Customer Reviews

One for the kid in you
Reading through all these people bashing these movies has me shaking my head. Really what can you expect out of television movies about Ewoks? To criticize these movies as being too childish is like criticizing the smurfs for being blue.
These movies were made for kids and not the people like me who saw the original STAR WARS movies in the theater as a kid but are now in their 30s. Really though to be able to get two movies on DVD for about half the price of a tank of gas to me sounds like an okay deal. People really should lighten up and take into account the audience these TV movies were made for.
One bright spot in these movies are some quite ambitious special effects (for TV at least).

A double feature?
I have seen both of these movies a dozen times & I love them. Up until the Clone Wars cartoon, I refered to the Battle For Endor as the best non star wars star wars. I still enjoy them. I recommend getting them & enjoying them with the whole family. Putting them as a double feature is a great idea (is it too much to hope for commentaries or featurettes too?), but my only question is this... why no third one? It seems like a good idea & Cindel promised Wicket she'd return. I guess 20 years is a long time to wait for another one. Maybe if they let me write it... Anyway, great packaging & I can't wait for the 23rd. Wonderful movies!

Like it or not, here they come...
I can't bring myself to review this title based soley on whether or not I like Ewoks. If you don't, stay away and don't complain. If you do, you'll enjoy these classic 80s TV movies. As a kid, simply having a new story set in the STAR WARS universe was a big deal, and I remember enjoying these films. By today's standards they'll come off as pretty cheesy, with little of the great action sequences we've come to expect from the STAR WARS Trilogies. These movies will be perfect for kids or adults in their 20s in need of a little nostalgia. The production values were high at the time and result in two extremely kid-safe movies. It's hard to argue with the price tag, and if you've been dying to see Wilford Brimley do more than hock Quaker Oats, this is the double feature event you've been waiting for. Boys will like the first movie, girls will like the second, and many an adult will be irritated by both. I can't wait to see them again myself, but don't go into these movies expecting a STAR WARS experience because you won't get it. And I'm sorry, but in my humble opinion, a little more Wicket beats Carrie Fisher singing to the STAR WARS theme any day. I'm happy to have the Holiday Special floating around as a bootleg.
