Robot Chicken to do Star Wars


Now unless you live in a cave, you knew that Cartoon Network's Adult Swim juvenile delinquent child Robot Chicken did a parody of the latest Starwars outing. Seth Greene and crew really pounded on the bad boys of the Star Wars universe - having Darth Vader making a hysterical call to his boss the Emperor and the Emperor doing a very corporate character assignation. Oh the episode was funny beyond all reason and I was left thinking that George is going to take these jokers to court sooooooo bad. Well it aint working out that way. It seems Lucas Films wants the parody on their own site! Whats more, Lucas Films is going to let the maniacs at Robot Chicken do a "feature" length Robot Chicken Star Wars....staring believe it or not George himself and Mark H. as Luke! Seth Green and Matthew Senreich are actually working with LucasFilm Ltd. to create the 30-minute parody of the Star Wars series. Senreich says it's a dream come true and "How many people can say that George Lucas let them play with his entire Star Wars universe and do Robot Chicken-like things to it?"
