I feel a disturbance in the force.
Variety reports that Lucasfilm Animation is developing a new animated Star Wars TV comedy series. Yes, you read correctly? a Star Wars comedy series. But really, are you surprised? If there is one thing George Lucas loves, it?s milking the Star Wars franchise for every golden drop.
I think this is the brain-child of Seth Green, known for the many STAR WARS parodies from his now-defunct ROBOT CHICKEN.
As Jar-Jar would say, “Mesa thinks ‘dis is bomb-bad.”
Still, where there’s a George, there’s a way.
NOOOOOOO
Is this some late April Fools joke? Please tell me it is.
I’m hoping for a restored Star Wars Holiday Special DVD.
Star Wars has been dead to me for over a decade. Now they are desecrating the corpse. Pathetic.
Really ? I thought CN’s The Clone Wars was a comedy …
“I find your lack of pants disturbing.”
(Cue laugh track)
Can?t wait to check out this train wreck.
Wasn’t Episode One a comedy?
No, Eddie. It was just a really bad joke.
I look forward to the ‘Fantastic Voyage’ homage episode where we get to meet the midichlorians.
@ Phil: I like Star Wars The Clone Wars.
If this was SOLELY Seth Green and Matt Senreich’s project, I would be ecstatic. Their Robot Chicken/Star Wars stuff has been brilliant. But the involvement of others has me less than enthused, especially when Green and Senreich have been relegated to “creative involvement”.
