Clone Wars- where next?

Originally posted by MIŠT
Ep3+ hasn't occured yet, so if we are watching the Clone Wars as a current event, R2's future uses are irrelevant. The point is, if we remove names and importance, we are watching one of the greatest Jedi in the Order chase after an astromech droid, in the middle of a galaxy spanning war, where Jedi are being killed, clones are being wiped out, planets are being enslaved, the Sith are a known threat, Durge/Ventress/Grievous are out messing stuff up and civilian lives are at stake. The only added emphasis on finding R2 is that he holds some important information in his memory.

The Clone Wars is meant to be one of the biggest events in Star Wars, and we are missing out on all the important factors in making it the event it should be, because we are watching very small, isolated events that - in the scale of the war - are insignificant. Even as wsa said before, 'The Republic has been suffereing crippling defeats', we have missed those defeats and are instead being shown smaller character driven stories.

I was just joking

... I didn't like the episode much... the story was.. . meh, I dont't know

... something like "Malevolence", had an impact or at least it was an important matter to the war... or having character driven stories (much better written) that focus on other characters other than the usual (I think Rookies is the best episode so far) it's what the show needs...

btw: there's the fact that Grievous has a spy within the republic forces (that's how he knows when and where to strike), that is relevant to the present war, and that info was given in this episode... care to guess who?

It's not just about Anakin finding R2, but what he holds inside... it just that the way the episode's been written makes it look that way

... and after that we got Jedi Knight Jar Jar

Yep, his name was mentioned a few times in interviews, and he is in the show credits somewhere.

I haven't heard anything about Durge, but I'm really looking forward to having him in the show

That was just my take on what's been happening so far. But future episodes look promising.

I think I read Durge on theforce.net but I can't find the article, it's probably archived somewhere. He is listed on wiki though:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_The_Clone_Wars_(2008_TV_series)

But whether you want to take wiki as fact or not...

hopefully we'll see him in the show

... and some other jedi as well.

Just finished #7, best one yet. Glad to see Grievous kick ass for once.

Those goddamn droids though...

"Dont drop it"
*drops it*

facepalm

Is it online yet?

If you know where to look sly

It was good, but hardly the best (that's still Rookies)

did anyone else wanted Ahsoka dead?
It would've been nice for Grievous to have killed her

Whoa there folks, no linking to illegal downloads, thankyou.

Ahsoka's not going to die until way later in the series, I bet.

Which, frankly, is good. I like her a lot.

It was just wishful thinking

I like her, but her presence does irk me a bit (considering Anakin never had padawan... and all of the sudden he does), she's on the "safe side", at least until the end of the series is near.

to be honest the episode did got a hold on my attention as to how "is she gonna escape?" rather than "is she gonna die?"

Grievous needs to face (and kill) other Jedi, other than the untouchable usual suspects, it gets rather old

Yeah wasnt sure about that, since its on starwars.com and everything, but I figured someone would remove it if it was bad.

Same, when I saw the movie in theaters I wasn't sure how much I was going to like her, but by the end I really ended up liking her 🙂

She's pretty good in the TV series though, which is good, she can wait a bit til she dies, I don't mind.

She might not even die.

I think that what with GL and Co. trying to make this a kiddier show and all they won't spend an entire season getting little kids to like this character a lot, than kill her off at the end. I wouldn't be surprised if she either

A) Lives through the season and dies off-panel during Order 66, making it to Jedi Knight status first and thus no longer being Anakin's apprentice,

or

B) She leaves the order for whatever reason and "disappears" in the Galaxy somewhere. Maybe finding some higher purpose in staying on a particular planet and chilling there.

She's like 13 or 14, there's absolutely no way they'll be promoting her to a Knight by Order 66. It's simply not possible.

The majority of the things that go on in this franhcise aren't really possible..

Regardless, they happen. I think what you mean to say is that it's not sensible, and it's not. But, I think it's more feasible as far as satisfying kids then just killing her. 😐

Okay, they really do a lot of stupid contradictory things in the EU, but I highly highly doubt they'll go so far as to promote a newly-made Padawan to Knight.

Star Wars was always for kids, remember, and the movies certainly never balked at killing off characters.

RotS was the most violent one where all of the well known people that they spent multiple movies building up were killed.

It was PG-13.

Right, because that was the only SW movie that characters died in.

Or, not exactly.

She might get assigned to a new Master.

That's what I'd think is most likely to happen if she doesn't die, yeah.
