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

Yeah, but I actually went through the history to check, and that piece of information was added by a very senior editor. Which doesn't necessarily prove anything, but it's not just some random anon making stuff up at least.

 

a destroyer is blown up not a consular ship. they have the wrong class. it may be a venator.

 

It says below in the Behind the scenes section that THE Resolute was blown up. I don't know about ship classes and didn't remember that the planet was either sullust but that maybe the ship.

 

yes it was the resolute and it was a venator class so we're all correct.

Resolute - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki

 

Wow I never realized it was the Resolute that was destroyed in that battle... I mean who cares about Ventress being betrayed by Dooku? WE LOST THE RESOLUTE!

 

Wow that legitimately semi made me said.

 

The destruction of the Resolute symbolized the end of Anakin & Ahsoka's light-hearted adventures of earlier seasons.

 

Its kind of cool to see early recordings and see how many of these characters voices evolved over time whether it was through age or they decided on a different sound. Honestly both Clone Wars and Rebels had/have a great cast and I like that they are two of the few shows these days that record most episodes ensemble because honestly that works better for the benefit of the actors at least in my opinion.

 

I think everyone can agree that the VA in TCW/Rebels rocks!

 

1. I thought Obi had witnessed them pledging their loyalty to Dooku in AOTC? Did he not tell anyone?

So if they're "neutral" the whole time and no can find any evidence against them; how do Lucas and Filoni explain how all of them are hiding out with Grievous on Utapau in Episode 3?



2. No idea. Unfortunately, Dave and "the story group" can kill him if they want to.

 

When did Anakin become a Jedi Knight anyway? I didn't know where to post it so I am posting it here. The current canon has no explanation on when Anakin was knighted. They should have just kept his battle with Ventress on Yavin 4 canon and make that his final trial.

 

Believe it or not, there was a thread about this once upon a time.

i believe after the end of aotc anakin was made a knight like obi was made one after the event of tpm.

 

Fair enough, but what did Anakin do on Geonosis that warranted Knighthood? He survived in the arena and against Dooku, but is that really enough?

 

Watch the first half of the 2003 series and then watch the clone wars movie

 

After AoTC; facing and surviving a duel with a Sith Lord was his Trial.

 

You know, I was just watching ANH the other day, and one question came to me (even though I'm sure it's probably been discussed countless times in the past). At what point did Obi-Wan get Anakin's light saber; to essentially bequeath it Luke when the time came? I mean, obviously it was an outright lie when he tells Luke that "your father wanted you to have this", but it still left me scratching my head for the moment. I don't remember if Kenobi simply took the light saber from Anakin after defeating him on Mustafar; honestly I've seen ROTS maybe twice all the way through.

 

Yeah, he picked up Anakin's lightsaber from the ground because it fell when his limbs got chopped off.

 

LOL just rewatched the clip on Youtube. I see he picks up the saber nonchalantly; though they did emphasize that he was in fact picking it up by zooming in.

 

Thank goodness ROTS made it clear Obi-Wan did pick it up. Otherwise it would've been another big issue endlessly debated here.

 

Does leave a tad open for debate; though. Was Kenobi in fact picking it up with full intention of giving it to the future offspring? If he wanted to just keep it away from Anakin, he could've just thrown it into the lava lake.

 

Simple answer is the director told him to.

It does not make any sense in the movie for him to stop and pick up the lightsaber. That weapon was supposed to have been used to serve the Republic and protect lives, meanwhile Anakin used that weapon to murder Jedi and younglings a more natural instinct for Kenobi was to have simply kicked the lightsaber into the lava. Kenobi thinking , oh let me hand to his unborn child later on is not a realistic thought thats like he knew future events as if he played ANH on DVD prior to fighting Anakin like out've Spaceballs or something - plus we know true younglings/padawans have build their own lightsaber and be worthy to get a kyber crystal even. Ezra has to be found worthy himself so this process and tradition did not die and Obi Wan could've trained Luke as a legit padawan if that was the case.

But worse still, is really why he left Anakin alive, you can argue he could not kill but that never stopped Kenobi before, Maul surviving and ravaging across the galaxy should've gave Kenobi much added incentive to make sure he killed Vader not leave it up to chance or the will of the Force which also happened to shifted over the Sith for some time, and the Jedi's ability to use the Force had diminished. So Kenobi is much to blame for the horrors and atrocities Vader committed following Mustafar. He should be living in shame in his hut.

 

Maybe, maybe, he wanted to give it back to Anakin one day?

 

In all fairness, you can't really compare the Sith Darth Maul to Anakin; in terms of their relationships to Kenobi and why he wouldn't kill them. For G-d's sake, he cut Maul in half. What more could he have done to make sure he was dead? And in terms of Anakin, he essentially left him for dead. You see him burning up beyond recognition anyway. What more could Kenobi have done, shoved him further into the lava with a stick?
