i liked it

 
 

thehappypoet5/12/08

makes you really appreciate the candor and balance of the actual movies. the actors here seemed caught up in the fanboy vision of star warsia but the cinematography was amazing. the action was really nice. the dialogue was pretty nice, and the end didn't kill it for me nearly as much as it made me laugh. nice job, good luck.

gingerblueboy2/11/08

I liked the Climax of that.

 
 

bkdurio2/10/08

Awesome!

 
 

tkerska300232/8/08

Great Work !

 
 

MasterMashUp1/2/08

Cool! The Jedi really should have used his lightsaber a lot earlier instead of doing all those backflips, but as soon as the sabers came out, it was gold all the way to the end! Great choreography, and great joke to end with! There is only do, LOL!

 
 

jbkernan12/26/07

Excellent fight. Please do something more serious.

 
 

elbarnett*****yahoo*****12/23/07

Surprisingly good action and a nice twist at the end. Who could have known that the Dew powered up the Jedi.

 
 

jyhan3312/20/07

Hilirious! Great martial arts and Lightsaber action. Funny ending.

 
 

jhall2711/23/07

Pros Really like the characters in this one and the chorography in the fight scenes is great. The computer graphics to begin with also would have taken alot to make. It also was a well shot piece. ConsFor me didnt really like the ending that the essence of the force is a can of drink almost like an advertisment but hey its a comedy.Overall a nice peice.

 
 

ApolloCDR10/26/07

Sweeeet!! Awesome job guys!

pomaussie10/5/07

Can't w8 for the next one by u, great piece of work.Loved the idea about the force springing from a drink, great stuff.

 
 

CtrlAltDeleteEfx9/9/07

Nice, I thought it would be lame, but I was oh-so wrong. Great job. =D

 
 

Pomcq9/6/07

Wow! that was great!

 
 

john1989er8/30/07

May The Dew Be With You!!!!!!!!!

 
 

Rinon4608/30/07

To think that the Jedi Order is actually just Pepsi-Co.

 
 

squirrleytonks8/28/07

nice...

 
 

zeaga8/23/07

this WHOLE time i was tricked to think the... um... "cooler" powered the force... lol great movie! nice pyro effects!

 
 

Funnelweb3168/18/07

Yes, very pretty and action packed. but what's with the greasy mullet hair dos? In all of space there are no barbers??

 
 

Goblinmoon8/9/07

Well I got where it was going early on, but didn't dimini***** in the least! Can very much tell it was done for fun and just to try and do something a little different! the 'Mewey Maul' character's make up was a bit weird, if you're going to call him Darth Maul's brother. Everything else was really nicely done, from costumes to effects!Would love to see you guys try a serious one!

 
 

kb5lkehunter8/7/07

I love the force

 
 

shon*****loc.gov8/4/07

OK, it would have been better minues the cheesy joke at the end, however, the action was superb and very well choreographed. Very good job!

 
 

1jedibabe8/4/07

Great choreography and costuming! Nice work, lots of fun. (Perhaps the naysayers are overthinking this just a tad?)

 
 

BASSASP7/30/07

This is so stupid. and the music *****s.

 
 

sarojz7/29/07

Great work!!!

 
 

hoffsparky7/22/07

enderofwars6/30/07

ending was unexpecting i loved the fight scences. But the face paint on the evil dude was ugly as f**k

 
 

dfowensby6/23/07

fettster306/8/07

luv it!

 
 

oncebound6/5/07

Great ended.... and the fight scenes were'nt bad either!

 
 

pinkbluedolphin286/5/07

I never expect a "dew" comercial, that was hilarious. The force push was awesome. Kind of a matrix spin, cool.

 
 

skywalker3326/5/07

BRILLIANT!!Man it was sick!!

 
 

Radstrike6/4/07

I loved it! The end was what made it really great; I never expected a "Dew" comercial. Haha. GREAT!

 
 

keanugamez5/31/07

it is ok but it still rocks

 
 

Hadoz5/29/07

Good action flick for Spike TV or something. The force push was awesome. The lightsabers look a little to short in the blade for my liking, and tubular not flat.Good punchline at the end i wasnt expecting lol

 
 

igreeny5/28/07

hahaha great show loved it all the way through end bit caught me off gaurd

 
 

SpringVacation!5/27/07

compared to the others it was deffinately lacking in diaglogue, but visually it was really good

 
 

Capt Kip Rogue5/25/07

Groovy.

 
 

Kythe135/23/07

Nice action. That's it.

 
 

Hazarath5/23/07

Bad punchline, next to no plot. Acting Mediocre. Too long for that joke.

 
 

timbatty5/22/07

Great spoof of the Mountain Dew commercials using the Star Wars motif. But even without that, this film is a great little piece of Jedi action candy. And I loved the haiduken/kamehamehah power of our hero. Somebody either likes DBZ or Street Fighter games.

 
 

Malachias5/21/07

Pretty good, didn't like the music all that much, and the storyline was a bit weak, but who cares? It's a lightsaber battle that degenerates into a cheesy TV ad.

 
 

RogerNK5/20/07

A loooooooooooooooooooooooooong way to go for that joke.

 
 

ishyo5/20/07

You guys need to work on your pacing. The film seems to be all about the slow-mos and standoffs rather than actual plot.

 
 

darthluminosity5/20/07

Overall pretty funny. Please do another one with no comedy and a better storyline and characters

 
 

brenmaguire5/19/07

Thumbs up but didn't like the end at all, the credits made me expect a comedy but the action pleasantly surprised me and that is why I think it was quite good overall but the the seemingly comic end took a lot away from the overall experience. I'd consider a reedit if I could without the "comedy" and you'd have an excellent action packed story

 
 

clash50005/19/07

nice until end..

 
 

futher5/19/07

wtf? magic elixer of jediness?You smoked too much crack while watching that ***** highland TV series

 
 

doggans5/18/07

This is a classic, although the original version on TFN is slightly better, if only because they didn't have to blur out the MD logo at the end.

 
 

katako395/18/07

me gusto, bien buena...

 
 

ballin6665/17/07

dang my mamma pull moves like that on me!

 
 

whatanidiot5/17/07

what the heck? it's supposed to say "do the dew"... my dad worked on this.

 
 

Akrazo5/17/07

You know nothing of the Force. This was a waste of your time. It was like Indiana Jones meets Star Wars...AND Dragon Ball Z. The only light in the force is LIGHTning and LIGHTsabers.

 
 

DarthTorso5/17/07

Better flips than I could do, but it's still 'The Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular' with lightsabers and acting worthy of stunt doubles. And was that supposed to be funny?

 
 

StevenisinNY5/17/07

It was a for sure thumbs up....until the ending....wow...that was wierd.

 
 

BlobbyB5/17/07

Great fighting. Dumb ending.

 
 

tsaralexander35/17/07

Very nicely made. Showed respect for the story but had fun with it as well. Jedi are very skilled in Tae Kwon Do huh? Excellent overall film.

 
 

Jedi Rebel5/16/07

Nice special effects! You must've spent at least an hour on Darth's makeup.

 
 

whiteknight895/15/07

Not bad, but cheesy ending. Great effects though. Thumbs up.

 
 

JediAlex5/15/07

This was really good; loved the ending! Awesome special effects as well.

 
 

defibrilmeister5/15/07

...You got me!!!,action packed and very good choreography...

 
 

gideonsword985/15/07

Alot of work put into this one. Very good job; great comical ending. One of the best fan films out there
