The Trials?

What are the trials? You know the ones a Padawan learner must face to gain the rank of Jedi Knight.

Watch Clone Wars, they are in there I believe. I think it varies a little from Padaqan to padawan. For Obi-wan, killing Maul was enough.

yeh. Obi Wan had the easy trial.

Hardly.

What is this Clone Wars you speak of. Please don't flame for my lack of knowledge.

Clone Wars was the cartoon series. It had a sequence where the Council debated Anakin's path to Knighthood, and they mention various trials: the Trial of the Flesh and Trial of Spirit were two that I remember; the cartoon series follows Anakin passing that Spirit Trial, and the Council mentions that he already had the Trial of the Flesh at the hands of Dooku (his arm being removed in the process). Oh, and the Trial of Courage.

And Facing the Mirror.

Yes. I forget how that one worked, though.

Facing the Mirror? Sounds like the original Never Ending Story.
I think it's the same as what Luke went through in ESB. Where he went into the cave and such and faced his mirror image nightmare.

Then there's the trial of Make Up

Yeah, I just watched the Clone Wars episode...facing the mirror applies to the Test of Spirit. Luke failed his Test of Spirit, needless to say. Not sure about Anakin, though.

What channel is this series on or is it a DVD only thing?

Get the 7day free HS trial and go here to watch them: http://www.starwars.com/clonewars/microseries/chapter/archive.html
It happened in one of the 5 latest episodes.

It used to be on Cartoon Network, but the last time they showed it was several months ago in a marathon. God, I love TiVo.
