The 18 Days of a Star Wars Christmas Miracle +7: Day 21



Since I celebrated the Ewoks cartoon yesterday, it's only fair that I celebrate the other cartoon series that made 1984-85 great- Star Wars: Droids! 


   Though Ewoks lasted a couple of years longer- Droids was clearly the better show. It featured C-3PO and R2-D2 as they travelled the universe looking for new masters but always ending up discovering trouble. 

   Anthony Daniels supplied the voice to Threepio as he did in the films. Though I doubt Kenny Baker was the doing the beeps and boops of Artoo.

   One thing that made the show so awesome was that stormtroopers, TIE fighters, and a certain bounty hunter from the Empire Strikes Back made appearances on the show. Another aspect was that it featured the writing styles of one Paul Dini- the genius behind Batman: The Animated Series and creator of Harley Quinn.

  My advent gift for you today is one of those amazing episodes written by Dini.

   Enjoy...

The 18 Days of a Star Wars Christmas Miracle +7: Day 10



   I wonder if Wampas bounce?

   There have been tons of Star Wars parodies in the past 4 decades. From mash-ups with Elvis to the Family Guy TV-show's take on the original trilogy, the ways to make a little fun at the ways of the Force seems endless.

   My advent present today is by far on of the worst Star Wars parodies or all-time. From September 1977, I present to you the Donny & Marie Star Wars Special! 

   I'm sorry I don't have a receipt so you can return this but hey, this clip is only 12 minutes long. So, the suffering isn't endless. Guest-starring C-3PO, R2-D2, Darth Vader, and a score of dancing stormtroopers, this is one of those things it's so bad, it's good. 

   You just have to see for yourself...

   Enjoy...

The 18 Days of a Star Wars Christmas Miracle +7: Day 6






The Christmas Parade- in many towns it's what officially begins the holiday season. Heck, many consider the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade to be the beginning of shopping season when Santa comes to town. 

   And who doesn't love a parade? 

  My advent gift for you today is a clip from the Disney Christmas Parade which now includes it's very one Imperial garrison. 

   Enjoy...
