General Clone Wars talk.

You might not like how "Lost Missions" ends...I know I didn't .

 

3 & 4 mostly. 5 was also great.

The Lost Missions contain a lot of foreshadowing and fill in some plot holes imo.

 

What about six?

 

So far I like the lost missions. I shouldnt be called the lost missions tho. It is very informative and the storylines fit so well into Ep.III. I like Fives lil story, It really got me into the season. It means alot to me and to be cannon is even better. Im at the Padame/Anakin/Clovis story arc and I just dont like the whole jealousy think for Anakin. I like how the whole TCW affects Anakin to turning but just the jealousy part kinda ruins it. maybe its just that scene but everything else was handled good. Ill finish it prolly this weekend so im just trying to finish Lords of the Sith as well...

 

I can see that. It kinda hurts the heroic persona that was built up through each season. But the guy lost his padawan, wasn't told of his master's fake death, and numerous other lies were told to him. He's in a war, which is psychologically brutal enough, but to have all this other stuff?! Also, the fight should've killed Clovis! So brutal, but powerful imagery into Anakin tapping into his darker emotions already. Makes his apology to Obi-Wan in ROTS even more heartbreaking, as he can't stop what has already begun.

 

There should have been an episode with Anakin unleashing his dark side abilities in a battle that would allude to what he said in AOTC about how hes, "powerful than Master Yoda...in many ways even" and how hes grown much more powerful since the last time he's met Count Dooku.

 

I think that's covered. He shoved his light saber through a chair against Dooku and choked him before being thrown aside by Force Lightning. And after, it was a little classic skrimish, with Dooku taking the easy way out by cutting the airship and going into his Solar Sailer. Anakin has demonstrated his raw force abilities, and his raw but brutally effective darker qualities.

 

Do you know which episode this was in ?

 

Here ya go.

 

I meant that I was talking about something in the sense of TFU because, if anyone could do that, it would be Anakin/Vader and it STILL seems like he was holding back in this episode.

 

I get what you mean, but Star Wars is still, to a degree, grounded. And Anakin was always a more physical fighter, no matter the era or persona. Starkiller was insane, and very fun, but still flawed and a very good example of the EU ideology, which could create the amazing Thrawn trilogy, Darth Plagueis novel, and more, but also books like the Crystal Star and the Truce at Bakura. So Anakin beating up Clovis to a pulp, and a lightsaber and choke, plus the Mortis arc where he went temporarily dark and showed his potential as the Chosen one, is great as it is. Do I want to see more? Of course, but it really needs to fit his character and fighting style.

 

I think that it's his physical style that tends to get the better of him but fighting with RAW emotion, I think, really does work but only if you don't let go of it completely.

 

Maybe, the man did slaughter many Jedi and Separatists in the TV show and Episode III.

 

If only we'd get the live action thing like what's being talked about in that Rebels thread(!)

 

Just finished TCW Series!!!!!!! I would have to say that season 6 is one of the best out of TCW series. The way they just tie in the whole PT is amazing. they could of taken out the whole jar jar love crap episodes but in all it was good. They explained alot in Yoda and how the empire is slowly taking over. They should of made more riff/friction with Obi and Anakin. In all I didnt want it to end. watching Rebels then TCW made me think alot more about SW in general. Wish I could of watch it in order. I think I will now to get the whole Canon in line. I like how Yoda comes to grip with the force though. the last 3 episodes are left to uncertainty and still made me feel that way even tho I kno the outcome. It was put well together and the animations is by far the best in SW due to how detail it was. Wish Rebels was the same in the line but Rebels is still good cause the both story arc is set between major episodes (III & IV). Filioni has done well with the two. I see why we are so invested into the characters in these series. I just want to watch it all over again...

 

I didn't like the very last episode in the series.

 

Them given us the situation and how Yoda is in ROTS makes it so much more interesting. it leads us and we see him knowing that the force is unknowning and that uncertainty in Yoda holds bare to him. now I hope they do that more in Rebels...

 

Hi Guys, I've purposefully not read all of this topic as I've never seen TCW from start to finish. I sporadically watched it when I was younger and that's about it..

I'm tempted to go buy the DVD Box Set. Would you guys recommend me watching this?

FYI - I love Star Wars Rebels.

 

You need to watch TCW! I started watching Rebels first. Really got into SW like right after they announce TFA was coming out. I started when Rebels started and then watch TCW. to me, TCW is better I think. animation wise. There is more detail to TCW plus it was on CN so Disney wont show alot of deaths and Rebels has shown that so far. Im a light force user so seeing Kanan as a jedi in Rebel is the best and watching the whole TCW and seeing them evolve throughout the series is amazing. to see how they are in ROTS you understand why Anakin is and Yoda and Obi Wan, you know where im going. but yeah I recommend you to watch TCW movie and series.

May the force be with you always...

 

Awesome! Thanks for the response. Well I guess that I'd better get watching it then!
