Star Wars Clone Wars CARTOON?!

[Tron 2.0]

For those of you Star Wars fans who won't be able to catch the micro-series on TV, you have a couple of options:

STARWARS.COM:

Hyperspace Members

Twenty minutes after each episode is broadcast on Cartoon Network in the US, it will be available on Hyperspace in quicktime format - large and high quality. There will also be a version with an audio commentary by the creator of the series, Genndy Tartakovsky.

STARWARS.COM/CARTOONNETWORK.COM

Non-Hyperspace Members
The day after each episode is broadcast on Cartoon Network in the US, for a limited time only, it will be available on StarWars.com and CartoonNetwork.com in streaming video format - lower resolution and only available to US based internet users. CartoonNetwork.com will also have a different audio commentary from Genndy Tartakovsky for those who aren't as familiar with Star Wars.

Just a heads up!

Man, in that case I better remember to tape this or something since QT is being a beeyaach lately. Has there been a new, free version released yet?

So watching the new TV spot, is Kit Fisto an amphibian?

Sorry if this is general knowledge, I'm not really into EU anymore, other than the video games.

I just looked at the Cartoon Network site hippie1. According to that, Fisto is amphibian.

[hippie1kenobi]

Cool, thanks. Maybe an underwater death match between him and Jar Jar or Captain Tarpals...you know, for comedy relief.

I guess the site has more stuff up now, I'll have to check it out.

[hippie1kenobi]

So, anybody else a loser stuck at home tonight, such that the highlight of the evening is waiting for these 3 minutes of limited animation?

Just me I guess.

sigh

[ExClub]

You're not the only loser, hippie. I'm stuck at home too, but will refrain from the quick thrill of 3 minutes of limited animation.

Some points I noted:

Mace is fighting on Dantooine. Any significance or just reusing a name for familiarities sake?

Anakin's Jedi Starfighter has similar markings to his pod racer. Why don't the other Jedi have custom paint jobs?


Threepio is still the butt of the jokes; getting hit in the face when Ani throws of his cloak.


Neat stuff...too short though. Should have gone with a five minute format I think.

[Last Halloween]

Waaaayy too short. I don't know why, but I was expecting it to clock in at around 10 minutes. Will the later episodes be any longer I wonder? Great animation. I was noticing the unique paint on Ani's starfighter too. Kinda cool to have that scene at the end with Amidala watching like the end of Empire where the Leia watches with 3P0 and R2 as Luke and Lando take off. Why isn't R2 Ani's mech droid though?

[CoasterNut]

Is it just me or do these people look like drawings from Clerks?
