Speculating is one of the human mind's strengths. It always has been. 
I am still sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to hear of the international release dates. All we know so far is "soon". They wouldn't dare make it more than a day later, would they?

Look Im not gonna lie, Part of me is really excited about this, but another part of me is mad. I mean geez!! Why not just have a normal Television Premiere. Now I have to dish out 7+ dollars just to watch the Pilot episode/Movie in theaters ugh!! I have a 57 inch HD TV with DirecTV HD so there is not much incentive for me to dish out the money to see it in theaters.
Not all of us have such a good TV though 
And trust me- having seen the Clone Wars trailer on the big screen at C4, this show was meant for a big screen presentation.
Besides, I bet cartoon network will just reair the pilot on TV anyways.

When you think of continuity you have to remember that there are really two continuities. One for the movies and anything that GWL works directly with. The other is the EU continuity which is all the stuff LucasFilm Licensing approves. So since GWL is working directly on the Clone Wars series then you have to consider it part of the movie continuity and not part of the EU. The canon flows as such:
Movies -> TV -> EU
Actually, so far all TV material, even the stuff Lucas worked on or even actually wrote, is currently classified as EU by LFL. Only the movies and certain GL-provided backstory info are presently classified "above" other EU continuity material. And no one "has to" consider the series part of the movie continuity, since it's not classified as such, though an individual can personally choose to include it at the same level if they want, much like any other EU.

You're gonna have to trust me that I know for a fact that both of the new TV shows will not be considered part of EU canon. The only reason I even chime in on this is to give everyone some perspective when they worry about EU continuity. Just know that Clone Wars is not EU.

I thought it was said somewhere by Lucas/LFL that the original Clone Wars series is canon.

All of you continuity people, has it always been the case that someone who's not a master can have a Padawn? Or have they kind of made this up just for the 3D show?

You don't reach Jedi Master status without actually training a Padawan to Knighthood. It's also possible to have Padawans who've lost their master in combat to be assigned, even if temporarily, to other Knights.

Up until now, all TV show content has been considered EU, or, specifically, c-canon for internal reference purposes. This includes the GL-written Ewok movies, etc.
The new shows have been given a new category of "t-canon", however it has not been stated if t-canon is "higher" than c-canon in the hierarchy, or is merely being used to track content specific to the new shows for production purposes. T-canon is certainly not equal to the movies, though, otherwise they'd have just labeled the new shows G-canon like the movies.
It's quite possible t-canon may be elevated above other EU content, but there's no indication of this as of yet. Don't want to get ahead of ourselves or presume anything since there's past precedent for content like this not being elevated as such (the aforementioned Ewok movies, Lucas's story input on select novels, comics & games, etc).

hayden has told mtv news he would be intrested in doing the voice of anakin for the clone wars release !. So that makes two cast members from the films intrested in working on the project (the other being sam jackson ).getting onto the anakin has padawan subject, at that point in time during the clone wars anakin is a jedi knight ,not a padawan so he can have a padawan .during the first clone wars show he was knighted, and its made clear during revenge of the sith he is a knight not obi wans padawan . so there is no problem with him training a padawn .

I am going to be really greedy here and say this: I hope it's a nice long movie and not a short 75 minute one.
I can't wait to see this...I was looking forward to this summer's movies (The Dark Knight, etc...) and this just made it that much sweeter.

Obi-Wan was not a Jedi Master when he began training Anakin. The majority of Jedi become masters by successfully training a padawan to knighthood. Of course Jedi Masters may end up training more than one apprentice throughout their lives.
And it is not true that the only way to become a Jedi Master is to train someone. Saesee Tiin was obviously a very high ranking Jedi Master and it has been pointed out that he never took a padawan. He was promoted due to extraordinary actions. The same sort of thing Anakin was hoping for after killing Dooku in ROTS.
EDIT: I think we need some kind of spoiler free zone in here, unless we already have it. Still, looking at thread topics could give away a lot. Couldn't be more excited for this to be happening!!!

I see, thanks mate. So Anakin having a Padawam doesn't contradict anything. Its not spoek about in the series, but in terms of continuity, theres nothing to say he HASN'T had one (as long as the Padawan has died by the end of the series )
Thats good enough for me.

I really hope they'll get Hayden to do the voice of Anakin. It would make the character so much more authentic.

Emperor_Windu is also correct- you can achieve Jedi master status without training a Padawan (either due to great deeds like Tiin, or because you're a total *** so full of yourself you self-declare yourself the rank like C'Baoth ), but normally you do have to train an apprentice to knighthood.
