Eivion Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Its always had its fair share of bad and good. Even the later seasons that are mostly good still have the occasional boring political arc or Jar Jar arc though I weirdly didn't hate the last one where he teamed with Windu. Just solider through and enjoy anything focused on the clones themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 I'm actually not surprised that pairing Jar Jar with Windu might not be bad. But pairing him with 3PO brings out the absolute worst in 3PO without mitigating Jar Jar's potential for annoyance, so you get the worst of both worlds.

Just solider through and enjoy anything focused on the clones themselves. Those political arcs were garbage. I recall one episode where there was there were all these humanized Separatists who were all grandiose about being Separatists and going away from the Republic. It was such boring nonsense. But then Clone stuff was also problematic to me. Like that time Yoda lectured them and explained that they are more than just soldiers and Clones. Their lives had value and all that. But in the end, was that not exactly the case? Oh, but the chip told them to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Not sure why you had a problem with them trying to make the clones actual people and an end result you knew was coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Clone Wars seemed mostly like harmless fluff to me. Generally liked a lot of the last two seasons, esp. the stuff involving Darth Maul and his brother. Actually, I just marathoned the show this past summer and already can't recall too many specifics about it. That sums my feelings towards the show up fairly well, imo. Average but not too memorable. The most memorable arc for me is the late (last season on CN?) arc with the droids and tiny alien together on a mission. Wow. That was a chore to sit through.

TheVileOne Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Not sure why you had a problem with them trying to make the clones actual people and an end result you knew was coming. Because in the movies, they were not actual people. Lucas made them out to be basically fleshy automatons. It's not consistent to what was set up canonically.

AxB Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 The thing about every character in Star Wars episodes 1-3 is in the movies, they were not actual people. Lucas made them out to be basically fleshy automatons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unholy Dragon Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Justice League Action is official. 11 minute episodes as is the trend now. Kevin Conroy back as Batman, Mark Hammill returning as the Joker (in spots where Joker appears obviously). Animation style isn't my favourite but I'm sure I can get used to it. Pretty pumped.

Eivion Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Not fond of the art style or using the 11 minute length, but I'm definitely interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Seems a bit like a new Brave and the Bold type of show. Not fond of the 11 minute format though. Hamill's got to be getting a sweet deal to keep coming back as Joker right? Or maybe he just loves playing the character that much. That Joker retirement didn't last very long.

The Unholy Dragon Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Welp. Batman: Bad Blood was pretty clearly the best DCAU film since they rebooted it with an actual canon. Not too violent, great plot, great characters, excellent payoff, and a fantastic teaser at the end. So good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eivion Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 That is good to hear. The preview they had on one of the last movies left me worried not much of it would be left intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
