And I noticed one of the segment directors was "Mark Hamill" - coincidence? :)


Maybe not--Mark Hamill's been tinkering in comics, video games and animation for
a good while now.  You know he's the voice of the Joker in all the Batman
animation, and he made an appearance in the live-action movie "The Guyver",
based on the anime/comic book.  He was featured in the Wing Commander series of
games, and was the voice of Merlin in the Wing Commander Movie.  I saw him on a
talk show a few years ago, talking about a comic book he was working on as well.
If you've ever seen Super Monkey Robot Hyperforce Team Go (on ABC family
channel--usually paired up with Dragon Booster), he's the voice of the main
villan.

A quick scan on imdb:

I think he made a fortune on Star Wars, and does a lot of small jobs for fun and
the like.  I was involved in a promising animation project at one time (for a
major cable network), and it was mentioned to us that Mark Hamill loved reading
for animation, and usually got a preferred first crack at things like that.

(...) Same here, we liked it a lot. My kids especially liked the ending. We've already watched it 2-1/2 times (I love my Tivo). Good animation, fun concepts. It really seems to take off from the concepts of the LEGO Star Wars video game just (...) (19 years ago, 8-May-05, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.starwars)
