Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
I know it's a typo, but I still laughed. I never was able to catch any of the S2 episodes and missed the latter half of S1, but I'll probably eventually pick up this and the first season.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
Always waiting for it to end before buying a tv show. I have all of them on my computer to hold me over. If it means anything I hope it does not end for a bit. I like the show, I like the stuff that comes from it. Even the hot chicks. Samde

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
Pretty funny. Where're Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin when you need them?
Mods please fix the title...

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
Well, if you're not supporting the show by buying the DVD or Blu-ray, how do you expect it to stay on the air?
My son and I love this show. There are certainly episodes I like better than others but, as a whole, it's much better than the prequels and this is a must buy for me.
On a side note, we went to Star Wars Weekends at Hollywood Studios this past weekend and they showed clips from season three. Definitely darker than the first two. It seems to be based around Asohka and her premonitions that bad things are about to happen (even forseeing her own death). The preview they showed was outstanding.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
The only thing I can't stand about season 1 is how the digibook is like a millimeter taller than all the others. I know it's totally OCD but still
Oh and, you know, lossy audio.

Mods don't read every thread. Report your post and they will fix it.
I just finished season 1 (on BD) and it was just short of amazing. The production values, voice work, music and direction are unrivaled in the animation arena. The camera sweeps and angles are just something you never see in animation. It's breathtaking.
All that being said, the only drawback is that it's about the Clone Wars. I just can't get excited enough to care. I don't give two shits about Anakin as a character. Dooku? Snooze. Palpatine? whatever.
Now if they did a similar 'toon in the post Jedi universe, I'd be all over it.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
This show is designed to sell toys and video games. I am sure the writers want to create good stories, so they may very well be enjoyable, but this is part of a giant monster of interconnected products.
I hate when people suggest that "buying a DVD" is "supporting a show." When the studios stop screwing over the "supporters" who bought the initial DVDs by releasing later versions with added content that should have been on the originals in the first place, then you *might* have a point.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
Think of it this way: different size cases will make the BD shelf look more like a book shelf and lend it a little more class. Books are all kinds of heights and sizes. So, allow your film collection to have a little character, rather than look like a vault in a shoddy post-production facility in Burbank where all the tapes are uniform and indistinguishable.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
Is there any place where people discuss the actual series? I DVR'd some eps. at the recommendation of a friend who told me they were much more on par with what we wanted from the prequels than what we actually got. So far, he seems to be correct. Some eps. aren't that great, but others are pretty good and a lot of fun.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
I totally agree with this. When I watched the series, all I kept thinking was why weren't the prequels like this series. Basically every decent new character Lucas & his creative teams came up with, they were like "hmmmm......lets keep all these guys out of the actual films". And then the creative teams used them for the Clone Wars cartoons. They even say as much in the behind the scenes featuretes. The episodes get really good near the end of the first series & the Kade Bane episode is the single best think Star Wars related since the original films.
as a hero and rather level headed, as opposed to a whiny bitch. This is a character I could have gotten behind in the moves.
In terms of a place to discuss the series, I was asking if a forum existed in dvdtalk. Maybe people are jus skeptical, with good reason. I was hard to sell, but glad I got on board.

Re: Star Wars Cone Wars: Season 2
The only thing I don't like about this show is the long gaps between episodes. The breaks are ridiculous. 2,3, even 4 week gaps are not unusual.
Seeing as Season 3 starts on September 17, I can only imagine that it will be even worse for this season.
