LEGO STAR WARS: The Empire Strikes Out is available now on DVD from Lucasfilm
Hold on to your bricks LEGO Star Wars fans! An all new animated adventure featuring your favourite Star Wars characters is now out on DVD!
Your favorite characters are back to save the galaxy in LEGO STAR WARS: The Empire Strikes Out. The heroes of the Rebel Alliance including heroic Luke Skywalker, swaggering Han Solo and steadfast Princess Leia have no time to celebrate their victory over the Empire as a new Imperial threat arises. But as Jeni-in-training Luke embarks on this next mission, he discovers that his celebrity status as a “Death-Star’Blower-Upper” can be double-edged lightsaber when he’s constantly mobbed by crazed fans. So much for secret missions! Meanwhile, Darth Vader and Darth Maul are locked in a hilarious “Sith-lin” rivalry as they compete for the Emperor’s approval. It’s an action-packed comic adventure that’s out of this world!
The Kids were really excited for this movie, they are still a little young for ‘real’ Star Wars movies, but they are familiar with many of the characters and own a few Star Wars LEGO sets. The DVD is 22 minutes long which was a little short, but an okay length for little kids. It was a fun, silly movie for the kids, but from an adult point of view, I found it just as enjoyable, if not more. Having been a child of the 80’s and already seen every Star Wars movie, I could understand and appreciate all of the parody humour! Hubster and I laughed our way through the whole thing! It was an unexpected treat! The DVD also comes with an exclusive Medal Ceremony Darth Vader LEGO figure.
My three year old walks around the house singing “I’m awesome, I’m awesome” now all the time!
ooh! That exclusive Darth Vader figure sounds awesome! We’ve seen the movie, and it’s pretty fun. There are definitely jokes in there for the adults in the crowd as well!
