Summary: Please release on DVD!
Comment: I remember this first series of Ewok cartoons way back when I was in kindergarten in 1985 and I loved them. The series was smart and mythological with some serious themes interwoven throughout to make it worthwhile. Paul Dini, of Batman the animated series fame, even wrote and/or produced almost every episode. The Ewoks' spirit trees, the new characterizations of Wicket and his friends, the witch that always fought master Logray, and the Duloks made the first 13 episodes better than the two live-action Ewok movies at the time. They really delve into the culture of the Ewoks that combines elements of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and The Dark Chrystal. While the first season was slightly dark(but not too dark for kids) the second season was pretty poor in quality and reeeally cartoony to appeal to kids more. Even at the time it felt like it was insulting my intelligence. Anyway, I would love to see this first season released on DVD.
1. The Cries of the Trees
2. The Haunted Village
3. Rampage of the Phlogs
4. To Save Deej
5. The Traveling Jindas
6. The Tree of Light
7. The Curse of the Jindas
8. Land of the Gupins
9. Sunstar vs. Shadowstar
10. Wicket's Battle Wagon
11. The Three Lessons
12. Blue Harvest
13. Asha
It captures the fun spirit of Star Wars that the new movies lack, and it's great for kids and kids at heart.

Summary: Great for all you Star Wars Fans out Their
Comment: Star Wars all together is excellent and this specific cartoon series is a great way to spend family time together. It also is a way for the new generation to experience the vast Star Wars galaxy. I watched it as a kid and it what got me started on my way to become a great fan! The movie is very interesting becuase it shows those furry ewoks George Lucas created not as primitive life forms to be looked at like animals but as small creatures very much like us in the way they feel, think, and live. It expands on much of what Mr. Lucas created and it is a must for any fan.

Summary: Excellent for children +
Comment: This is a wonderful video for so many reasons. 1st of all, it's the closest fans can get to the magical cartoon of the mid-80's. Unfortunately, the whole series (both EWOK seasons) are not out on DVD...yet. 2nd of all, it's fun for the whole family. One of the more innocent cartoons, it stresses family & friend bonds while exploring the best planet of the STAR WARS series. Wicket & friends get into more escapades in this conglomeration of 4 original Ewok adventures than the 2 live-action films combined. It harkens many native legends as well as emphasizing the conflict for good & evil. It combines STAR WARS & hints of LORD OF THE RINGS. Also, the Duloks (evil cousins of the Ewoks) are some of the best characters ever developed for the immortal saga.
There is nothing not to like about this video, except that it does not use the original music from the series. The music made for it isn't half bad though. Enjoy it with your kids & let it take you back to 1985 & a sweet age of innocence.

Summary: SEnsational!
Comment: I love this movie. I literally watch this film 4 or 5 times a day! This is a special spinoff of the cheeky little characters from Return Of The Jedi. It will make you laugh and cry at the same time! I also got a little scared when the ewoks went into the haunted village.

Summary: Scary Magical Ewoks
Comment: This cartoon focuses on Ewoks and their magic. It is more fantasy than Sci Fi. I found the episodes which are strung together without separate titles hard to follow and a bit inane. I think Lucasfilm could do better in the Star Wars universe.
