George Lucas still isn’t done with STAR WARS. The director says he’s making an animated CLONE WARS series for television that could air next year. It will be a continuation of the Cartoon Network series that ran for 25 episodes from 2003 to ‘05.
The new series, which Lucas hasn’t sold to any network yet, takes place during a civil war between the Republic and separatists led by Count Dooku. It will include such characters as Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and be rendered in 3-D computer graphics.
I saw the Cartoon Network Clone Wars and I was very suprised. I was very very good. Everything came together perfectly and the animation captured the essence of the Starwars universe more than any of those high end CG could. The only problem in my opinion was that the 25 episodes on Cartoon network was too short. Each episode was only a few minutes long. I’d want to see a real series. All 12 or so hours of it.
Awesome…way to go Lucas. I want it on ITunes
i love this, the Clone Wars was an amazing seriers and if this is anything close to what that was then it will blow your mind away! the force is definately strong with this one!
Unless Gennedy Tartakovski is doing it, it will be garbage. He’s the only reason the Clone Wars microseries was any good.

Also, the microseries format was the best possible idea. 3 of every 5 minutes was action. when you watched them all strung together, they had more action-per-minute than anything on tv or film!
Aboslutely agree with you, KBPrinceO.
Clone Wars by Tartakovski was redemption for the Star Wars Franchise (in my mind). I’d be sad to see the style and direction change in the new version from Lucas.
Well it would look a better show if it was done in the style of the C.G.I. in the movies. The “Sammeri Jack” look does not fit the motief of Star Wars very well.
