Hotstreak's criticism of a Star Wars prequel.

I was just watching episode "She-Bang" and noticed:

Villain Hotstreak is going on a rampage in front of a movie theater, setting the marquee on fire where there is poster that says, Space Battles Episode 9, and has a guy who looks like Annakin holding a woman that looks like Amidala next to a creature that looks like a green version of JarJarBinks.

Hotstreak is yelling, "It's wrong, It's all wrong!!!" and Static asks him why he is doing this. He replies, "The Movie stinks! I give two thumbs down!" and then shoots off more fireballs.

When Static tells him he can't wreck things just because he doesn't like it Hotstreak's eyes go open wide in surprise, "Have you seen it?...Somebody has got to send a message!!!"

I also think about the episode where bang babies are being captured and held on an island. Static and Hotstreak are handcuffed together and flying on Static's disc through a forest and being chased by their captors the same way Luke and Leia are chased on Endor by the Stormtroopers in "The Return of the Jedi". As they fly, we hear "The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme)" playing in the background.

Batman beyond also poked fun at Lucas

No point trying to show mercy to the stupid, they wouldn't know what to do with it anyway
