Forums - General - So I just saw a Star Wars Clone Wars commercial...

I admit that I've been a bad nerd.  I've totally been ignoring all the Star Wars Clone Wars news because I've just been busy with other things.

Just now I was going through and watching some old things on my DVR and they had a commercial for the Clone Wars.  I had heard about it from a few friends and I was cautionally optimistic but I saw this commercial and I'm just disgusted.

While the art style is interesting, they showed ObiWan and Skywalker talking and they had even less emotion than they do in the first movies!  It just looked beyond horrible, I think Squall showed more emotion.

Nevertheless I am still giddy with anticipation for this movie.



I agree, and I hate George Lucas.

The Clone Wars cartoons were simply amazing...they were action-packed, short and sweet, and added some great story between the pretty crappy prequels.

And then they do this. Take some of the success of the cartoons, morph it into some bastardized CGI monster that has highly detailed spaceships (about as good quality CGI there as in the live action movies for goodness sake) combined with weird looking stylized characters...it doesn't quite fit for me.

And then of course the voice acting and animation is just...meh.

I will see this movie, and I still consider myself a Star Wars fan...but somehow I'm not excited at all about this movie.  Maybe the actual series following this movie will be good, but I'm not holding out hope for any of it.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

The actual cartoon was pretty good, probably because Lucas had very little to do with it.

I suspect that Lucas has been quite involved in this one, hence the apparent craptacular quality that we're seeing in the trailers.

I have no intention of seeing this "Clone Wars" edition.

(in fact...when I actually buy the movies for myself I'm only buying 4-6...possibly only 4 and 5....)

Yeah, I forgot to comment on the voice acting and animation from the little bit I saw.  The only piece I heard with any hint of emotion was the little bit where the chick sticks her head over and says no and the animations just looked so incredibly stiff.

The only thing I know about it from seeing the ads is that the art style is terrible.



It just looks bad to me



In reality its Episode 2.55....

Because the tv series 'clone wars' was meant to be episode 2.5

George Lucas is milking this baby alright!



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

I'll eventually watch it, but from what I've seen so far it doesn't look to good.
