Sorry, this movie sucks

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I must admit the Star Wars prequel trilogy was a little underwhelming (with the exception of Revenge of the Sith), but as the middle between Attack of the Clones and that aforementioned film, this really works. We get to see battles between the droid and the clone armies as well as Jedi action. As the brainchild and joint result of Genndy Tartakovsky and Lucasfilm, this was the best pre-Disney prequel involving the Clone Wars. We also get to hear the voices of Grey DeLisle (who would later voice Azula from Avatar: The Last Airbender) and James Arnold Taylor (who is one of the many actors to portray Obi-Wan Kenobi apart from Ewan McGregor and the late Alec Guinness). But this doesn't skimp on the action and the talk scenes aren't as much as the prequel trilogy. Let's see if you can find a complete series. Or hopefully they'll release a blu-ray complete series set. Please?

I must say, I was a bigger fan of these shorts compared to the Star Wars The Clone Wars that this spawned off. This series really answered a ton of questions on what happened between AOTC and ROTS. This series should be brought into the official cannon, which Disney conveniently neglected to add when they purchased LucasFilm.This series should be viewed by those that saw the movies, but had questions what had happened between. Overall 8 out of 10.

It's pretty funny that the best Star Wars story set in the prequel era comes as a miniseries that aired on Cartoon Network of all places, from 2003 to 2004. I believe this series to be superior to the 2008 computer animated version (which is still pretty good), and far superior to the three live action films.The series has many subplots, each showing a different characters situation during the famous Clone War. These include showing well known characters like Anakin and Obi-Wan, and also minor characters, like Luminary Unduli and Barriss Offee. While these aren't connected in story, they are connected in the theme of war and how it changes people, something touched on but not really explored in depth in the live action prequel films.The animation is fantastically stylised, and in my opinion, is far better than the 3D animation from the later Clone Wars series. Characters move in fluid motions, and the voices are well synced up to the mouths of the characters. Each character looks a lot like their live action counterparts, and for the most part, they sound pretty similar too.The characters introduced in this series are great. Asaaj Ventress, later popularised in the 3D series, is given an introduction and an ending in this, which is more than she got in the later series. General Grievous is awesome in this, a far cry from the wheezing coward seen in Revenge of the Sith. There is a great scene in which Grievous single-handedly dispatches of numerous Jedi, which really sells how powerful his character is.It does have flaws, which is a disappointment, seeing how great the rest of the series is, such as some really bland voice acting, in particular, Mat Lucas as Anakin, who makes Hayden Christensen look positively amazing. There is also the case of the Jedi being even more over-powered than they are in the live action prequels. There is a part where Mace Windu destroys a whole army of battle Droids just by using the force, which begs the question as to why he didn't do that at the end of Attack of the Clones.But overall, I really love this series, and how it perfectly connects Episodes II and III of the saga. Now, it had sadly been rendered non-canon, and does raise questions in continuity if watched along side the 3D version, but really, I'd rater watch this series anyway.

Clone Wars: Volume 1 Originally airing as a series of 3 minute "mini-sodes", the first volume of Genndy Tartakovsky's "Clone Wars" doesn't quite flow as smoothly when viewed as one continuous story, but the non-stop action and fantastic animation serve to propel it into an immensely entertaining, if not always narratively satisfying, tale. The best arc involves new villain Asajj Ventress and her quest to kill Anakin Skywalker. Tartakovsky and his team do an excellent job of giving their story a real cinematic quality. The rest of the vignettes are more straight forward action, but they do help to flesh out a conflict that was given short shrift in the live action films.Clone Wars: Volume 2 Ties up the remaining loose ends from the first season and then leaps ahead in time to just before the opening crawl of 'Revenge of the Sith'. These episodes were longer, and the story focus here is much tighter. As a result, volume 2 feels more like a movie when watched all at once. Unfortunately, it lacks anything as compelling as the Ventress arc from season 1. Still, it's a fast paced and entertaining slice of animated action. I only wish this had been conceived as a traditional, full-length animated series.
