User Reviews

Droids

Okay,this is good,nothing great though.You can get mushed version of 4 episodes,which I saw,and it was great! This was when C3 and R2 were not in the hands of Skywalker,and were on weird adventures.There was a pirate who had his own (cheap looking) TIE fighters.A *** star movie.
