga but also made a lot of truly funny skits as well. Not too long ago I watched the second attempt of Robot Chicken to parody SW, and while not terrible by any means - it's most certainly not as good as the original. Let's just say it's like comparing the classic trilogy the the "new" one... 'Nuff said

Here is the link. http://www.theforce.net/l...rs_III_Update_123086.asp I hadn't even heard there was going to be a third installment. Thanks. I liked the second one about as much as the first one. I'm a Family Guy fan, but there was no comparison. Robot Chicken skits pack in so many jokes that are memorable that I would say these are the best parodies I've seen.

I posted this back in 2007 and we never followed up on it: Arguably, Robot Chicken deserves its own thread here, but I saw part of a skit this morning that's not included in the SW Special. It might be a ComicCon parody, as it was definitely at a convention and had Star Wars and Star Trek fans fighting, SuperHeroes fans joining in, and the cloning of Leonard Nimoy. If anyone happens to find this on YouTube, please post a link. Funny that I mentioned the cloning of Nimoy, in light of this year's Star Trek movie.

Posts: 3367 Thu, Jul 15, 2010 3:46 AM Administrator Orlando System President Orlando	from The Hollywood Reporter: Adult Swim's beloved "Robot Chicken" is readying a third Star Wars spoof, this time with C3PO voice talent Anthony Daniels joining the cast along with, naturally, Zac Efron. "Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode III" will riff on all aspects of the George Lucas' universe and will debut Dec. 12. The previous specials, you'll recall, were nominated for a slew of Emmy nominations. "We're telling more of a linear story this time that covers the series from start to finish," said co-creator Seth Green. In addition to Daniels and Efron, "Community" co-star Donald Glover and "Cleveland Show" co-creator Mike Henry will make their debut "Robot Chicken" appearances. In addition, Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian) and Ahmed Best (Jar Jar Binks) will return. "We wanted to take the Star Wars universe and see if through the eyes of our Robot Chicken: Star Wars Emperor Palpatine, Darth Vader, Boba Fett and Gary the Stormtrooper," said co-creator Matthew Senreich. "We'll still flip around the universe but we'll get a unique perspective from the bad guy side, from people who just want to rule the universe." The special is written by series head writers/executive producers Douglas Goldstein and Tom Root, series scribes Mike Fasolo, Zeb Wells, Green, Senreich, frequent RC actor/writer Breckin Meyer, and Hugh Sterbakov with Matthew Beans, RC guest writers Davidson, Geoff Johns, Dan Milano and Kevin Shinick. -Campbell Evans SWGFA Co-Founder \|o\| Orlando System President \|o\| SWGFA Blog Editor \|o\| SWGFA Chrono Keeper on Facebook \|o\| on Twitter \|o\| Trading Post \|o\| Rebelscum Trade Feedback Help the SWGFA by buying through Amazon.
