Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Chewbacca against Gwyneth Paltrow
Review: Belle parodie,de la part de ces étudiants, de ce film culte qu'est STAR WARS.On peut tout particulièrement féliciter l'interprète du futur Chewbacca qui mériterait aussi bien l'Oscar pour ce film que Gwyneth Paltrow pour SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: As Good As It Gets (without Jack Nicholson)
Review: What most people don't see at first is how well Nussbaum captured the opening sequence from SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE and meddled it seemlessly with more STAR WARS riffs than a Pepsi commercial.

I've seen enough BAD shorts in my time to know when someone really, truly puts in the effort to make something special. Well executed and well directed, I'm sure Joe will have fun with any movie endeavor he takes on in the future.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Homogenized and Uninformed SW Parody
Review: Aside from the photography and the use of wipes and dissolves straight outta the Trilogy, this seems to be a parody created by people who just don't know Star Wars that well. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing, heck, it probably plays to armchair SW fans much better this way. It is just a bad thing in my opinion. Aside from the concept, which is undeniably strong, this is a cute but weak entry to go alongside classics like Saving Ryan's Privates and the much-funnier Turner and Hooch 2000. ....

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Han Solo character steals the show!
Review: Very clever spoof of George Lucas, his movies and his many attributes. Very subtle references to many of his movies and performed in a very witty manner. Those who need this short film explained to them are clearly not a fan of Mr. Lucas' films. The creater, director and stars of this short film are just moments away from "making it big".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a must see
Review: This is one of the most original and creative spoofs I have ever seen. Who would have thought that Lucas was inspired in such wacky ways? All true Star Wars fans should own their own copy of this film. All true Shakespeare in Love fans should own one too, for that matter. I am looking forward to seeing more from these guys!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is *great*!
Review: This is a must see for every twenty/thirty-something who grew up playing Star Wars in their friend's basement!

It cleverly explains the origins of all your favorite characters - The Best, Yoda was!

Lucas directed the first Star Wars film and handed off the second two to others. After Episode I's start, I'd love to see Mr. Nussbaum take on 2 & 3. His attention to detail, consistancy, and directing make him an ideal candidate.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Masterful: The saga begins for director Nussbaum
Review: Independent Short films are not supposed to be this good, but an artistic and talented director can take a non-studio group of actors and a superb crew (editing, producing, and scoring in particular) and create something truly incredible. The story-weaving is amazing, and feels like a true post-modernist film rather than your basic satire. If I were a movie exec, I'd be after Mr. Nussbaum in a second for a feature project! I look forward to his studio directing debut. (Maybe Lucas will let him direct the next Star Wars movie - Nussbaum would probably do a better job!)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This one hits the mark
Review: As with any short-subject work, you need to get right to the point in a hurry, without losing the viewer. This leaves the viewer laughing, and eager to watch again and again. This will certainly join my video collection. The best!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It was Ok.
Review: I just saw this video it's a little shorter than 9 minutes and it was ok it was funny but not like people say excellent, a masterpiece, let's give it a bunch of awards it's not like that it's just a funny short movie inspired in the writing of Star Wars IV that's all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: only 8 minutes but ........
Review: Note that this video is only 8 minutes long, but it's absolutely worth it for SW fans. It's much funnier than "Hardware Wars."
