The kind of movie where, by the end, you're left with only one question: "What the hell did I just watch?" A ridiculous series of stories about a family of long-haired animals that only babble in a most annoying way, idiotic characters who suddenly start singing songs, tiny people with a truly boring dance, a poorly drawn animated adventure featuring Star Wars characters, and a truly unwatchable instructional video... featuring some guy... with one of those... things. No, honestly, I have no idea what that was about. I have no idea what the whole movie was about.
Out of curiosity, I checked out this strange project, which even George Lucas apparently isn't too happy about. I knew it wouldn't be exactly top-notch, but then again, I didn't expect this. You could actually gain more respect for Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones.
0.5 stars. Because I'm feeling generous.

What a mess! But that's precisely why it's funny to see.

I was talking about Star Wars with a colleague, and this one came up. I'd never heard of it before. He said if you want a laugh, you should watch it. We saw the entire thing on YouTube and, of course, immediately put it on. Admittedly, we only watched it for about half an hour and then fast-forwarded from scene to scene.
A pure cash grab, and the cast was unfortunately under contract and therefore obligated to participate. This is clearly evident because NO ONE was interested. What a monstrosity, starting with Chewbacca's family, who all look and move hilariously awful. That house is just a 70s studio living room, and the exterior shot is literally a painting. Not to mention that circus du soleil scene, reused footage from A New Hope, a cooking class, cropped music videos, an animated section, and so on.
You have to see it to believe it. We certainly had a good laugh at how absurdly bad this is.
