New 'Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars' ad is a gas... and then some -- EXCLUSIVE VIDEO

In my household, the release of a new Lego videogame is a certifable entertainment event. And since my household is a Star Wars loving household, the release of a new Lego Star Wars videogame is a major entertainment event, one capable of eliciting a certain kind of involuntary physical response that is depicted in this new commercial for Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, inspired by the first two seasons of the hit animated series on Cartoon Network. The spot (which hits airwaves tomorrow) is part of LucasArts’ big marketing push for the game (which is due in stores March 22). I will say nothing more, lest I spoil its humor, except to say that it does answer a question I’ve long had about the functionality of stormtrooper/clonetrooper armor.

    That was cute, but Futurama already did that joke years ago. Not bad though.

      That was a robot though, not a clone. Big difference haha.

    I wish I had a Lego set that I could use to build Jeff’s long promised/long delayed final column on Lost. Anyone have that set?

    Aw, this was an incredibly nice post. Spending some time and actual effort to generate a very good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a whole lot and never manage to get nearly anything done.
