Not to be confused with the CG Lucasfilm series (which is technically The Clone Wars), Genndy Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars is Star Wars in his signature action style, on the same level as Samurai Jack. Airing for two seasons on Cartoon Network (which is why I doubt Disney cares if I use someone’s YouTube upload), season one was a “micro-series”, a series of 11 minute shorts exploring some of the bigger battles of the Clone Wars. Season two went full length, taking time to explore the characters closely and leading up to the events of Revenge Of The Sith, including Palpatine’s “kidnapping” and the origin of General Grevious’ weezing.
Tonight we look at volume one. This introduces Asajj Ventress, shows the Jedi being awesome, and featuring threats that wouldn’t have worked in the live-action movies or the CG series due to fitting in with Tartakovsky’s high action formula. Sorry for the shorter intro but I’m not sure what else to say. Enjoy.
