Disappointed (Rating: 2 out of 5) I've been looking forward to Ewoks the Animation to come to dvd just as long as I've waited for She-Ra, He-Man, etc. But it's not a box set, or Volume series. It's just a few episodes, enough to tease, then disapoint you. so if you think you'll be content with a few episodes go ahead. But if you're still waiting for the COMPLETE SERIES like me, keep holding on.
It Never Ends (Rating: 3 out of 5) These episodes keep going and going! I never did finish it because it seems like there are hundreds of episodes. The shows are good to watch once but do not have lasting appeal.
Recommended for Children Only (Rating: 4 out of 5) My 5 year old loves this DVD to the point that we have had it for a little over a week and he has already watched both sides numerous times (asks for it every night). The best way I can describe it is a Star Wars Carebear cartoon. A little less cutesy than the Carebears, but basically the same target age-group/level. However, the other C3P0/R2D2 cartoon DVD was not liked as much and he actually got bored of it fairly quickly.
Ewoks Rule! (Rating: 5 out of 5) My little guy got this for Christmas and loves the stories that come on this two sided DVD.
DVD is a major disappointment (Rating: 1 out of 5) In 2004, it was announced that, in addition to a DVD release of the original Star Wars films, we would be getting the Droids and Ewoks animated series on DVD. At that year's comic-con, when Steve Sansweet made the announcment, he simply said that both series would be released. Now, many of us fans automatically assumed that the COMPLETE series would be released. I have always enjoyed both series, so I was very much looking forward to season sets containing all 35 episodes of Ewoks, and all 15 episodes of Droids.
HOWEVER, it was announced, not long before their DVD release, that instead of the complete series, would would simply be getting a rehash of the 1996/1997 VHS releases, where 8 episodes from each series were edited together as two feature length films per series. Now, I have to admit, this format works OK. But that's not what most fans want. What I want to know is, who exactly made the decision to release these edited versions instead of what the fans REALLY want?
Hopefully, for the big 2007 ANH 30th anniversary, Lucasfilm will get their act together, and bring out a COMPLETE release of these two classic series on DVD (or Blu-Ray, etc.).
