Round about 2009, I found a small plush Ewok for sale at Disneyland and more or less sprinted to the cash register to buy it before anyone could stop me. (My friend tried, briefly.) I had wanted a stuffed Ewok since I was five, so much I named my stuffed koala Wicket and pretended REALLY HARD. Koala Wicket was part of my world before I saw the original Star Wars trilogy around age ten, and I have long since despaired of explaining my love of Ewoks to anyone. This video made me so happy. Yes, the budget was fourteen cents and the child actors are child actors. But I was five and I really wanted to run away to a giant forest and live in the trees with ferocious warrior teddy bears who somehow thought I was worth their time. Sometimes it's the simple things when you're five. Ewoks are great. I took my plushie on Space Mountain and he's my buddy to this day. The fandom hates them, so I never have to worry about someone trying to make them cool or edgy. They're just stabby teddy bears. Ewoks forever.

@blkcandywarez Empire and Jedi were thought up at more or less the same time, though Jedi went through some heavy script changes before production began. While Lucas didn't have those films thought up from the beginning like he often used to say he did, if you look at the early drafts of the original film's script, you'll see that the setting and basic plot elements for the prequels (The Jedi Order, the Sith, the Separatists, the Trade Federation, the Republic being corrupted from within) are actually there already in the opening crawl. And when he actually made them, the prequels were outlined as a trio from the beginning. Disney knew from the start that they were making three movies, but decided it was a fine idea to have no forethought or planning, even though that's precisely the secret to why the Marvel movies made them so much money. It's not the reason the sequel trilogy is bad, but it's an easy way a lot of the badness could have been prevented.

[@Belzuboss]

I loved ewok adventures as a kid. I remember my grandmother having it and willow. on recorded vhs tapes.

[@go_rilla262]

Haaaaa! That's how I saw it, Grandmothers can be awesome

[@andorrasrevenge1683]

Same here GM recited off tv! Watched it a million times!

[@sybau578]

Belzuboss "you are great" Willow was awesome!

[@chuckaule6292]

[@TheFishinDad]

Same! I now have all three on DVD:)

[@BrandinSteffensen]

We must have recorded these on vhs because my siblings and I watched this over and over again. We loved it as kids. It felt like it was made for us!

[@Evan-vc1ps]

I’ve seen the ewok adventures. I own the DVD. I used to be scared of it......

[@worrywirt]

Evan Roussy those ewoks are the stuff of nightmares *shudders*

[@Evan-vc1ps]

empty sky yeah, they are really creepy

[@OryxTheMadGod3]

Evan Roussy to be fair they did eat the stormtroopers

[@transcendantviewer]

Can't say I blame you. They're cannibalistic in the originals, and creepy as all hell. I'd sooner let a Jawa turn my TV into a Transformer than let an Ewok wander around my neighborhood.

[@johnamesjay]

Same, this was something I don't want to face when I was a kid

[@OneFluffyBun]

I consider both Ewok Films canon. *Even the Holiday Special.*

[@ravenwolf7379]

Showing my age by saying I saw both Ewok films in CINEMA, AND saw the Christmas Special on TV the day it hit Australian TV.

[@hughmiller6389]

Never knew they were release in theater, I saw them on TV. As for Christmas special, I saw it and after a while wasn't sure if I saw it or it was something my imagination created since I was unable to find proof that it existed, well not until KZbin.

[@theoldcannonfan1707]

I consider the expanded universe and whatever george lucas says is cannon is cannon to me! There are two catagories one is legends aka the old cannon and the next one is the current cannon aka disney's cannon.

[@greedokenobi3855]

What about Earth? The human family in this movie said they came from planet Earth...bloody freaking Earth...Compared to this the holiday special is amazing!

You’re right 3 years later they finally added it to Disney +

[@nathanbartlett2770]

I saw this movie as a kid loved it back than I'm sure it would age well

[@SEAL341]

Nope, they were terrible.

[@AugustHawk]

Same here. We loved it. The little girl was probably chosen to her likeness to Drew Barrymore who was popular because of the recent E.T. fame.

I believe they were originally in Jedi though?

[@ghiggs8389]

Clone Wars features them sometimes as well.

[@LCProductionCompany]

This came up in my recommended after Disney announced these coming to disney+

[@austinmcconnell]

Nice. Wonder if they'll re-edit them?

[@80Bucks]

@@austinmcconnell yeah like they edited the holiday special to only have the animation

[@kungfew8432]

I liked the first one as a kid, because as a kid in the 80s, the only thing you wanted more as a friend/pet after Ewoks was a mogui Gizmo from Gremlins!

[@mudlark4099]

This video annoyed me because I grew up with this Ewok stuff , I just accepted it as part of the universe.

[@m.a.9571]

still better than the holiday special

[@username9175]

[@jaleza1006]

lol wtf did i just type up

[@Wade_Fucking_Wilson]

Anything has more originality than the CRYlo ren awakens

[@Blashada]

everything is better than the holiday special, the only reason why some one might enjoy that is if its Christmas time and they are forced to be happy.

