Clone Wars information and Episode III spoiler news - *Contains Ep3 Spoilers*

This thread is here as the one and only place where Episode III spoilers can be discussed here in this forum.

Since the Clone Wars project is designed to tie directly into both Attack of the Clones and Episode III, there's going to be information that will link to known spoilers, and shed new light on them.

Spoilers that are known can also play a part in guessing what will happen in some of the shows, and how the story could unfold.

Most of the Episode III discussion involving spoilers should be conducted in the Episode III (spoilers Allowed) forum, but for things related mainly to the cartoons themselves, please us this thread, and do not post spoilers in the rest of this forum, or action will be taken.

 

Wehey I'm the first one to post in this thread! Is the Clone Wars cartoon only in America?

 

I'd like to know that myself. It would be a real shame for an international audience to miss out.

 

I have no idea whether or not it'll be shown in other countries. It might end up being available for download from the Official Site, but there's no proof yet that it will be.

 

Well i dont believe that has been said already by Lucasfilm, but i think because of the marketingreason it will be relaesed international.

And i do hope that they think of releasing it here in the Netherlands without Dutch voices.

 

Will Durge and Commander Assajj Ventress appear in EpIII? I think they will meet their fate in the Dark Horse comics than in the cartoon. I wonder if Ventress is Mace Windu's Vapaad Form VI master?

A Sith Witch/Dark Jedi figure is mentioned so I think its Ventress. As for the Jedi Bounty Hunter, I was hoping for Mandalorians but it could be Durge. Also, will Aurra Sing have a role in the Clone Wars? Dark Horse is going to have an upcoming Aayla Secura vs Aurra Sing story that takes place during the war.

Considering the length of the shorts, and the nature of the internet, one would expect that shortly after airing in the US, MPEGs will be widely available to anybody with an ounce of internet competancy.

I would also expect that we will not allow direct linking to bootlegged digital copies to them from theforce.net.

Hopefully LFL will realise the inevitable, and put Quicktime copies on the Official Site soon after they are broadcast.

 

It might end up being available for download from the Official Site, but there's no proof yet that it will be.

It will probably be on kazza just after it has been aired anyway.

 

are they a full 30 minutes because i heard they might be shorts

 

Right now, it looks like they're 2-3 minute shorts.

 

I don't like spoilers. They ruin the film.

 

I wish they were 30 minute episodes....

 

Just a thought. I have a feeling on the night that it starts, they might air more then one episode. It would be a good way to kick off the series. Also, it would be a good idea to every month or so to to air all of the episodes to that point in a marathon, during the weekends. This would allow people to keep up on the story. Notice too that the 2-3 minute length is a estimate, some could be longer than others.

 

Good idea Kadue!

 

I would like to think that Cartoon Network & Lucasfilm will release them all on one DVD just before episode III comes out or sortly after.

 

I hope they'd be aired on Cartoon Network affiliates around the world. Having it on DVD would be nice as well.

 

We need to do a really good job, here at the boards and at TFN in general, of communicating episode airdates and times, so that we can have VCRs rolling...

Well if they are 8 Minute Shorts You Can fit three inot a Half-hour slot with Commercials... At Least Two, Maybe Obi and ANi can spend the rest of the time critisizing Music Videos Beavis and Butthead Style...

 

Hi, there!

A few days ago, I loged on to The.Force.net
and saw the news about "CLONE WARS". I can't
wait. At the top of the page, it said "JEDI COUNCIL FORUMS", so I made an account and here I am!

 

Welcome....

 

"Welcome...."

"Welcome to the forums :"

Thank you... I think I'm going to like it here!

 

This info comes from the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly.

They have an article about the clone wars cartoon and they mention that Mace Windu will lose his lightsaber.

Now will he get it back or will he have to make a new one? And if he does not get it back will Mace have a new saber in Episode III.

Plus one more thing is this George Lucas's way of getting rid of the purple lightsaber and the whole blue + red = purlpe = Mace is a bad guy debate.
