STAR [the clone wars] WARS

Please click PLAY and continue to read the blog









(read the following 3 lines in Tom Kane's narration style - like every prologue of the clone wars) Governments are rotting, soldiers are dieing for no reason across continents, terrorists bombing without warning and youth are stabbed for no reason in the tube stations while general Vishnu sits down with his membrosia mug to write the greatest blog ever for the greatest new animated series on television. STAR WARS the clone wars. (end of narration)

With the beginning of the second season it was clear that STAR WARS the clone wars was not for children like many "critics" (those people who don't/can't do anything except try to look smart by putting up a fight with the greatest things) had complained when the animated movie came out. The animated movie (released - 2008 in cinemas across the globe) was the opening for the TV series which is now the greatest animated show ever.


For those of you STILL CONFUSED about WHEN this story takes place...
After Attack of the Clones and before Revenge of the Sith. All doubts cleared, so start watching from season 1 or you will be confused further more.

Now, back to talking about Season 2.
Senate sequences reflect ongoing problems of our reality. Many clone troopers losing their lives while some of the senators trying to prevent this from happening, others protest for protection. Brilliant Character Developments and mind boggling plots. Moments that will push you to the edge or out of the chair, jump, clap or laugh in excitement. Star Wars will always be a culture even for the future younglings to follow. Great work by the writers, directors, technical directors, animators and all the other artists and technicians and the actors. Master George Lucas must be thanked for making it possible as he is the godfather of this Star Wars the clone wars animated series as well.

It was shameful and biased at the "annie awards" this year as they didn't even nominate the greatest animated show on television at the moment.
Previously we had He-man TAS*, X-men TAS, G.I.Joe TAS, Batman TAS, Robocop TAS, Spiderman TAS, Superman TAS, Swat Kats TAS, Johnny Quest TAS, Samurai Jack TAS, The New Batman Adventures*, Batman Beyond TAS, Hulk TAS, F4 TAS, Justice League and Justice League Unlimited TAS (one of the highest rated television shows) X-men Evolution TAS, The Batman TAS, Legion of Superheroes TAS (etc etc etc) and now... it is STAR WARS THE CLONE WARS.

This was unexpected. The aim was to make something bigger than the Genndy Tartakovsky project a few years ago, STAR WARS CLONE WARS the micro series. Aired on cartoon network for 5 minutes every day on weekdays. Later released as Vol.1 and Vol.2 on DVD. This series was so good, it won Emmy Award(s). Master George Lucas was happy with the outcome of the Tartakovsky and gang's work on Star Wars. But as soon as that was over he (master Lucas) told us that he was planning on an animated series after Episode 6 (Revenge of the Sith). "Only this time it is going to be 3D" he mentioned. To be honest, this is the best ever 3D animated series. Mightier than Max Steel. Greater than even Starship Troopers animated series or Sitting Ducks (one of my all time favorites, highly recommended if you have missed out).We can only hope that Star Wars The Clone Wars would not end soon. If you still have not watched it, you better start now. Black crystal sabers, lovers from the past, epic battles and how the separatist got owned every time they tried to act smart... everything and all thing star wars is happening. Great addition to the Star Wars myth, this series has become.

Here are some beautiful shots from the 2nd season, think of them as teaser images. In the current storyline we even get a peek at the history of the black saber (the way the black saber moves is just too much).





































And now, the exclusive preview = Season 2 Episode 16

If you are busy and have too much work... finish it soon and start watching. If you have paused after season 1, continue soon. This show must be seen to believe it's massiveness.

May the force be with you
