Woohoo, official off-topic thread!

Does Grievous ever run into Anakin in the cartoon?

Not so far. I've been keeping track. Last week's episode, Shadow Warrior, came really close as the two passed right by each other, but Anakin was unconscious and being dragged face-down.

Wow really? Damn. Can't believe that they haven't messed up that way. Still, Anakin has def met Dooku in that time. Or at least, he was fighting him in a trailer. So might make the dialogue in EP3 seem odd.

You should see the discrepencies in the novel. Nothing Dooku says, thinks or does makes a lick of sense with the cartoons in play.

This cartoon sounds like a poop sandwich.

Greivous gets his ass kicked by Gungans.

......After being outsmarted by Jar Jar.

From what I hear Lucas is actually pretty heavily involved in the cartoon.

So you're saying we should beat the ****ing shit out of George Lucas?

Yes.

**** him up.

Meanies.

Cancel out the laem.

Edit: God this cartoon is so much better looking than that CG garbage.

Disagree. I really disliked the art style of the older Clone Wars cartoon. I greatly disliked that cartoon in general, though.

Not that the current one is too terribly great, either.

At least it didn't give Anakin a random apprentice. :3

Eh, it's not fantastic art. But it's a cartoon short so I wasn't expecting it to be great. I like it at least. ^^

Its elegant in its simplicity. Its one of the few cartoons I'd say is actually artistic, as is Samurai Jack made by the same guys. Christ that show was well put together.

Samurai Jack or Star Wars? Samurai Jack was awesome. Too bad it didn't end. Would have been awesome.

Tangent: Why do people hold honor to be so damn important?

The art in the old CW cartoon is amazing, at least in comparison to the current one. There are so many little subtle things that really added to the atmosphere of the scenes. The sweat dripping off the Jedi, the light of their sabers illuminating Grievous when he's hanging above them. It was all awesome.

edit- Depends on what you mean by "honor", the term is relative.

I agree. Creepy as shit.

"Honor" as in fighting on even terms. My friend and I disagree on scenes like this where one character cheats. I personally don't care if it is a scenario where one's life is on the life like in sports or something. A fight can and should be dirty.

The art itself is very well-done, yes.

I just hate the art style. It's a bit too simplified for my taste.

I'm not a big fan of the current CW cartoon's art style, either. The attempts at organic 3D just look weird.

I prefer Star Wars because I'm a fan, but Jack was quality stuff.

One of the best animated fights ever imo.

Ah, the aesthetic. That makes sense.
