Clone Wars Winding Down.

So yeah:

http://starwars.com/news/a-new-direction-for-lucasfilm-animation.html

Not very clear what they're doing, but it's looking like the series is almost ever, sadly.

Sad news indeed, although we all knew it was coming, when season six still had not been announced. I think it's safe to say that Disney is behind this. I mean, the way Filone was talking, it looked like one of those hostage videos in which the hostage is forced to read a message against his/her will.

Anyway, I'm wondering how they will be releasing the remaining material... Maybe as one hour specials on Disney channel? Feature movies (like the one that introduced Ahsoka) will be to expensive, I guess, and also remove attention from Episode VII...

I remember when they started they said they were going to do about 5 years' worth., so they hit their goal.

Oh winding down's fine. It just would have been terrible if they ended it the way it is.

It's gone on 5 seasons already and the clone wars obviously can't last too many years.

Am intrigued though what new series they're planning.

Lucas said 100 episodes and they exceeded that so this isn't bad news or surprising news. We knew it was coming. Can't wait for details on the new show, maybe we'll finally get a live action series.

I just hope we get a different resolution to the Ahsoka arc, and that we get to see what happens to Maul.

No more seasons, but I'm sure there will be a TV movie to wrap up storylines.

Either way they'll finish the big stories. That's the point of Winding Down I take it and not just outright cancelling it as it is.

Not surprised. The ending of season 5 really felt like a series ending, not a season ending, to me.

But I think there will be 1 more season. Filoni has made clear there that there's still a few more arcs to tell.

It's just clear the next season will end it all.

Let's hope we get 20 more episodes, regardless of how they are released. The quality of the show had been going up through season 3 and reached its climax in the season 5 Mandelore arc. So if Filoni says that the best episodes are yet to come, he has my attention 🙂

Interview with Padme and Obi-Wan. Interesting in the sense that Taylor (Obi-Wan) says that most of season 6, if not the whole season, was actually already completed.

It was. Filoni's earlier comments made that clear. I think Disney have just told him the show is finishing, so they will have to make changes to what they've already made to wrap it up- I'm guessing.

I got from Filoni that some of it, but not to the extent Taylor said, had been done, so this is new to me.

I'm a bit confused now. I don't think there will be a 6th season from reading all the news on it.

Not sure how they will bring us these last arcs. TV Movies maybe?

Probably. Or on dvd or something. I doubt we'll see them as weekly episodes.

Listening to that interview some more, they revealed that there are Order 66 episodes (that other video being a major part im assuming), and some more Yoda stuff that we're supposed to see.

Have to have something finishing off the Darth Maul Arc. And something wrapping up Ventress's and Ashoka's fates too.

Can't just have those characters randomly hanging somewhere post ROTS.

Yup. Hopefully we get that, too.

But yeah, I'm sure they'll kill-off Ventress and Ashoka... They almost have to.

Tell that to Shaak Ti and Quinlan Vos. 😛

I still don't know which ending is canon for Shaak Ti. 🙁
