Summary: I AM STARWOID, HEAR ME ROAR
Review: ...The rapping D.J. Bobba Fett was my favorite, but then again, so was the trip that the toys took to their original locations.
My friend bought the VHS and it had a special introduction by the filmmaker that was great! I just bought the VHS too!IndieDVD has come through again and their teamng up with Film Threat is proof that they are to FILM what Punk Rock is to MUSIC.

Summary: I can't believe I bought this movie
Review: DO NOT BELIEVE THE REVIEWS!!! I BOUGHT THIS MOVIE STRICTLY OFF THE REVIEWS, AND I TRULY WISH I HAD NOT. I am a Star Wars nut. I now realize that I'm not a nut of watching Star Wars lunatics. I thought this would be an interesting glimpse into another aspect of the Star Wars realm, one that's not heavily documented elsewhere. However I was unbelievably disappointed to find out that this was nothing more than a documentary of several people in the months, weeks, and days ahead of Episode 1, with 90% of it devoted to the people waiting in line. If you think standing in line is boring, you should see how agonizing it is to watch people waiting in line, especially over a period of months. This movie has no spark, no inspiration, and no appeal whatsoever...and I'll watch anything Star Wars. This film was basically the equivalent of a news program, where they stand outside a movie theater and ask people as they're waiting or as they're leaving what they think. Don't buy this movie, don't rent this movie, don't even watch it at a friend's house. It's not even worth 5 minutes of your time, let alone the whole film.

Summary: Wish I was a fan way back when
Review: For those who were unable to participate in the mayhem that was generated by Episode One, you will be inspired to do so with this documentary.
A funny and smart film driven by fans, this ride will take you through Death Valley, to the Lucas Ranch, on a competitive toy run and then back to the lines forming at two theaters around Los Angeles. Fun stops along the way include, an interview with Uncle Owen, discussions with two homeless film critics, a priest, and scenes from "Star Wars the Musical".
Starwoids revives the term "documentary".
With loyality, it details creative activities that are produced by dedicated fans.

Summary: Great fan doc that will stand the test of time
Review: Holy cow, this movie is the most hilarious doc I've seen in years (And believe me, I see a lot of docs). It's almost like watching "Waiting For Guffman" or "Best In Show," but these people are not actors, they're all REAL! The best way to describe "Starwoids" is either a "Hands On A Hardbody" for geeks or a Star Wars version of "Survivor." These people standing in line for six weeks to see a movie are out of they're freaking mind, yet you have to give them credit for being so dedicated to a movie (The Phantom Menace) that didn't really live up to it's expectations (As a matter of fact, this movie had more heart and soul than "The Phantom Menace.") Some of the better moments: A musical Version of Star Wars with a singing, dancing Han Solo! A rapping/DJ in a Boba Fett outfit. A woman who designed her car like an X Wing. All weird, all funny, but most importantly entertaining. Very well executed, directed, and edited, "Starwoids" is definitely a great documentary find that will only get better with age. Like "Woodstock," it is cultural time capsule of pure Americana. Great flick!

Summary: Great movie, fan or no fan
Review: I don't even know much about Star Wars and I still thought it was one the funniest movies I've seen in years. The mere soap opera of the two lines was worth the viewing alone. What I thought was going to be another "Talking heads" doc, this movie actually has a comedic and dramatic structure that follws through to the very end. I'm sure this movie will ripe even better in age and become a Woodstock for the "Star Wars" generation. The commentary by the director was good as well. You can really tell a lot of heart (and talent) went into making this film and hats off to everyone involved.

Summary: Wow! This lived up the hype.
Review: I gotta hand it to the guy who put this together. Not only did he stay objective in the 42 days spent with these nuts, he made a film that is as much a kind tribute them as an expose on fanaticism. This film easily rivals "Trekkies". If you are a Star Wars fan, you have to get this!

Summary: Not Just For Star Wars Fans
Review: I loved this documentary, and so did my wife who's not a Star Wars fan. We were both cracking up at the scene with the Jawa who couldn't keep his eye on, and the raid on Skywalker Ranch. Super Genius was awesome. He's a Hip Hop/Breakbeat DJ that wears a Boba Fett costume (complete with a turntable on his back instead of a rocket pack). His short film (available as an extra on the DVD) is wonderful. Breakdancing Stormtroopers, brought to life through stop-motion animation. I want to get his Star Wars Breakbeats CD, that he mentions on the documentary. There's a nice piece on the Star Wars Musical, that was produced by high school students in Northern California. You get an interview with one of the original Jawas from Episode IV (A New Hope), and an interview from Phil Brown (Uncle Owen). Plus all the fun and drama of waiting in line for 42 days to see the most anticipated movie of all time. The commentary is also very informative, giving you more background on the filmmakers and the people in line. Extras include an interview with Kevin Smith, deleted scenes (including more from Star Wars the Musical, the Super Genius short film and other stuff). If you're a Star Wars fan you'll want this DVD. Even if you're not a Star Wars fan you'll still enjoy it.

Summary: Let the world know... Starwoids rules!
Review: I saw this film at the NoDance Film Festival and I would have to say that I not only laughed myself silly, but was intrigued with these people (or Starwoids, as the movie calls them) from beginning until end. The film takes almost a Utopian approach on how two groups not only stand in line for six weeks for a movie, but also how they learn to live, love, and deal with each other in a `Survivor' like fashion. One even starts their own form of government! The side stories about other Star Wars fans are priceless. Star Wars - The Musical and a DJ Boba Fett are worth the viewing alone! As soon as I saw it was coming to DVD, I snatched this sucker up! (...)You get all these extras that really cool. Even the commentary by the director is really good, when most of the DVD you get they're pretty boring conversations. Fan or no fan, this is a great movie and the best one on fandom I've ever seen. A laughfest with heart! Sit back, have a pizza some brew, and enjoy!
