Even though i'm not a fan of the clone wars, i do admit that some of the episodes have been alright, but im more of a fan of the ones done by Genndy tarkatovsky's clone wars were much better, but if they are planning to do a couple of episodes with fett in it should be quite interesting to watch from the clip.

If they want to do a fantastic animated story around Fett they should do his track down and face off against Joda Kast. Another bounty hunter who finds Mandalorian armour and trades under the name of Boba-Fett to increase charges for his services. Read a short strip years back of it. And while brief it was a great idea that culminated in a great cat a mouse fight between the two on a remote planet. Bound to be better than this pap! Talk about wasting a great character.

I love The Clone Wars, it's great. Genndy Tartakovsky's Clone Wars was great, but they are very different kinds of programmes. People judging the new one on seeing odd clips or odd episodes are doing so from a position of ignorance, because the series is very cleverly pitched by being accessible enough to be enjoyed as a simple 'cartoon' whilst having interesting themes woven through the plots. There's also been a number of episodes that are basically Star Wars homages to classic movies or elem More

his is better. Occasionally they have 3 episodes that connect, the Ryloth trilogy being a great example. Trailer below:

Thats odd, I seem to be able to access them on Cartoon Network.
hey must get first showing on Sky Movies Premiere, and then be repeated out of sequence on Cartoon Network, if repeats are being seen. Sky Movies doesn't repeat them, they played in order, every Saturday at 10:00am and 5:30pm. I think the UK episodes run at 2 or 3 episodes behind the CN screenings in the states.
Best episodes from Series 1 -

They could do something like Clone Wars for the REAL Star Wars (the original trilogy) about the rebellion beween ep 4 and 5.
I'd watch that. Luke in early stages of Jediness, Han and Leia flirting away, C3-PO finally coming out, that sort of thing.
And Admiral Ackbar. Can't have too much Admiral Ackbar.

In America. In the UK it's on Sky Movies and requires pin entry on Saturday mornings through our Virgin Media box. Like the movies, the episodes are rated PG.
Like he said, they're no less violent than the movies at their most violent. Clones are slaughtered - shot in the head, necks broken. Jedi are killed - Kit Fisto's apprentice gets into an ill advised scrap with Grevious and finds himself shot twice in the stomach after getting trapped in a saber lock.
Kit Fisto is actually voice More

Looking forward to this episode! To all those dissing the Clone Wars CG animated have obviously never seen it. Aint nothing kiddie about it. Watch "Rookies", "Landing At Point Rain" or any episode featuring Cad Bane. Check out the damn clip they just showed with Boba killing a guy in point blank range. Does that look like a kids show to you? They're more hardcore than the actual live action movies! Yeah, Deviation I have seen it and it was great but this is pretty good too. All More

Charming indeed! Much like heroin, self mutilation and drinking ones own urine I’ve never tried it but I’m pretty sure it’s not for me. It deals with interpretations of the characters that I find repugnant and refuse to be exposed to any longer. I also find the overall aesthetic and artistic direction of the series uninspired and off-putting. And now the Boba-Baby is in it too so I’m doubly More

An over reliance on animation is what sealed Star Wars' fate.
Now computers and cartoons have taken over the legacy, there is very little left of what made the original triology so great in the first place.
You can keep your Clone Wars and your navel gazing Jedi soap opera acting of Eps 1,2 & most of 3. It's like Lucas never really understood the true heart of Star Wars - the human face, the cynical 'wtf?' attitude of Han Solo.
Alec Guinness managed to make dodgy dialogue sound like Shak More