[@peterbyykkonen8901]

Both films are on Disney Plus now.

[@jerey2374]

thats the kind of old old treasures you dicover on the attic in an dusty box as a kid and watch it on an old TV with your grandpa. But its beautiful Its Starwars legends oldshool original Starwars these were the magical ideas of back then, very charming

[@fredsvenlin102]

Just have to ask... Is this canon?

[@TheOtherGygax]

Fred Svenlin Disney is strict on canon now. It's just the I-VI and everything Disney put out after buying Lucasfilm. Trust me, I say the Holiday Special is canon!!!

[@rafaelnieto9470]

dude, they played them on TV back in the 80s. I saw them as a kid. Where have you been?

[@brain_apostrophe_t]

Rafael Nieto Well I'm probably his core demographic and I was born in 1994, so there you go.

[@zaggrukk8644]

Rafael. . .ikr? I remember watching them. That's why I was surprised when I found both of them on dvd for under $5 at Wal-Mart about 6-7 years ago.(both movies are sold together, in one case btw)

[@e1123581321345589144]

well I was born in the 80s and I never heard of them. I don't think they ever aired since.

[@bayard0157]

Rafael Nieto Yeah I remember watching when I was a kid too. I thought they were good movies.

[@greymajickjedi]

Having rampaging sexual experiences with hordes of exotic, irresistible women. i am very much kidding

[@axelrivera3382]

The Boy Looks like Luke Skywalker.

[@namreh72]

Axel Lopez _ a broke down Luke Skywalker...lol

[@ddvalentine1048]

He's also a an a-hole. I loved the movies and the cartoons but he was mean to the Ewoks who were giving their lives to help them save their parents.

[@ltb1345]

Technically, the fantasy/witch stuff is canon in Star Wars. See the nightsisters of Dathomir.

[@mcstylistgaming]

LegoTurtle Brickfilms this movie is not canon

[@jim0032]

Catherine tt oh no, this was definitely the 80's

[@The_Cold_Slither]

Catherine tt 90's? Hahahaha!!!! Oh this is so 80's. little six and seven year old me was so excited for these two cheese fests. By the 90's the networks pretty much stopped doing stuff like this.

[@72Worker]

Let us not forget that the destruction of the second Death Star would in real life caused a massive death toll on the moon's surface. There would have been nothing left of the Ewok's if these movies had occurred after ROTJ.

[@christopherbeckford2147]

But given that at the end of ROTJ the alliance and Ewoks were seen partying in the forest, we can probably assume that Endor was just fine. ;)

[@KipKrusty]

I loved these as a kid. Thanks for the recap. We Gen X'ers remember these well, but they have been erased for the Millenial generation.

[@tac5897]

I saw these when I was a kid and I'm 20

[@D00dlebugInc]

Dawson Taylor 25 here. Looked them up ages ago

[@SammytheawesomeILikePotatoes]

Benjoman221 I saw These and I was 8 lol

[@AudieHolland]

I remember the advertising. It was named "The Great Ewok Adventure" (not Caravan of Courage) here in Holland. And since I have hated Eewoks since "Return of the Jedi," I never watched it. End of story.

[@mr_reborn]

They gained a major following of children throughout the eighties and nineties on VHS. They're wonderful movies. Pure bliss. Perfect childrens fairy tales.

[@bashkillszombies]

The lasers, faster than light travel without FTL capability, the giant super duper space gun's the size of a moon, and the bestiary of creepy critters aren't too far - it's the guys glasses for you? Duuuude. :P

[@OriginalPiMan]

BaSH PROMPT "faster than light travel without FTL capability" Wut?

[@Calvinosaur]

Unlike hyperspace travel, the Death Star's turbolaser, and exotic monstrous alien species, the glasses aren't setting-appropriate.

[@noahrodriguez293]

I watched one of these as a little kid. I remember feeling "this isn't very Star Wars-ish." I don't remember much beyond that though.

[@BusStopProductions.]

These, two films were released on Disney+ this week (April 2 2021)

[@AEX10]

I have them on DVD, yes seriously

[@Meltigger]

AEX10 me too!! Now my kids watch, and love, them both.

[@DCartfart]

Ohhhh I member

[@user-mt4zr5kp7h]

Don't forget the Ewoks! Used to come on right before droids!

[@BlazeTheGamer1]

These movies are fine. I'm a very hardcore Star Wars fan and it seems odd why they'd hide these movies. I can arguably say these movies are very good.

[@darrendavenport3334]

Maxx Krok then it should be good for you ....

[@krizan1]

Agreed but that's no bad thing. I watched them both recently and enjoyed them immensely. I'm 34 btw ! :)

[@centurionnicolaum8588]

They did not hide them they are still being sold but some people can not do an announce of research..

