TV-Commentary - Star Wars Revenge of the Sith Episode III
How lame is the new microcartoon Attack of the Clones Series?
1) There is no way to tell a story in 3 minutes. The animation has to move so quickly that if you blink an eye you will miss large amounts of action. Animation should be slow enough that you can actually see the things moving around.

2) The animation is very simple without detail, drawn about as well as the Simpsons.

3) The plot makes no sense. Several "episodes" were shown attacking the banking planet. And then the robots on speeder bikes fought back, blowing up the troopers. And then the story turned elsewhere. What was the purpose of those several episodes showing the troopers attacking? Who knows?

4) Most episodes feature characters who say little or nothing. If we can't know anything about the characters, why should we care?

5) This kind of exposition of the Clone Wars would have been good for a MOVIE. Instead we get drip drip of hastily put together and poorly animated three minute clips. What a waste.

For 3 minute cartoons, they were put together far better than any of the prequel movies. The prequel trilogy should have been shelved before it made it to the script stage. I've never been more disappointed in my life.

Ya know Xavier, when you look at it like that you just might be on to something there. Yes, Obi-Wan could have done a mercy killing on Ani, he was suffering badly. Obi-Wan's soul wouldn't have gone on to the Darkside. But maybe he knew what was going to happen and just let it happen so that Luke would bring back the Jedi order.

I want 2 know why didn't Obi Wan kill Anakin when he had the chance? Beacause since I had the Dvd I watch it over and over.I blame Obi wan for Datrh Vader coming back and killing all those people on Alderaan


       The commentator Diaclone73 posts on 11/14/2005 8:41:22 PM

Well, once they put out the DVD of Star Wars: Clone Wars, things start to make sense because from what I know they patched in the plot holes to make things flow a bit better, added amnimation clips here and there. Remember, this was originaly aimed at little children and young Star War fans so hyped and spooled up on their own fandom the writters weren't thinking anyone would really stop to question anything or pick it apart. It was a hard sell for me in the begining but I gave it shot and I found I liked it a lot, can't wait for Vol.2 and the yet to be seen Star Wars Chronicals TV show. I wonder how Colony Wars would stack-up next to Star Wars as a TV show??

genral grevious chould have never beat four jedi members of the councel and scare the hel7 out of them I MEAN IN THE MOVIE EPISODE 3 OBI-ONE BEATS HIM IN 5 MIN!


       starwarsjunki posts on 9/17/2005 4:27:28 PM

they should have made the episodes longer and anakin hotter. i mean hello obi-wan looked better than anakin in the micro series, which is so wrong. they should make all those stupid side stories people write about star wars into episodes so people can actually understand them.


       Ithorian posts on 6/11/2005 10:18:46 AM

The new series is good as it is longer but the old one is a complete joke. It's too short and not enough dialogue.


       Darth Sar'lana posts on 6/3/2005 9:36:30 AM

I hate that sieris a bunch of cartoons running around as my fav cahrictors makes me sooo mad


       The commentator Lord Reptile posts on 6/2/2005 12:37:27 AM

Err, maybe it's just me but the large ship is clearly on fire, and the other ship is pumping water over it - to put out the fire.


       Darth Hater posts on 3/14/2005 11:35:31 AM

its not lame it tells alot between the episode 2 and episode 3. what does make it lame is the animation part. so it is a little lame but very informative


       Grimley Fieendish posts on 3/13/2005 3:11:36 AM

Re:last comment 1)Lucas origionally wanted 1 minute episodes, but was persuaded to go for 3 minutes per episode. Volume 2 of Clone Wars will consist of 5 12 minute episodes... 2) It's stylised Manga 3) The Miniseries is basically "Snapshots from the Front line", so to speak & covers different theatres of war


       Allura posts on 2/12/2005 12:47:48 AM

very lame. I could write better that that, and Im 13
