Well...I'm not quite as excited about this as most others seem to be.
Maybe it's the crappy FLASH version we're forced to watch, but I don't think it looked all that spectacular.
It's basically a bad version of Shrek in space...and I can't stand Shrek, nor that style of animation.
I hope to God that the 'real' stuff looks a lot better than what I just saw.

Don't get me wrong, I'll watch every minute of it, because it's Star Wars.
Hell, I sat though AOTC enough times, so I can take 'crappy' Star Wars...which is pretty much better than of anything else.

Generally, I don't like bashers and I don't mean to sound like one...apologies.

"My powers have doubled since the last time we met".

How does this imply they only met once?

It was weird to hear the Clonetroopers with different voices - I'm guessing/hoping this was a placeholder vocal?


I can see the nod towards Genndy's Clone Wars shorts and the films themselves, but did anyone else get a SW: Republic (the Dark Horse comic series) vibe from the trailer?

Another lurker reporting in: I thought it looked really really good, and I'm sure it will be coming from Lucas, but it made me want see what they have up their sleeve for the live action show. I don't want to be a killjoy, but nothing they will ever come up with on a computer will ever replace the greatness of a real lightsaber fight! I guess want I'm saying is that this fanboy has no patience tongue

It looked like a B-wing to me, but I'm not to sure, and people in the thread seem to disagree.

Has anyone thought that this could be a huge replacement for a Fox show like the Simpsons? It would seem to make sense as much as I'd hate to lose that show.

I saw this trailer at Celebration IV in all it's digitally projected greatness, it was beautiful to look at on a big screen, now all I want to do is see these in the theater, it was that awesome, my only complaint is the limited movement in the characters faces, like Thunderbirds and Team America puppets. They showed the tralier twice and the director had us in stitches, they showed a video of him around Skywalker Ranch and the staff and two shots of him and George. George at first wasn't going to work on the series that much but he got excited about it and he's really involved now, in in the story, and they said story is everything. There's more on what happened but I'm to tired to type anymore, I must go to bed.

Absolutely breathtaking.

The visual look of it is so much better than I imagined. The space and lightsaber battles look awesome. I love the scene of Anakin jumping between the STAPs and then taking control of one.

Exciting!

And where was Plo Koon??


You see him 3 times:

The first shows him walking on the bridge of a venator with an officer behind him
The 2nd is after Greivous fires some weapon and you see clones running, if you look closely you see Plo Koon standing there by the exit.
The 3rd is right before Yoda's line to Padme it shows the back of his head at the cockpit of a ship surrounded by clones.

All they need now is Quinlan Vos and the gang and it could be. tongue

Seriously though, I certainly wouldn't mind seeing some of the Jedi from Republic in this. Two were already in it on Hypori
and it would be great to see Vos playing the double agent, tholme, t'ra saa, the dark woman and A'sharad hett. Likely wishful thinking, but if the show is successful, hopefully it might happen in a future season.

Some of the things I'm worried will throw off the plot though, like Anakin vs Dooku again?



My guess is that that's a dream sequence or vision or something like that. I could be wrong, though. We'll see.

I'm looking forward to it. It looks pretty fun.

There's also the fact that Dooku and Anakin have faced at least a handful of times in the EU already, so smacking the series for doing it again, that's stupid. It just sounds like people are trying to find flaws in the series. The EU is way screwed up as it is, this series couldn't make it any worse, if anything, it'll be better suited to actually be called Star Wars.

So glad Asajj Ventress is in the mix! Even though she sounds a bit too gruff for me. I would like a more sultry voice like the one in the 2d version.

I'm not all that impressed with the 3d animation quality of the human characters. Looks very rugged and fake but I guess the budget cannot get it to the level of the Incredibles. The space battles look very good. It's all very dark but I am pretty sure it'll come together well. The cartoon network show set the bar high imo. Will be weird to hear Grevious sans cough.

Was hoping it would be set earlier in the wars and not just 6months before RotS if that is the case. Seems like that would limit the storytelling involved.
