Lego Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Out was broadcast last week. I’m a bit surprised there was no thread on it. It wasn’t as funny as the Padawan Menace, but it still wasn’t half bad.
I liked the following exchange between Threepio and Han Solo, after Han shoots a Stormtrooper:
Threepio: You just shot that guy in cold blood!
Han: Well, yeah. It was him or me. What else am I going to do?
Threepio: There’s been some debate…
I’ve also had “I am… Awesome. I’m so… AWESOME!” going through my head for the last week. Good think it makes me chuckle.

If you told me in 2005 I’d be watching and loving a long running CGI animated show based on the prequel trilogy I’d say you were insane, so I guess crazier things have happened, maybe I should check this out.

The Lego Star Wars special have been hilarious. The first one, The Padawan Menace had me (and the boys) laughing constantly throughout - even on repeat viewings.
The Empire Strikes Out had several laugh out loud moments, and I smiled constantly, but isn’t baring up on repeat viewing as well. It’s just not as densely packed with laffs as the first.you
