Topic: The Clone Wars

[Tamer]

This is a wierd one as it is posted in the movie and TV threads, but hey the trailers are out on the official star wars site and here is some more info as transferred from Niebs:

Got a new trailer to see.  Gives some more details of the story.  This is going to kick ass.  http://www.filmweb.pl/%22Gwiezdne+Wojny++Wojny+Klon%C3%B3w%22++zobacz+polski+zwiastun,News,id=42411

Only a little over two weeks until theClone Wars hits. I am ready and hoping that it's not too cheesy. So far, everything about it looks pretty good. I wonder how long the theater presentation will last. Over 2 hrs would be nice.

[Tamer]

after taking a look at the Clone Wars Visual Guide, I don't see how they cannot do at least two hours with the movie release and still not have hours and hours of the different environments and skirmishes there seem to be. I am must hoping they give us one good land battle and one good space battle. I don't want just a little bit here and a little bit there. I want to see some explosions!

[Clonehead]

I thought that i read that the visual guide was to cover the movie and the tv series episodes. I believe most of what we see there is the movie with a bit dedicated to the series.
  I'm with you on the explosions. I want to see some droids getting tore up. Some space battle scenes are a must also.
I could do without many gratuitus Jar Jar scenes.

I will second that Jar Jar notion. Good lord help us if they make a CW figure in this wave. I may just not get one.

Now Tamer, don't be that way! I'm sure you will be picking up a minty Jar Jar if he becomes available.

Only if he has a first day of issue with blue gloss lettered card.

Fear not my friends, the Clone Wars movie is supposed to be over two hours long. A friend of a friend works a WB and has seen the entire film. SPOILER ALERT read no further if you would prefer not knowing.

 Apparently the film and the series will feature Star wars versions of WWII news and propaganda reels prior to the episodes. Other info has it that a large part of the series is spent getting to know the clones as characters. One scene in particular is said to feature Yoda sitting with some clones arround a campfire bonding with them. One of the primary focuses of the series is to actually depict how much of a hero Anakin was prior to his fall from grace. More good news is that one of the primary writers for the Clone Wars/Republic comic book series is also a writer on the show and the continuity will be seamless for the most part and we can look forward to some elements from that truly spectacular comic series being seen in the new animated program.

Yoda sitting around a campfire with Clones! Sounds great to me. Thanks for the info Sean. Give me more!

[Clonehead]

Not sure what you meant but, they are friendly with force users, and I'm sure they won't be force sensitives themselves. Hope that answers your question.

Marshmallows you will have...mmm...

[Clonehead]

Force sensitave is what I meant.

Hopefully Yoda and the clones aren't sitting around the campfire eating smores and singing coum by yea, don't think its the right spelling, but that is as close as I can get.

[Obi-Sean Kenobi]

I think it's supposed to be about Yoda sharing his philosophy with his troops and the clones becoming more than just pre-programmed cardboard cutouts of Jango Fett. That's the impression I got.
