LEGO STAR WARS: THE FREEMAKER ADVENTURES Season 2 DVD Review and Giveaway

LEGO Star Wars The Freemaker Adventures Season 2 DVD COVER

I received a copy of the new DVD LEGO star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures for free to watch and review. I also have five additional copies to give away. Opinions are 100% my own.

When I first learned about the LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures I was excited. I had watched all the other LEGO Star Wars specials but those were based on the movies and told the stories from different perspectives in the humorous way that LEGO can. The Freemaker Adventures was also a show that would have the humor of LEGO and be set in the Star Wars Galaxy but these would be all new stories with new characters. The time in which these stories are set is during the beginning of the Rebellion from the original trilogy of movies. However, the story draws upon so many aspects of the Star Wars mythology. We spend time with many familiar faces between seasons 1 & 2 but in season 2 the Freemakers are now part of the Rebel fleet and are working directly with the rebels.

One funny part of this season was the introduction of M-OC an agent of the Emperor. The funny thing is that M.O.C. means something in the LEGO community and at the same time the spelling of M-OC makes it a droid designation. In the LEGO world M.O.C. stands for My Own Creation. Working with Brian on Built from Bricks I have learned a lot of LEGO lingo and I love how they put that into the Star Wars Universe. I also liked how there were some special LEGO sets made based on this series, the Arrowhead ship was particularly awesome but even the Freemaker’s ship was an impressive build.

The DVD has the complete season and final season plus it also has five bonus shorts.

Speaking of the number five. I have Five copies of the DVD to give away to anyone in the US who is interested in winning one. To win, just enter through the Rafflecopter widget right below. After that you can learn more about the DVD release.

Did You Seen A Wrinkle in Time This Weekend?

A Wrinkle in Time

A WRINKLE IN TIME has been released in theaters this weekend. We did not get a chance to see it yet, though. We received four passes to attend the movie while we were at Disney Social Media Moms Celebration. I also saw an extended preview of the film and I am looking forward to seeing the rest. I know I read the book years ago but I don’t remember it very well. I don’t think I’ll be able to re-read the book before we get to see the movie. Maybe seeing the movie will make me even more interested in reading this book again with the kids.

I have a clip from the movie to share with you. In this clip we are introduced to Reese Witherspoon’s character Mrs. Whatsit. Below that I also got some character posters to share with you.
