Cloning Success?

Posted By RabbitEars

As you may have heardClone Wars 1, the Clone Wars have started up again. George Lucas, who “felt there were a lot more Star Wars stories left to tell” (and money left to make), is further exploring this period of the famed sci-fi saga’s history in a new animated series set to debut this fall on Cartoon Network. The network had already aired an impressive series of traditionally animated shorts dealing with the Clone Wars a few years back, in anticipation of Episode III, but this new series — which debuts following a theatrical release August 15 — enters Lucas’ seemingly favorite realm of computer-generated animation. This type of animation was sometimes overdone in the SW prequels trilogy, but from the looks of these pictures it should work well for this series. It has to be better than Droids.
