Robot Chicken Star Wars is a collaboration by Adultswim, and quite a few of the makers of Family Guy, and the same humour comes through here. Each scene is animated using what looks like action figures, and its really cleverly done. This DVD feature presentation isn't as long as it could be, but it has some funny sketches, and some not so funny sketches. George Bush discovering that he is a Jedi was a highlight for me, as was the reverse call by Darth Vadar to Emporor Palpitine. Im not a particularly big fan of Robot Chicken or Adultswim, but my husband is so I bought this as a gift to him. I enjoyed it the first time, but for me its not a repeat watch. I would say if you are a fan of the usual Robot Chicken stuff then this is a good addition to your collection. George Lucas makes a cameo in it, so that's worth looking out for, as is the Jar Jar Binks and Darth Vader scene on the Death star.
The DVD has some good extras on it, which takes the DVD run time to 195 minutes. For example, you get 3 bonus Adultswim full bonus episodes which is pretty cool, as well as the usual behind - the - scenes, commentaries and trailers.

Advantages: Original, entertaining and funny (at times it's "laugh out loud" funny too) !!! Disadvantages: Way too short ... the extras on this DVD are actually longer than the main feature !!!
