Finally got to see one of these tonight (Chapter 4?). Too short. Reminded me of watching the animatrix, although it was nowhere near as good as the Second Renaissance.

Is anyone still watching these?

I've enjoyed the previous two quite a bit; maybe I'm just a sucker for mysterious Sith women.

Question: Have Jedi levitated in the Star Wars books? I was surprised to see Count Dooku float down from the balcony he was standing in.

the last two have been good. atleast it's starting to get a bit more interesting

Dunno how accurate it is -- in the "spirit" of the world, but games like Jedi Knight and others have included Jedi "Jump" for quite awhile. You can jump further and not take as much damage falling greater distances. That's probably stretching canon though -- "quoting" a videogame ;p

It wasn't really a jump though... he rose into the air while standing perfectly still, floated over the ledge, and then slowly glided to the ground without changing his posture at all. I thought it was pretty cool...

Luke was lifting rocks on Dagobah. Yoda lifted Luke's X-Wing out of the swamp. I guess Dooku can lift himself... I've just never seen or read about it being done.

the jedi jump is there. how do you think obi jumped in episode 1 from platform to platform and fell without suffering much damage.

I was referring to Dooku, not Obi-Wan.

yes, but I'm saying since they have the ability to force jump and force float down this is just another side of it. a bit slower then expected but just using force like everything else

Vader did his force float while dueling with Luke in Empire.

Yeah, just in time for the first wave to finish in a couple days.

Loved the Obi-Wan vs. Dirge in Chapter 8, didn't so much like the one in Chapter 9. What was up with the super monster version of Dirge? What is he anyway? The freaking HULK?!

Obi-Wan driving his speeder bike up the side of building was pretty neat.

Shades of Akira in the last ep = homage?

Didn't like the battle in 9 but enjoyed the one in 8. the goop stuff bugged me a bit.

Is there any chance they will play the whole thing before Episode III, like at a midnight showing or something.

It looks like the show's a hit:

They are all coming on again tomorrow night (Friday). Chapters 1-5 at 730 ET and then 6-10 at 900 or 930 I think.

Yay!!

well I guess that's all we get till next year.

any word on the DVD release for the first ones? I never could see them due to Tivo scheduling conflicts.

Dunno, could have been a thread on it in the dvd forum.

Actually haven't seen any episodes yet.

New one will be Friday, March 26. 9:30 EST.

it should be out when all of them are released on one dvd

All of the first ones put together is only about 30 minutes runtime. I think the assumption is that they will wait until the 2nd batch is done and release them all together. Then there will be 60 minutes of content + extras...

Copied from this article are the descriptions for chapters #11-20:

Chapter 11
Anakin continues his pursuit of Dark Jedi Asajj Ventress, disobeying Obi-Wan's strenuous orders not to do so. During an intense dogfight, he tracks her through hyperspace to Yavin 4. Obi-Wan Kenobi, who is acting as a General of the Army of the Republic, dispatches a platoon of ARC Troopers to support his Padawan.

Chapter 12
Jedi Mace Windu leads his troops in an intense battle on the desert planet of Dantooine. The Droid Army counters the offensive by the Army of the Republic with an enormous vessel that releases a seismic charge, devastating the Clone troops. Mace Windu finds himself alone and surrounded by the massive Droid Army — without his lightsaber.

Chapter 13
Mace Windu continues to battle the Clone Army singlehandedly on Dantooine. Facing an overpowering enemy assault, the unarmed Jedi Master must rely on the Force as he seeks to thwart the Droid Army.

Chapter 14
On the icy planet of Ilum, chameleon-like Droids are planting explosives in the sacred Jedi Ice Caverns, the source of the crystals that power every Jedi's lightsaber. Jedi Lurninara Unduli and Barris Offee are on Ilum and engage in a ferocious battle but are trapped after an explosion. Yoda, aboard Padme's ship, senses these two Jedi are in trouble and decides he must help rescue them.

Chapter 15
Padme's head of security, Captain Typho, believes that going to Ilum is too dangerous. He tries to convince Yada not to go, but the ancient Jedi Master is committed to rescuing Luminara Unduli and Barris Offee. Once the ship lands on Ilum, Yada sets out in the snow, alone. To enter the sacred cave, he must first defeat a battalion of Droids.

Chapter 16
Padme is worried about Yoda, so she leaves the ship and heads out into frigid Ilum with C-3PO and R2-D2 to find him. As they approach the cave, they tangle with Droid soldiers. Inside the cave, Yoda tries to free the trapped Jedi. The entire crew then must battle Droid forces as they return to Padme's ship.

Chapter 17
Back on Yavin 4, Anakin has cornered his would-be assassin, Asajj Ventress. Now the battle between these two highly skilled warriors truly begins.

Chapter 18
Anakin and Asajj continue their hand-to-hand duel on Yavin 4. Ventress, an expert fighter who battles using two lightsabers at the same time, proves to be a formidable foe for the young Jedi.

Chapter 19
The battle between Asajj and Anakin becomes more intense. Anakin, filled with rage, attacks his foe, the Dark Jedi and ally of Count Dooku, mercilessly. Still, she is a crafty fighter with a few tricks of her own.

Chapter 20
Obi-Wan Kenobi celebrates a successful campaign on Muunilinst, and the Army of the Republic has taken many prisoners. When Anakin returns from Yavin 4, the Jedi Master upbraids his charge for disobeying a direct order. Still, Obi-Wan is impressed with Anakin's bravery. Meanwhile, on a distant planet, a band of Jedi Knights faces a mysterious and powerful enemy.

Plus there's a new interview with producer Genndy Tartakovsky here.

Anyone know when they'll be showing them in Canada?
