Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe Ewokese words heard in this adventure translate into English as follows:
- Yehah = Goodbye
- Yubnub = Hooray
- Acha = All right
- Gunda = Good/Yummy
- Feech = Dang
- Lurdo = Loser
- Tyatee = Come
- Kush = Who/what
- Roda = Eat
- Chak = Yes
- Jeeks = That
- Den = No
- GoofsMace's effort to rescue his parents from the cage are pointless since the gaps are already big enough for them to fit through and the rope is in the cage to begin with.
- Alternate versionsComparing the original VHS release (which is presumably what originally aired on television) to the 2004 DVD release (a double feature with "Ewoks: Battle for Endor"), the following changes are noted:
- The on-screen title has changed from "The Ewok Adventure" to "Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure".
- The beginning credits have been retyped; they look virtually the same, but a comparison shows them to be smaller in font size.
- The end credits have been retyped as well. Not only are they much smaller in font size, but they run 1 1/2 minutes longer as many new credits were added (so many people were not credited in the VHS release).
- ConnectionsEdited into Willow (1988)
Featured review
A Star Wars spin-off for children. Well, Star Wars is for children as well. All right I know, Star Wars is very much enjoyable for adults. This movie isn't.
Everything is about the Ewoks here, those fuzzy little furballs from The Return of the Jedi. They are as cute as ever, even though the way their faces aren't moving is a bit creepy. On the positive side these Ewoks are the same ones we saw in The Return of the Jedi. They talk the same way they did there, by operating with such words as 'gunda' (good) or 'feech' (what seems to be an Ewokian cuss-word).
Of course there are also humans in the movie, 2 children, who are lost and are looking for their parents in the vast forests of the moon of Endor. The storyline covers the journey of a little girl and her brother to the hideout of a giant, who apparently holds their parents hostage, with the local Ewoks helping the children throughout their quest. No more, no less.
As I said, this movie is definitely for children. For adults it might be tedious to watch because of the lack of dialogues (everything is told by a narrator, for obvious reasons), and the overall silliness of the movie. And I mean tedious even to adults who are otherwise Star Wars fans/addicts. But for children it can be enjoyable. It's important to note that George Lucas wrote the story, so it's actually the creation of the father of the Star Wars universe and it's got a bit darker, grimmer sequel named The Battle for Endor.
