Check out starwars.com, and you'll see an image link to a new video for the movie/series. It's odd, because the video appears to not yet exist...? From the description, it appears to possibly include footage of the uphill battle with the AT-TEs. Any thoughts on this?

Interesting. Now the video link appears to have been deleted as well. I did a google search, however, and found that the page for the video on starwars.com still exists. Click the link below.

Yeah, thanks... Just wish it would work! I wonder why i was removed. Has this sort of thing happened before with new starwars.com updates?

I seem to remember this happening once before, but it was because of technical difficulties.

EDIT: It's up now on the main page.

Great video, nice to get some new footage.

The vertical battle looks awesome, I think the animation is smoother than I first thought.

And whoever does Dooku's voice is spot on.

Did Rex's voice sound a little off to anyone else? The clones in the cartoon seemed closer to Temuera Morrison.

Wow, just saw it. Great video! Ugh, still no Grievous. Oh well. Maybe next time. I really loved the battle between Dooku and Anakin. The Dooku animation is finally beginning to grow on me a bit. I also loved the end, with Anakin and Rex. Anakin's voice sounded good, to me, as did Rex's. Really sweet new footage! Keep 'em coming, Lucasfilm!

Who knows how far in advance they did these videos? I wouldn't be shocked if that was a placeholder voice.

In the other dialogue with Rex, he sounds better.

Man, this series is going to be so cool.

And Dooku's voice sounds great and Rex's voice sounds better than it did in the past. Does anyone else think the planet first shown with Obi-Wan is Muunilist? I really loved the look of that planet in the Tartakovsky CW.

Hmmm, maybe you're right! It might be Muunilist. The thing I'm really wondering is this: all the stuff we've seen so far - is it from the movie, or the series, or both? Another thing: the trailer that was recently leaked - what was it for? Was it for the movie, or the series? I'm guessing it was for the movie, but I'm not sure.

That video was great! I agree, Dooku and Captain Rex sounded great.

I wonder why we still have not heard Obi Wan speak? Dooku sounded just like he did in the original Clone Wars cartoon, just a bit more menacing, and Tom Kane is confirmed to be playing Yoda (You can definitely tell it is him in the trailer) and Grey DeLisle confirmed she is playing Asajj Ventress according to a report from the Star Wars Fan Days in Texas last October. I hope, considering several of the voice actors from the original cartoon are returning, that the actor who voiced Obi Wan returns again because I think he did a great job.

Now that I've seen it, it confirms what I had strongly suspected: the report of Ashoka actually being in battle against an AT-TE is just a misinterpretation of the clip.

I'm not the biggest fan of the animation, but I can get past that quite easily if the series delivers good action, decent plotlines, and some decent dialouge. From all the videos I've seen it appears like it will have plenty of action. Despite my reservations regarding the animation, I'm still really excited for it though.

It certainly sounded like her in the first trailer.

My internet connection is fast enough, but I'm having the same problem. Terrible.

What I saw looked good, though.

...so this Dave Filoni guy--is he any good? I'm looking at IMDB and it looks like Avatar is the only big thing he's done. I've never seen it.

Looks like he also did some work on Mission Hill, which is one of the best shows ever made. So far so good.
