Sick Product of a Sick System

Did you people see the same film I saw?

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

"Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II" is the second of so far 3 Star Wars spoof specials from Seth Green's "Robot Chicken" series. It won an Emmy and several Annie awards the year it came out, which was one year after the first entry to the series. Apart from Seth Green, the cast includes several pretty famous names. Even Conan O'Brien and Carrie Fisher joined the cast after the success of the first film. For me it was nice to hear Abraham Benrubi who plays a crucial character in one of my favorite "Dark Angel" episodes. But back to this one: I thought there were a handful funny moments (like the one with the unicycle and clown shoes), but all in all it was just not enough quality comedy for over 20 minutes. Hardcore "Star Wars" fans can give this one a watch if they don't mind the weak animation. If they ever make a 4th, they really need to step things up in terms of the visual side. This did not get me the least interested in watching the third part or even the series. Not recommended.

More fast paced sketches with a longer running time. I was a bit more accustomed to the humour this time, making it a bit funnier than before. Best of all is hearing the original actors pop by for a few sketches, especially Ahmed Best as JarJar and Billy Dee Williams as Lando. Getting to see Bossk do some super cool bounty hunting was a highpoint. We also see some sea dragons hoping to find more than just sand on tatooine. Vader reenacts the destruction of Alderaan using a muffin to tease Leia. You must be a Star Wars fan to get these jokes as they are even more esoteric than the Family Guy spoofs. Clever, silly, and a lot of fun.

this second Parody of Star Wars is just as funny as the first one.the skits are again anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes and are just as random as in the firs.the follow no pattern.once again taking bits from all(or most)of the Star Wars episodes.some of them are just ass ridiculously absurd,so much so you can't help laughing.i laughed myself silly on a number of occasions.this special is also,if memory serves around the 25 minute mark,so again they jam a lot of material into the running time.even though it's short,i'd purchase it on DVD and watch it over and over again,as well as the first parody.for me,Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II is a 10/10

After watching the first Star Was parody thanks to the kindness of someone lending it to me, it wasn't long after laughing myself silly that I discovered that they had made a second one a few months ago. After this it took me very little time in trying to borrow the second one, which I did. The approach is the same as in the first Star Wars special as sequences from the film are reimagined and minor characters are taken on different threads. So we have an awkward dinner at Cloud City, the adventures of black probe Dr Ball and several other examples. The show moves very quickly with some of the sketches being blink and miss it quick and, with this approach it must be said that it tends towards being hit and miss.Fortunately it will have many more hits than misses for those fans of this style of humour and Star Wars and the quality is surprisingly high yet again. To me it was not quite as hilarious as the first special but it is hard to complain when there are still so many hits. It hurts itself by making it all look so easy as well but it is not. I had never imagined mice driving the little Death Star robots but this is in one of the sketches; I use it as an example as it is relevant, funny and creative and the special is full of such moments. The voices involved are impressive and it helps the comedy to have them involved doing their characters. It is silly and funny but viewers who like any modern comedy that lives on references will find much to enjoy here.
