Lego Star Wars: Droid Tales

This is by far one of the worst takes on anything i have seen in my life. It starts out as fast paced slap-stick comedy, that completely degrades the biggest Point of no returns in the movie, and continuous to mock everything that makes Star Wars beloved and epic. Pointless punchline after punchline, the filmmakers shows us how little they trust their material, and we soon see why. No old feeling from the original series is left and the characterization is the worst i have ever seen. If not for the Classic look of the characters you wouldn't be able to recognize them at all. Stay clear of this stink bomb, as it surely will ruin your love and affection for the entire Star Wars series. Shame on you...

Yeah, it makes fun of the original trilogy, but it's a Lego show, you can't watch it waiting epic things. If you want to watch a Lego show, is because you want to laugh.

The jokes are incredibly creative, just as the visual appart.

When I started in the Star Wars movies, I thought I wouldn't like to watch Lego movies or shows, but I was so wrong, they're awesome!

Not as funny as the others Lego Star Wars TV movies, a more classical humour than what Lego movies/video-games used to contain, but it is still entertaining.

It's mostly a show dedicated to kids, but lot of private jokes are made for the adults Star Wars fans (explanation of why Chewie didn't get a medal at the end of episode IV, jokes about the quality of the prequel...).

And it's a good idea to watch this "Droid Tales" before discovering the new episode VII because it's basically a big summary of episodes I to VI (and even a part of "The Clone Wars" and "Star Wars Rebels"). But that's kinda a problem too, because it's TOO similar to what you saw in the movies. They didn't try to make new crazy stuff with the stories (just the minimum).

I've heard that there are better "LEGO Star Wars" shows, but at the time of writing this review I haven't seen any others. What I saw I liked, and I'll certainly watch the other LEGO shows now that I've seen this. It's a joy to hear Anthony Daniels reprise his role as C-3PO for such a modest production, and the voice acting is consistently well-timed, which is important when trying to make people laugh. Some of the jokes, especially in the final episodes, were a little too childish to be appreciated by older viewers. Many of them, though, were very witty observations which often poked fun at the not-quite-praised aspects of the films. Die-hard fans tend to take things a little seriously; you wouldn't believe the number of vitriolic arguments I've read over "Star Wars"! It's good to reflect on the sillier side of things, and "Droid Tales" offers a very good opportunity to do so.
