How do you like your Robot Chicken?

Sunday night (6/17/07) On Cartoon Network's Adult Swim (I know, Turner Broadcasting says its a different network....hummm, well I can sign up for the Cartoon Network but I can't sign up for Adult Swim on my cable...its on the same time, same channel, far as I am concerned, same damn thing! so sue me) we will all be treated to a unique Father's Day special. Thanks to Seth Green and crew of Robot Chicken we will be blasted by all things Star Wars. As all of you know that follow Robot Chicken, Star Wars is a particular favorite whipping horse for the Robot Chicken crew. It all comes to a head starting at 10pm Sunday when at the top of ever hour until 6am the following day, when the new Robot Chicken -Star Wars special will air and at the bottom of each hour, Green and co-producer Senreich will air their favorite episodes. The Star Wars episode is an all new production that will have Mark "Luke Skywalker" and George Lucas playing parts.

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?"
