Star Wars Detours: Delayed Trailer


Star Wars Detours: Delayed Trailer
You won't be seeing this anytime soon, because Disney is postponing this parody movie. Lucjust asfilm set the release date for March 11, and that has come and gone. It should also be noted that Disney hasn't set an alt-date either. Something tells me that they'll just drop it.
Seth (Joker) Green was involved with this project, and probably because of his Robot Chicken involvement. While it seems to be set during the post Prequel universe, it is one of causalities of the Disney restructuring of the SW expanded universe.
I actually like some of the stuff in this trailer. I love some of the Prequel bashing in the trailer. The kicker is that Lucasfilm has made all the Detours videos private on their channel, as if they want nothing to do with it anymore. Mashable.com has a great story on the “shoving aside” all the prequel material of late.
Yes, the Prequels were trouble, but the side portions that sprung from those movies have been rather good. It is a shame to see them abandoning it.  Did I mention they were planning another season of Clone Wars before they got the ax?
Don't get me wrong.  I love some of the things Disney has done over the years.  They gave Marvel focus on unifying their movie universe and they let Square do some amazing things with Kingdom Hearts.  But, I'd reconsider some of the decisions with SW of late.
