Let me just start out by saying that the Ewoks are the single most underrated cinematic creations of all time. I love those little dudes! I love these little movies, too. Though I haven't seen them for a good six years or more, I remember absolutely loving them when I was little. They always made me want to go climb a tree and pretend I was an Ewok! Honestly, WHO would not want to live in hundred-foot trees, leaping on vines and speaking in those funky voices?! Um, anyway, just to give you the idea how much I love Ewoks . . . . . . .

Plus, to all you Ewok-bashers out there, they were successful enough to star in not one, but TWO solo adventure movies. HA HA HA!!

There had been rumors of an eventual DVD release of these two films for years. (That fawlty announcement of a three-disc ultimate collector's edition was a doozy.) Now, it's official: Come November, Ewoks fans across the nation can rejoice!! Though not in any special edition format (which coud be expected from two 80s TV movies), just having these priceless gems on DVD will be enough."

Um, right. Long live the ewoks!

I just hope

...that they take place before the Endor Holocaust.

Originally Lucas was going to have the last battle on Kashyyyk (the Wookie homeworld) ... a marvelously titanic battle of 'primitive' Wookies tearing down the might of the Emperor's best legions through cunning and sheer force of will. Problem is -- thanks to Chewbacca, we know that Wookies are quite adept with technology, thankyouverymuch.

Ergo -- Lucas created Ewoks. Little teeensy furry cuuuuuuuuuuuute no-tech primitives that tore down the might of the Emperor's best legions through cunning and sheer force of will.

And ate them.

"Hey Leia ... try some of the stew. It's pretty good."

Trivia

This is a ueseless piece of trivia but what the hell. Did all you Ewok fans out there know that there is an actual Lake Ewok? Its a little man made lake on Skywalker Ranch.

Funny sidenote to that. I lifeguarded for LucasFilm's Fourth of July company picnic there a year ago. Yup, I lifeguarded Lake Ewok. Anyway I got a Skywalker Ranch hat for doing that and every now and then I wear it. Last time I wore it out to dinner the waiter asked me if I was a moisture farmer! I couldn't stop laughing for the rest of dinner.
