    Oh yeah, you've gotta take them at some point if possible. Magic Kingdom is always good, and make sure you include Disney's Hollywood Studios so you can go to Star Tours. It has multiple story possibilities... we went twice and had two different stories. We just did our most recent Disney trip this past spring break.

    Star Tours is cool. I've seen three storylines myself. I guess Disney is something the kids should do once. I usually just tell folks who visit FL to just go to the beach though. =b

    When it comes to theme parks I like Universal Studios and Busch Gardens Tampa better. When Magic Kingdom brings back Alien Encounter I'll revisit this.

    I know how you feel. I've grown increasingly bored with this forum after TCW's end(and disappointed by the absence of the Sun Guard in the series). It was my main motive for visiting the forum to begin with. There's the Episode VII subforum, but all the topics are essentially endless speculation with barely any news. However, considering the fact that we've got a new upcoming animated series with Filoni involved as well as a new trilogy coupled with several spinoff films, I'd say we still have a lot to look forward to.

    Yeah, this dearth of news since the bonus content was announced has left this forum fairly lifeless... But I'm sure once we receive something official that we'll all jump on it like a pack of ravenous, rabid hyenas. :D Those who haven't succumbed to the lack of activity here and left will undoubtedly leap at any bone thrown towards them...I guess that includes us!

    Actually thats kinda how it worked when new seasons were on. The folks involved with TCW would throw us some scraps and maybe a trailer. Then we'd pretty much go in circled discussing every part of it to death until the next thing came or the new season finally came on.

    And I'm sad now... way to go...

    Sigh, it looks like it will be one long offseason.

    Disney has a deal with Netflix, right? What if the bonus content becomes a Netflix exclusive premiere? I'd love it if 3-4 story arcs appeared in one day on Netflix!

    I know, might not happen, but I needs me my Clone Wars!

    I think Disney should turn the last few arcs into a musical. And then release them on Netflix.

    Actually no I don't want that.

    Actually maybe I do. Maybe it would be worth all the cringing just to hear ol' Admiral Trench belt out a tune. Disney villains always have the best songs. And Trench is... a Disney villain now? I guess? Technically? Wow that's a weird thought.

    Disney also is a part owner of Hulu which would make it a prime method to release this Bonus Content. Hulu is looking for original and exclusive content much like Netflix has.

    A Netflix release would be interesting. I'm still hoping for DVD's though!

    At least.

    He actually said he's taught for one thousand generations, so that would place his history all the way back to the "Dawn of the Jedi" era!

    Still, cool to see a reference to him.

    Voted, thank you for posting this.

    This is a really cool droid design. I liked Huyang's modesty.=b

    Ahhh, the Gree droids. These guys are so much fun ... okay, so the model is not Gree-droid excusive, but the first time I had seen it in SWTOR was in the Gree 'embassy' on Coruscant.

    So I was just wondering how everyone feels about the 4-episode arc format in retrospect? Personally, I feel they tended to overuse it. While I loved Fugitive, Rako Hardeen, Shadow Conspiracy and Umbara, I felt the use of the format was actually detrimental to Onderon, the Droid arc, and to some extent: Young Jedi. Part of the appeal of Clone Wars was its galaxy-spanning storytelling, and it was sometimes easy to get setting-fatigue after being stuck on the same planet week after week.

    Four-episode arcs were part of why the show continued on the downhill spiral that began in season 3 with the Ahsoka Can Do No Wrong bad character writing. As you said, it was overused and really messed up a strong aspect of seasons 1 and 2, the opportunity to focus on "secondary" Jedi who did not get much screen time in the movies.

    The droid storyline might have been decent if it had only been one episode. It would have been a weird R2-centric episode and if it had used one plotline of Missing in Action, it would have shown Anakin's attachment to objects in addition to people.

    As a four-episode arc, however, I needed brain bleach almost as badly as I needed it after Mortis and Shades of Reason.

    Rako Hardeen and Fugitive needed a couple of episodes, but I'm not sure even they needed four.
