Movie Info

A satirical, lo-fi tribute to sci-fi film series that captivated generations of movie lovers, Hardware Wars takes Star Wars fans on a farcical space adventure that will keep them in stitches. Desperate droids 4Q2 and Art Deco are fleeing the empire when their escape pod lands on a desert planet inhabited by Fluke Starbucker. When Art Deco displays a video recorded by Princess Ann Droid imploring Augie Ben Doggie to save her from the villainous Darph Nader, Starbucker seeks the help of the powerful Red Eye Knight and recruits Ham Salad and Chewchilla to help them take down the empire and save the princess.

Semi-classic send-up of "Star Wars," produced very cheaply, but that's its charm.

The classic first Star Wars spoof! If you love Star Wars, you'll want to get in on the hilarity of this essential spoof, and hopefully it's still on youtube for you to enjoy. It's so goofy and crazy, I love it.
