Review of LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace (2011) by Asif K — 04 Nov 2011
Hilarious, loving send-up of the Star Wars saga total in gorgeous CGI Lego blocks that tells the tale of Yoda, fresh from school field trip with a group of Padawan younglings when he senses a plot to steal the Republic's Secret Battle Plans.
As the increasingly exasperated Jedi master pursues the plans aided/hindered by a stowaway boy named "Ian," C3PO and R2D2 find themselves babysitting the younglings which somehow leads them all the way from Coruscant to the famous cantina on Tatooine.
Non-stop in-jokes and some hilarious cameos dominate the charming little tale, though it is funnier if you are familiar with the source material. The Lego Star Wars brand is one of the most endearing crossovers ever, and hopefully more short films like this will be on the horizon.
Awesome stuff!
