Ewok Adventures

In the mid-1980s, two Made-for-TV Movies based on the Star Wars franchise were created: The Ewok Adventure (1984), later retitled Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure,[[hottip:*:Not to be confused with [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caravan_of_Courage_

In 2004, the movies were released on a double-feature DVD under the title Star Wars Ewok Adventures.

Both movies contain examples of:

 * One Steve Limit: Averted; Mace Towani has the same name as Mace Windu from the prequels.

Caravan of Courage contains examples of:

 * Hitchhiker Heroes: The Ewoks join with Cindel and her brother Mace on their quest to find their parents.
 * My New Gift Is Lame: The boy is visibly unimpressed with the very plain rock he gets, while everyone else gets cool toys. After an unsuccessful attempt to trade it for something else, he throws it away. Unfortunately they kinda need it much later on...
 * Narrator: Burl Ives.
 * Parents in Distress

Ewoks: The Battle for Endor contains examples of:

 * Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: Barely 10 minutes into the film, Mace is killed, and so are both parents. Cindel is the only human protagonist from the first film to survive the second one. Considering how the goal of the first movie was to save the parents, it's a good example of a sequel making the previous work seem like a Shoot the Shaggy Dog.
