Decisions That Shape Our Destinies. The Clone Wars  micro-series wraps up its three season run with a stellar extended final season, which ties up loose ends in a satisfying fashion whilst paving the way seamlessly into the Revenge of the Sith . Benefiting enormously from longer 12 minute episodes, season 3 of Clone Wars  delivers the show's most engaging story arcs yet, explaining how the stage was set for the final film in the prequel series. It begins, however, by giving us Star Wars fans a glimpse at how exactly Anakin Skywalker ascended to the rank of Jedi Knight. It is a neat prologue which wraps up season two's cliffhanger, whilst depicting the (admittedly awesome) method by which Jedi's are knighted. It adds depth to Anakin's journey and is a rewarding moment for the viewer. This is one of this season's greatest strengths - how it explains even the smallest developments between films. We learn how Anakin's arm becomes black, how he gains his iconi...

Darker The Coming Storm Grows. Building upon all the best aspects of its debut season, season two of Clone Wars  improves in every department as it delivers a compelling story, visually beautiful animation and character development which links smoothly with the film series. In this sophomore season, the show focuses on three very different arc, all of which harbour their own individual strengths. After initially picking up from the season one finale, showing Anakin darting off into hyperspace in pursuit of Count Dooku's apprentice, Asajj Ventress, we are then whisked away to a different corner of the universe. Here we witness Jedi Master Mace Windu in all his glory, as he takes on the droid army invading Dantooine. This arc is the shortest of the season, lasting just two episodes and opting to focus more on action than plot, but it does this in bombastic fashion. Witnessing Windu destroy an entire ARMY with his bare hands (and a bit of help from a lightsaber) is thrilling an...

Fire Across The Galaxy. Star Wars: Clone Wars  is a micro-series made up of 3 minute episodes, as such I have chosen to review each season rather than each episode. Boasting a unique art style and some entertaining stories, this first season of the micro-series is a blast. The major focus of this short series is on the Republic's battle to regain control over Muunilinst from San Hill's Separatist forces. Due to the brief nature of this ten episode season, there is little time for character development or extensive plots, but the show nonetheless manages to tell a world-spanning story focusing on major characters, helped along by excellent animated battles. Obi-Wan's ground forces took on the bounty hunter Durge, a powerful foe unseen in the movies but renowned in the Legends universe. The regenerative enemy is imposing and his destruction of the Republic battalion on the back of a speeder is a sight to behold. He may have ultimately been defeated, but Durge was und...

Bridging the Gap. Before the 2008 remake, there was Star Wars: Clone Wars  - the first stylish Star Wars universe animation which told the story of the events that took place between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith . Although it has since been deemed non-canon, this series is short and well worth investing your time into - check it out as I review its three seasons!
