Knar Posted August 15, 2005 So I was told to never watch Episode 3, and I haven't. But my friends told me to watch "Clone Wars", a cartoon made by the same people of "Samurai Jack". It basically covers the plot between Episode 2 and 3. If you haven't seen it, you should - it's really good. They show the fighting prowess of the Storm Troopers. Personally, I thought Storm Troopers were another word for Cannon Fodder in Lucas' world, but "Clone Wars" shows their true fighting ability. They had intricate hand signals and fought without fear, and not to mention, Red Leader kicked ass. In "Clone Wars" General Grevious had to be one of the most menacing villians ever. My friends were mightily disappointed with Episode 3's treatment of him. I'm not going to give any plot points away, but just watch it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Posted August 15, 2005 See, I've heard that Episode 3 is worth watching. I still haven't, though. That Clone Wars cartoon does look cool, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kolzig Posted August 15, 2005 Clone Wars > Ep 3 It was an excellent series, but I haven't seen even one episode of Genndy Tartakovsky's Samurai Jack, maybe I should. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dingo Chavez Posted August 16, 2005 I dunno... Star Wars and "good" sound like an unimaginable mix to me. It may be directed by Genndy Tartakovsky, but still... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lailoken Posted August 16, 2005 I totally missed out on the whole Clone Wars goodness... so... is there some legal way to get a hold of it? I think I tried to watch them once on an official website and it told me "thou art german, eat shit" which I thought was rather rude...but not all that surprising...

miffy495 Posted August 16, 2005 the Canadian cartoon network (teletoon) still shows repeats of it every once in a while if you're up late enough and can find a way to access it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted August 16, 2005 I mean to pick up the DVD once it drops a trifle in price. Genndy Tartakovski was responsible for Dexter's Lab and his (her?) highly stylized style, though not my taste entirely, is interesting and suitable. Pity the real voices will probable not be used. Was that too much to ask? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trithemius Posted August 17, 2005 It was an excellent series, but I haven't seen even one episode of Genndy Tartakovsky's Samurai Jack, maybe I should. You should, it is quite excellent. The character design on the principal villain is really rather good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
