Panel Overview

This panel previewed Robot Chicken: Star Wars before its June 2007 Adult Swim debut. The special brought Seth Green and Matt Senreich’s stop-motion sketch comedy format into direct contact with Star Wars, using toys and miniature sets to turn familiar scenes into rapid-fire gags. Celebration IV attendees saw material ahead of the broadcast and heard from the creative team about translating Star Wars characters, vehicles and famous scenes into the short-form Robot Chicken style. The preview was part of a broader Celebration IV pop-culture thread in which both Robot Chicken and Family Guy treated Star Wars as a shared comedic language that the audience knew well enough to follow even the smallest references.
