    The best movie that you've never seen.

    This sequel to 1984's The Ewok Adventure is as good as the original. If you love Star Wars, you need to see these Ewok movies. These are the movies from my '80's childhood that I'll never forget. If you can't find these films to rent, try to buy them on eBay; they're great!

    A Childhood Classic

    First things first, both this movie and the "Ewok Adventure" were made for TV-movies. Therefore, to compare them to Star Wars is unfair due to the differences in budgets and people on board. That being said, I love this movie! Both The Battle For Endor and The Ewok Adventure were childhood favorites of mine. The story is still entertaining, albeit still on a child's level. But that's OK, because that's what these movies were meant for. George Lucas continues to show us again and again how to believe in fantasy and have fun. I recommend watching this movie with the whole family, and if you're into the Star Wars Universe like myself, you'll certainly get a kick out it.

    Despite some reviews, I think both the Battle For Endor and the Ewok Adventure are fun and well done (for TV) movies.

    A cute family story

    This story of an orphaned girl and the lovable teddy bear ewoks is no masterpiece by far, but still is a great family movie. I loved the ewok movies as a child, and I believe that generations of children will love it in the future. 7.4 out of 10.

    As bad as it is, it is the best of Star Wars TV offerings

    If you don't count behind the scenes programs and internet films like Dark Redemption featuring Myra Jade, this is the best of the Star Wars television offerings. Yes it is rough in some places, but it is an improvement over The Ewok Adventure and I give this one extra points for having the balls to kill that annoying older brother Eric Walker right at the top. I wonder what happened to the little kid Cindel. I though she was quite promising. I personally think aiming at children in film writing can water down the dramatic impact. The ewoks were the Jar-Jars of Return of the Jedi, a dramatic buffer between incidents in which we already had an emotional investment. The Mos Eisely Cantina would be a more lucrative setting for a TV series or set of TV movies.

    The adventure continues.

    Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. The adventure continues. One level up and not so irritable story about little Ewoks. Loved the cutie Teek. But it still feels more like a movie about magic and the Middle Ages than Star Wars.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Because Wilford Brimley did not get along with directors Jim Wheat and Ken Wheat, his scenes were directed by production designer Joe Johnston.
    • Goofs
      It is wrongly assumed when Noah and Cindel arrive at the castle, Noah dips his staff into the moat to show that it is made of some type of acid and the walking staff head is melted away. However, when they are running from the castle, Noah's staff is once again complete and the head is perfectly in place. Firstly, it's not his staff Noa shoves in the water; it's a branch with leaves clearly visible on it. Secondly, it's not acid that melts it; there is a creature in the moat that attacks it. The same creature tries to get Wicket minutes later when he is dangling with his feet in the moat.
    • Quotes

      Wicket: Good-bye not good.

    • Alternate versions
      In the home video release, the following scenes were deleted or altered:
      • When being chased by Terak's men, Wicket races for Noa's house but Noa tells him the only chance they've got is the star cruiser.
      • A scene taking place shortly after, where the men go inside and burn down Noa's house.
      • Cindel's lines: "Do something, Wicket! Use your sling! You hit the ring!" have been altered to "Do something, Wicket! Do something!"
