Lego Star Wars: Droid Tales

Droid Tales is a five episode long mini cartoon series produced by the Disney channel with Lego figures.

This is a funny way to recap all the Star Wars movies to prepare yourself for The Force Awakens, as it takes up about 2 hours of your lifetime to watch them all.

Plot

While the celebrations still take place at the end of Return of the Jedi, R2 spots a mysterious figure and follows him, but this causes him to be seemingly kidnapped on a road trip thorugh the galaxy.  His loyal friend C-3PO follows him to free him, retelling along the way the various events that took place in the 6 movies of the saga.

It turns out the `captor` was actually Lando who tried to restart his mining operations with the help of R2-D2, but was misguided by general Veers.

Opinion

It`s hilarious.  Made in the sort of comical relief style we have gotten to know in the various Lego mini movies and video games (watch for the joke with dark grey and black bricks!) and various wordplay jokes, this series will pull out more then an occasional laugh from viewers both young and errrrrm not so young ;-)

And yes, it has Jar-Jar
