Live action series for me. It's new and I've always liked live action just a tad bit more than animation. Plus I think having the animated show, which will have familiar characters, and having a live action show with new characters is the best of both worlds.

I love the Clone Wars stuff. I like the cartoons, books, etc... But if I don't see anymore from that era, I'd be fine with it. I get what's going on there. Lots of fighting across planets and galaxies, Jedi teaming up with all sorts of aliens, etc... Got it. But the period between the two trilogies where everything falls apart, becomes neglected, and the Rebellion is truly born is the huge piece that's missing. The Clone Wars only takes place over a few years between Episodes two and three. The duration covered by the live action series will be nearly 20 years. Much more to see and explore in that timeframe.

Personally, I don't want neither. It just seams that when it comes to theater/cinema/television, GL can't do or authorize anything before TPM or after ROTJ. If they wanted to do an animation series, it should have been in the KOTOR era due to all those enhanced whacked out force powers and stuff like that. The live action tv series is just that.......live action EU which has no bearings to the movies. Yeah the themes are their, redemption, sacrifice, darkness, hope, and the like, but don't we have that already with the numerous novels and comic books? I'm also not to thrilled with more Boba Fett. Common, we have several novels including juvenile ones, a video game and three movies were we see this dude, not too mention his army template. Don't care for more clone wars, and the live action is definitley not Lost.

If they both had the same budgets then definitely Live Action for me(as long as they don't overdo the CGI). Everything looks better IMO when it's live action as compared to animation.

I'm absolutely thrilled over the animated series because it looks so amazing, but the LAS has the potential to be much more. If it really will seek to appeal to a more mature audience like Battlestar Galactica, then it will take the Star Wars franchise to a whole new level.

With movie-quality level that some shows have been able to produce like Lost and 24, this series can and should be amazing. I have some high hopes for this show. I'm hoping it can bridge the gap between the two trilogies in terms of quality by having the character and story driven plots of the originals, and the visually pleasing effects (though obviously to a lesser extent) of the prequels.

Plus, like others have said, largely new characters, with some of the originals mixed in, new plots, etc. It should be amazing. If they put some real work into this series, I expect it to be a huge hit.

Speaking of Battlestar Galactica and Lost it was rumored/reported a few months back that Lucas interviewed writers from both shows for slots as writers for the LAS. It was also reported in September that Lucas had interviewed over 200 writers from around the world for about 5 or 6 writing slots, so we should get some quality writers. If they do in fact get good writers who have experience the potential for this show and probably the hype will be enormous.

Clone Wars has me excited, but honestly, a live action Star Wars series has been my dream for years. SWLA for me.

If I absolutely had to pick one or the other I'd say the LAS. But I enjoy the CW storylines and characters better.

I am going for the LA Series. I've always been more of a fan of LA things rather than cartoons. Seeing Star Wars in a LA show like that is going to be amazing! grin

Live Action of course!

Hoping to see new locations or familiar EU ones in a Live Action environment!

Plus, it's The Dark Times! What's cooler than that!

3D The Clone Wars. For now at least. There are a lot of things that can go wrong with a "Live Action" series of Star Wars.

I have to say Clone Wars because it's about the characters and the era I love most. LAS is virgin territory and I don't know anybody there. Basically it's the first day of school and I've always hated the first day of school.

I want to see the clone wars more cause its all animated, and all of the movies have been live action mostly.
