Rivera After nearly five months of waiting and speculating, the Cartoon Network will finally air the concluding ten chapters of the epic sci-fi action animated micro-series “Star Wars: Clone Wars.” A lot happens by the end of the series that beautifully sets up the third and final feature film in the Star Wars Saga that opens in May of 2005. In a nutshell we get to see a lot more of Anakin Skywalker in the second half of the series than we did in the first, which balances the series out as a whole since the first portion of the series showed a bit more of Obi-Wan Kenobi on the surface of Muunilinst than Anakin fighting above. The second half features two episodes on the planet Dantooine where Mace Windu single handedly destroys a Confederacy weapon that is sort of like the ultimate cockroach crusher. It is a bit funny when it is first introduced because the build up to its presence on the battlefield literally has all of the characters on both sides of the conflict stopping frozen in their tracks and this reviewer glued to his couch. | |
