Robot Chicken is a pretty funny show that ranks up there with Family Guy, South Park, The Simpsons and Spongebob Squarepants. This half-hour skit is all the segments from the show that deal with Star Wars, if you haven't already noticed, and it's pretty funny for what its worth.
There are plenty of segments to keep you chuckling and snorting. I can't even tell you my favorite skit because they're all pretty darn funny.
If you missed it on Cartoon Network, then check it out on "Youtube.com".

I've been hearing about this since it hit Cartoon Network last year and I just had to pre-order the DVD. I haven't laughed so hard in a while and I saw this right after I watched Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog, which I would also recommend. Seth Green and crew have really accomplished something amazing with this 23 minute compilation and I am thrilled to own it.
I haven't really watched Robot Chicken other than a few clips here and there before this but I just may start. I was very impressed with the animation, even if it isn't that hard pull off, which it looks like it is, it still looks amazing. This episode is awesome, especially if you are a Star Wars fan and understand what they are referencing. I probably wouldn't recommend if you aren't.

As others have said, it doesn't really matter if you have never watched Robot Chicken but it does matter if you have seen Star Wars at least once. Unlike the Family Guy special (which now doesn't look as funny), this parody is a series of sketches that range from a few seconds to a few minutes but never longer. The quality is very high and I laughed hard and frequently as I watched it. Whether it was the simplicity of C3PO trying to get through airport security or a reimagining of the Cantina scene from the point of view of a minor character, almost all of them hit the target. Some of the jokes stand out but all of them are good at very least there was only really one part of one sketch that I remember not getting, otherwise it had me in stitches.
The animation is superficially rough and I imagine that that is part of the charm of the series those used to it will not notice but those coming to it for the first time (like me) might take all of five seconds to get used to it mainly because the laughs kick in almost immediately and you don't notice anything after that. You certainly don't notice time because the special is over before it begins and leaves you wanting more. The voice work is good and the acting shows great comic timing and ability as they deliver the gags just right. Overall a wonderfully funny Star Wars parody that is done with knowledge and affection but also, more importantly, a great sense of humour and imagination.

This was fantastic, crazy, immature and joyfully stupid/joyously witty parody on all things Star Wars. What's great is that you don't need to be a Robot Chicken fan (though I'm sure it helps) or even have watched it very much to decide either way. If you like your parodies quick and skit-like and random and sometimes just dumb as hell, Robot Chicken: Star Wars is something of a minor masterpiece in the form. Seth Green's collage of classic bits from the movie redone, and then lampooned from all corners (there' "Dr. Ball" featuring the big black orb that tortured Princess Leia, there's Admiral Ackbar cereal, there's George W. Bush thinking he's a Jedi and pitting his "mind-trick" on a WMD question, there's even a running "gag" involving Jar-Jar becoming a "ghost" torturing Darth Vader). There's barely a moment when I didn't laugh out loud, or find something actually really funny and creative in its wit and, as a fan of the saga, obscure bits that only people who've seen the film 10 or 20 times would get (i.e. that blue guy playing the piano at Jabba's palace pushing an album wit songs like "I'm not an elephant!"), or just obvious gags that only come on late at night (i.e. Luke and Leia in bed, "This is so... wrong.")
Granted, it may take a certain sense of humor or just familiarity with the Star Wars films to get some of the gags- those who aren't keen on the prequels may not remember what midiclorians (sic) are let alone how the jokes lock in step in the show- but for those that get it, it's priceless. Only minor personal geek-type liability: no Yoda!

