Full Series Official "The Clone Wars" Series Discussion Thread (Spoilers Allowed)

Durge does speak basic in the comics.

 

It was a 1-on-1 duel. Vizsla would never have forgiven Bo-Katan for interrupting, and probably would have given himself over to Maul anyway. Whatever Vizsla was, he stuck to Mandalorian tradition.

 

It would not matter if Maul was killed by Bo-Katan. What could Vizsla do? Commit suicide ?

Like I said before, since he could deceive his own people and work with the criminals, I don't see him being that stubborn.

 

Well, no, but Bo-Katan would most likely be at the very least expelled, at the most executed.

It's not "being stubborn" to Vizsla. The Mandalorian way is his life.

 

That's much better than let Maul rule Mandalore and start the bloody civil war in her view, obviously.

Including work with the criminals to harass his own people and deceive them? I don't remember there is such principle in Mandalorians' tradition.

 

Apparently much of the crew is disbanding this week: http://jedinews.co.uk/news/news.aspx?newsID=10981

 

If this quote from the article is true, I will be very disappointed in Disney's decision to cancel the series now. While I imagine Ahsoka and Ventress's fates can be left up in the air for future material, they really must wrap up Rex and Maul's story before the show concludes. I sincerely hope that this statement is merely an exaggeration to incite folks to act on behalf of the show and that the people who wrote this do not know for sure that these characters' fates aren't concluded. Unless they possess some inside information from LFA...

 

Maybe Maul's story will be explore in later material but Rex if they don't finish his story here, it will never be finished. I'm not sure that Jedi News would lie, after all it's them who announce first the cancellation of the show.

 

Everything will get wrapped up eventually, even if it's in a novel or comic series. If people want to see a conclusion enough, they'll get it in some format, and they'll have the chance to read it.

If they're far enough into a new series to be recording its pilot, presumably writing future scripts, and with Filoni preoccupied with directing, I think it's too late. LucasFilm was insistent on abruptly moving away from TCW and immediately transitioning to a new show. If their plans were so accelerated I don't think they're going to stop and rewind to tack a conclusion onto TCW, no matter how many letters they get.

It's not like Ahsoka, Asajj, and Maul are going to stay in limbo forever. If this next show does not utilize them (and therefore keep them off limits), I'm sure we'll get their stories in some format.

 

^I agree. I suppose it would be acceptable if not ideal to have Maul and Rex's stories concluded in a comic/novel/other medium, and I'm sure by now the whole letter campaign isn't going to make any difference towards the decision to cancel the show. I'm looking more and more forward to what the bonus content Filoni promised us entails, and whether we will get a proper conclusion to the series.

 

We'll just have to assume that Rex was one of the Clones who marched with Anakin into the Jedi Temple... But if the new animated series is set between episodes three and four, then I'm sure they'd show all of these characters again, and maybe even have some of them as the leading characters.

 

Hmmm, while those sites do seem reliable...I do recall they did say it would be an outright cancellation with no chance of seeing any more stories (I could be wrong on that...) so they have been wrong before... but it would really suck if we didn't get a conclusion to Maul's story which I think is the most important thing that needs wrapping up as the other three characters can be pretty self-explanatory.

 

In the words of ol Goldenrod (3PO)...

"Oh dear, oh dear."

Jimmy Mac was sadly right about the impending demise of the series, so I suspect he may also be right about the remaining arcs being very inconclusive for Maul and Rex. After all, he only needs to hear from Witner that nothing was concluded to know the truth. Maul is of course the biggest issue of all.

To make matters worse, I don't think this decision has anything to do with the success (or lack thereof) of the show, but everything to do with not only its cost in development (even if it made a profit, Disney thinks it can make back that money through cheaper merchandising), but also contract disputes with a rival network.

Now I'm worried about the s5 DVD/Blu Ray release...

The Rebel Force Radio Facebook page is taking requests for questions to ask Dave on this weeks episode.

www.facebook.com/RebelForceRadio

Some people are saying "oh, just say thank you", but thats not a question! This is our first opportunity as fans to ask about the bonus content, so why not ask away?

 

I think the most important question is: "Since all of S6 is completed, will all of the arcs get released?" or "how mnay arcs will get released?"

I'd ask them myself but I don;t want to link my FB page so my friends can see how much of a nerdy fan I am... It's more difficult being female!

 

I just left two questions for them to ask.

1. Have they finished making season six and if so, will we get to see it all, if not, how many arcs will we see.
2. Will all of the bonus content be released to DVD.

 

That basically asks my questions

I am concerned about the content being released in the UK though and whether it will be released here :/ Maybe we will get some answers from Dave.

 

wtf I'm starting to hate on Disney seriously, and K Kennedy seems to screw it all up I guess
It would be total cr** to get these in other formats like comics, the whole point of this series is that it's NOT those formats, it's a Star Wars cinematic experience

Execute order 66 on Disney, soon enough

 

I too threw out a few questions. What is truly tragic to me personally about this is that I looked forward to asking Filoni these questions in person at SDCC. Now that either will not happen, or even if it can, it will be mostly meaningless. There will likely be no clone wars panel ever again.

I will enjoy the convention for many other reasons, but Star Wars truly was my big draw for going this year. Now I just have to hope Del Ray and Dark Horse offer something of substance (What's even worse is that I find myself caring less about episode 7 even if major details 'are' announced then and there... something I never thought I'd say either.)

 

What's episode 7? Lol, I honestly haven't even thought about that since all this news about TCW.

 

In response to the arcs that are being worked on will not cover the fates of the Rex, Ventress, Ahsoka or Maul... Didn't JAT hint on his twitter page that, that's been dealt with? I can't find the actual tweet now but the way he responded to a query about it, seemed to hint that that has been tied up in a future story he's recorded and could be still being animated and is being allowed to finish possibly?

 

Maybe your friends are within the midst of LACWAC.

 

Bingo. I've had a good friend of mine who I enjoyed watching TCW say that he suddenly feels very apathetic about Episode VII after the cancellation news for this and other projects (1313) cropped up. Honestly, as I've said here before... I did want the show to end, but I wanted it to do so by wrapping up relevant plot points and ending naturally, not by being suddenly cut off like this.

I'll probably be over it in a few weeks, but right now it still somewhat stings.

 

I agree how it has ended is bad, but Filoni also deserves a bit of blame here, not just Disney. They just want to focus on the ST and their own stuff, which is fair enough.
TCW was being dragged out and dragged out (remember the whole 100 more episodes thing), for no other reason than it gave him a job, I mean how long can you make a 3 1/2 year war for gods sake. While things like the Droid arc were pretty pointless and not needed. What I am saying is that there were plenty of opportunities to wrap some things up.

 

But I think to lead a Star Wars production you have to be ambitious. I'm not going to fault Filoni for having ambition and for continuing on with the show when George urged him to.