[@padself]

an announce? hahah don't you mean an ounce?

[@centurionnicolaum8588]

Spell check is a pain in the ass.

[@starwarsrebel2006]

Both movies are now available on Disney Plus. I just watched them both. I grew up with Star Wars and somehow never watched these two movies. According to your video, these were made for TV movies, but when I was watching the closing credits of the Battle for Endor, it said, "Dolby Stereo in selected theaters." Were these movies shows in theaters?

[@BatMaul]

He said in the video that they were theatrically released

[@ryannohr210]

Thanks for covering these movies! I actually remember watching the first one when it was airing on TV. I think it actually succeeded in investing me as a child into Star Wars. My father was a huge Star Wars fan, but I don’t remember the first time I saw the OT. These movies are a really weird core memory!

[@flatlad]

Lol my dad made me watch this when I was younger. Also it was in Spanish._.

[@albinocavewoman]

Luucckkkyyy!!

[@malvoliomaximillian2001]

God damn,i know we're all dicks when we were kids,but that aint how you punish a child

[@phantasm8180]

de hecho yo las vi en español

[@Evergreen0021]

Si. 3PO

[@NathanielMinx]

I used to watch these movies religiously when I was younger 😂

[@zaneelliot6963]

These two movies are better than ANYTHING Disney put out

[@SchlossRitter]

Some of that footage from the second movie reminded me of Willow. Could be coincidental, but the production time frame matches up afaik.

[@TimDavies3842]

I heard that the movie was sort of a test for Willow

[@samualiam9981]

Considering that both were Lucas productions i wouldn't be surprised if they were both shot at the same time in the same location.

[@brainstormpictures8343]

Apparently, they're allowing us to see them now. Because now they're on Disney+.

[@stephenrock-wc6xt]

I totally remember those two movies and yeah they were pretty sad for Star Wars!

[@unusabletmx]

Stephen Rock I was always scared of watching these movies. Only the Ewok adventures and the sequel of Ewok adventures

[@sunnex474]

in my opinion, Caravan of Courage is PURE Star Wars; world building, having characters with realistic motivations, having cute moments and entertaining moments, following a single narrative, and being a good movie not connected to the larger Star Wars narrative.

[@christopherlightning5245]

The Ewok movies are great, Lucasfilm doesn't try to hide them, they released them on dvd. The Starwars christmas special is a Star Wars movie they dont want you to see , The Ewok movies were really popular in the 80's I had a bunch of ewok toys that were made based off the movies and so did most of the kids I knew around my neighborhood. Look up the star wars christmas special, It is so bad it could be mistaken for a comedic parody.

[@nickgodfrey3514]

christopher lightning Can you still look it up though?! Won't Lucas, Disney/Lucasfilm have had all mention of it erased from Google?! ; P

[@Robpguitar21]

EBay remembers. In DVD form in fact...

[@457zim]

Lmao, I had them both on DVD when I was younger ... I'm certain plenty of other people had them too, so I mean, it's not like nobody has ever even seen or heard of them lol

[@UtopiaBlue68]

457zim I remember watching them when I was in primary school we all sat in the Assembly Hall and watched them together.

[@siixeyes]

457zim Yeah I have them. I watched them a lot and they were one of my favorite SW movies. I haven’t watched them in a couple years so I can’t recall a whole lot about it...

[@Scorpio_03_09]

I've seen them, I've watched them, and i mildly enjoyed them as a small child. My brother even reminded me of this a few years ago when we were discussing how many movies star wars had.

[@probot6515]

David Wilson wow. Just amazing

[@tracysmith5524]

I’ve only seen the second one, and the scene he showed with the hand sliding down the tree is what sparked my memory. But I have been searching for this movie for a LONG time.

[@WredFawks]

Sitting in the intro like "This is gonna be about the ewok adventures.... called it"

[@kathill6491]

The fact that he said that disney was trying to scrub and get rid of them....but these movies r on disney plus now???

[@darrenholcomb2104]

I remember these - and I feel like I'm watching 'Little House on the Prairie of Endor'.

[@niteshademusic5262]

lol

[@lucapeyrefitte6899]

haha I never watched thhe movie and I thought it was

[@nathanielmaciver2366]

LOL Yeah I felt the same way. Definitely have very fond, and very fuzzy memories of the first film. I always remembered there were Ewok movies but wondered why they never sat next to the trilogy movies in stores... now I know.

[@ExhumedFromBed]

I actually seen these films and remembered liking them. Not sure i would now, it's been years. You know i'm going to watch them for nostalgia sake.

[@viktorthecreator4458]

This is DEFINITELY a Rankin-Bass Cinematic Universe/Star Wars Cinematic Universe crossover and I am here for it.

[@Necron-ez2cc]

I'd rather watch the Ewok movies on continuous loop for infinity, than sit through anything that Dizz-knee crapped out once.