Ha ha ha! That was the greatest Star Wars skit I've ever seen. RObot Chicken's the best. My favorites are when Jar Jar recognizes Darth Vadar being Anakin once and thinks he still is. And to the brief skit where Luke and Leia were in bed. "That was SO wrong". ::they're going' to hell!:: And I loved how they used those alien girls to finally do some dirty dancing. I would love for Robot Chicken to do some anime spoofing. I could use the laugh on some anime if they do that on Robot Chicken. Robot Chicken's the best of doing some skits like those. Keep up the good work, Seth Green.
Anyways, a 10 out of 10. ^_^

There's REALLY no words to say here. I'm so glad I saw this, it's just so LOL-hilarious. I ain't NEVER saw nobody make fun of Star Wars this way! I just gotta get this on DVD somehow. The funniest skit was probably the second one with the Vader/Emperor phone call. The Emperor just LOST IT on this dude!!! The 'Yo Momma' fight was great! George Bush's whole skit even the one with his daughter Jenna was OFF-THE-HOOK!!!! The fact that George Lucas actually appears in a skit in here (with his ACTUAL VOICE) was a big plus. That was a cool skit as well.
Unbelievably funny! That's all.

I've never seen Robot Chicken, but it seems like a fast paced sketch comedy. They certainly go for quantity over quality, which probably works in its favor. The jokes are short and sweet, as is this this Star Wars special. I really liked action figure animation, which easily recreated the Star Wars world. There are some fantastic moments here, such as Jarjar and Vader meeting up, the Imperial officers pretending to die, and a janitor that always works on the bottom floor. Quick chuckles rather than belly laughs, it works due to its love of Star Wars, meaning the fun it pokes is always spot on but never cruel. A nice little watch. September 12,

Not by a lot though. Anyway, I saw this had come out on DVD Last Night so I decided to pick it up. I was kinda disappointed though by the length of the special (23 Min) but, being a huge fan of Robot Chicken and of Star Wars, I decided to give it a try...and boy was it good. It was a great blend of wit with their humor and the sheer amount of Star Wars references made it so easy to watch. Most of the jokes that were in there were hilarious and really added something to the special (The jokes that were not funny were just not funny not puke inducing like Meet The Spartans or anything like that).
I really enjoyed this as a long time fan of Star Wars (I cant help being born only in 1996 so I have been watching SW for only 6 years now but that is long to me). This is the best Robot Chicken thing they have ever made and I hope that the second one is just as good.
Overall, fans of Star Wars will LOVE this special, and so will fans of Robot Chicken. I rate this special 88%.

Like "Family Guy: Blue Harvest", this parody of everyones favorite trilogy is irreverent, satirical and lot's of fun to watch.
Seth Green, Breckin Meyer, Mike Fasolo, Matthew Senreich and the rest of the creative team do a fantastic job recreating some classic moments from the films, all with that unique "Robot Chicken" twist.
As a fan of the original Star Wars series - I can say, without a doubt, that these sketches do the movies justice (they sure made me laugh at loud!)...and it was over way too soon.
As a bonus, if you have the DVD, check out the Cartoon Network bumpers and spots that the cast and writers did to promote the series and the special...talk about funny. It's basically half an hour of a bunch of twenty-something guys playing with Star Wars toys and Nerf dart guns, just hanging out and having a ball...and getting paid for it!

I was waiting for episode for almost a week already,and when I sat down to watch it I was excited.The first half of the show was funny,not as funny as I thought it was going to be but it was funny.I don't know why but with about 12min left or so it started running out of gas and it almost made me forget the first 18min of the show.The last 12min, I probably laughed once.So take it for what its worth but I actually thought giving this episode 30min was a great idea guess I was wrong.
The only good thing that was good about last night is that it was a marathon,they gave reruns that still make me laugh so I could forget about this disappointment but of course after 2 episodes passed they gave the Star Wars episode again.

having never watched an episode of Robot chicken,i wasn't sure what to expect.but i was more than pleasantly surprised at this parody of star wars.it' done in quick random skits that range from a few seconds to a minute or two,one right after another.most of them are hilarious.some are absolutely absurd.the skits don't follow the order of the movies.there are bits thrown in from basically all(or most) the episodes.i laughed frequently and loudly throughout.i thought the the voice work was really good.this special is about 20 odd minutes on DVD,so they cram a lot of gags into it.this parody is funnier than the Family Guy parodies in my opinion.for me,Robot Chicken: Star Wars is a 10/10

30 minutes of lame Star Wars sketches from various episodes of Robot Chicken, padded with 7+ commentaries, 3 unrelated bonus episodes, and lots of black and white production photos with commentary that appeals to teens i guess.
