Clone Wars is on Netflix

[bumblemusprime]

At least in the US. And... rrrr... arg... mmm... Yaya was right; it's pretty good.

I'm so sorry.

It hasn't reached the European Netflix yet. But when it does I'm gonna it a shot. I've read a lot of positive stuff about it

[Yaya]

It's the best!

I'm so sorry.

How far are you into it? Because it just gets better and better. By the end I was glad the prequel movies were made. Just to lead up to this.

Four episodes. They wasted the Malevolence. My son was pretty thrilled that the latest ep combined trains and Star Wars.

I'm tempted to go marathon (had eight days leave accrued at work last I checked) but I get the feeling I'll want to spread it out.

This feels like real Star Wars. Seriously. Anakin's line to Padme, "The things you'll do to get me alone," was so much more real than anything in the prequels. Already we've had an insinuation that Obi-Wan suspects Anakin and Padme are bumpin. Hopefully we get a bit more depth there instead of that idiotic, "Anakin is the father, right?" line in Revenge. Surely he knew more than that after fighting a war with the guy.

I'm only sad we don't get installments between Eps 1 & 2.

It hasn't reached the European Netflix yet.

I think there's a browser extension called MediaHint or something that can get round that for you.

[Obfleur]

Sweet! I'll try it out.

Watching season six, the unaired season. The animation in this thing is the best I've ever seen, even in movies. Doesn't surprise me that each episode costs over one million dollars a pop. Also explains why cheap ass Disney wanted to can it. Ace quality.

Oh, and it's the most downloaded show on Netflix now. Disney you listening?

[bumblemusprime]

Apparently they are listening:

Also, they've added the producer of Gargoyles and Spectacular Spider-Man to the brain trust:

Not too shabby. Characters are a little Disney-fied. But better than what I was expecting. They did one thing right. Brought in Dave Filoni, the heart and soul of The Clone Wars, to oversee it.

[bumblemusprime]

Holy ****, the "Get Grevious" episode was just spectacular. I also loved Anakin's first Force-choke.

I'm divided on the best Season Two eps--where they're the WW2-style assault on droid-factory episodes, or the opening 3-parter with Cad Bane stealing Jedi children. Cad Bane is seriously up there with Boba Fett as a badass bounty hunter.

[Yaya]

Was the "Get Grievous" episode the one where he fights Kit Fisto? Cause that's one of my all time favs.

[bumblemusprime]

Get Grevious is the one where he's fighting Obi-Wan in like, ten different settings, including the breezeway between two ships while the ships are breaking apart.

[Yaya]

Oh yeah! That was great. But my favorite Grievous episode is called "Grievous' Lair". Love that guy.

[bumblemusprime]

THAT was the one with Kit Fisto, where he brutally shanked the Mon Calamari Padawan.

[Yaya]

Yeah, that's the one. So I guess it was Season 2 if you already saw it.

I remember now the episode you're talking about. The animation was freakin incredible. Hell, even with the weak episodes, I'm just blown away by the quality of the animation.

[bumblemusprime]

Hey look, the Clone Wars thread has gone from Yaya talking to himself to me talking to Yaya and everyone else giving us weird looks.

[Yaya]

Welcome to my world.

But the rest will come around. All in due time. Bwahahahaha (evil laugh)

[bumblemusprime]

(backs away slowly)

[Yaya]

Bumblebeemusamus is leaving!

[Yaya]

Don't worry. He'll be back.

[Yaya]

Phew.

[bumblemusprime]

Oh good, it's back to you talking to yourself.
