RE: Clone Wars 3D Animated Series Slated for release Fall 2007!!!
|
I can't wait for the new series, becuase I just read that the live-action tv series won't be out until sometime in 2008. It's a rumor, but a good one. Also, with Lucasfilm just moving to the new facility and the Indiana flick and the Red something movie that GL is is doing. It seams very sensible that the live action is coming out in 2008. We thought the clone wars cartoons were coming out next year, and now they are coming out in the fall of 2007.
I really liked the clone wars cartoon series that came out, my only complaint was that it was way to short, but you know what. Compared to the previous outings with the Ewoks and Droids cartoons that were 30 minutes in length, the clone wars were great. What? Two Emmy nominations and one emmy victory in the can, plus and annie nomination? The older series ran longer and did horrrible.
The choice of era for the animation does baffle me a bit, but in reality it was the best choice. What era could they really show massive space ships battling each other, big land battles, jedi in action? Not the Galactic Civil War era, the rebels didn't achieve there fist victory until very close to ANH. GL hasn't really showed any interest in pursuing live action or animation after ROTJ. All his stuff so far are between Episode 1-6. This even includes the Ewok movies.
Though the 3-D animation will be cool, no doubt. The truth is when you already tally everything that has occurred in the clone wars, I'd have to agree with what someone posted. The clone wars stands as being the era to be oversaturated.
Compared to other eras, the clone wars are covered in both Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith (begining and end), they have numerous novels to include the Boba Fett books, a heck of alot of comic books, several video games, several short stories in the Star Wars Insider with those Holonet news bulletins, the cartoon series, plu smore cartoons coming out in the future. Oh well, the more the better I guess.

the gap between II and III is not one I care to be filled in on.... give me the gap between 3 and 4.
Most of the people who have grown up with the OT think the exact same way.
But when a friend of mine saw Episode III, he said to me: "Where is the rest of the Clone Wars? I thought the movie started where Episode II ended." He also saw the OT, but he didnt grow up with it. So I guess the fanbase "under 25", as George put it, is more interested in the gap between II and III than between III and IV.

I don't think that many casual Star Wars Fans or non Star Wars Fans read, watched, or played anything on the Clone Wars. The original Clone Wars Animated Mini-Series didn't get that much publicity and the episodes in the first volume were only 3 minutes and the episodes in the second volume were 12 minutes. The fact that the Clone Wars 3D Animated Series is going to have full length 30 minute episodes will help. I think the Clone Wars 3D Animated Series will be more mainstream and get way better ratings than the original Clone Wars Animated Mini-Series.

Saw the Advent Child trailers, and all I have to say is ******* awesome. If clone wars looks anything like this, then it will rule.

Am I the only one, who is absolutly not interested in Clone Wars anymore.... we now the end already, the gap between II and III is not one I care to be filled in on.... give me the gap between 3 and 4.
The Clone Wars....? Nah, I'll pass.
Oversaturation.
I came to this board just now with the SPECIFIC purpose of making the same point. I found this thread, and there you were to say it FOR me. i couldn't agree more!

George Lucas has NOT raped anyone's childhood. It's his story. He may not tell it the way YOU would, but it's HIS. If the direction of the prequels bothers you so badly, don't buy a ticket. Funny... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v494/eethit/own3dbaby

The upcoming Star Wars Live Action TV Series is going to fill the gap in between ROTS and ANH. I don't think that many casual Star Wars Fans or non Star Wars Fans read, watched, or played anything on the Clone Wars. The original Clone Wars Animated Mini-Series didn't get that much publicity and the episodes in the first volume were only 3 minutes and the episodes in the second volume were 12 minutes.

The Clone Wars are the height of the Jedi, and the birth of the Empire. It is a shame that it only received EU treatment, instead of playing a major role in the films. So I'm happy to have the TV show about it. I loved the Clone Wars cartoons, and I look forward to more of it.
Regarding the show being 3D Animated...well ROTS was pretty much the same thing. The sets were in large part digital, many of the characters were 100% digital, and even the main characters were often swapped with digital doubles.
So really we've already seen 3D Animated Star Wars, this is just the small screen version of it.

No it's going to look different than the digital used in ROTS.
