    "Okay, so being who I am it was only a matter of time before I saw this flick. I've been a Star Wars fan pretty much since birth, I just wasn't going to fork over the blood money to keep George Lucas' money train to crappytown going. It seems Lucas lost his golden touch somewhere in the 90s and his projects since then have been getting progressively worse. The Star Wars prequel trilogy was underwhelming and Indy IV was a travesty. If I remember correctly, I ran out of the theater screaming, "is there no God?" after that flick. Anyways: The Clone Wars. In an effort to launch the new CGI series for Cartoon Network, Lucasfilm released what I can only see as the first four episodes as one 90 minute movie for theaters. The plot structure certainly shows that it should have been split into about four parts, or at least two. Aside from the set up in the beginning, there is literally perhaps thirty seconds of exposition tieing up the two halves of the flick. The plot is the weakest part of ... " [More]

    "written by: Henry Gilroy, Steven Melching, Scott Murphy (screenplay) & George Lucas (story) produced by: George Lucas & Catherine Winder directed by: Dave Filoni rated PG (for sci-fi action violence throughout, brief language and momentary smoking) 1 hr. 38 min. I took my 8 year-old nephew to see this movie opening weekend and one of us had fun. As we sat in the large, barely-filled theater, I looked upon him in my sleepy haze of boredom and noticed how entranced he was at the intergalactic fantasia before us. I was saddened though. I wished more than anything that it was the summer of 1977 again and my dear nephew could witness the sheer " [More]

    "Back around 1991 Star Wars fans were introduced to the “Expanded Universe” with the publication of the novel Heir to the Empire. Where there had been a scattering of novels and a couple of animated series that had told a handful of Star Wars stories, this seemed to be different…bigger. This was a story involving all the major characters which picked up well after the end of Return of the Jedi, the first such story to be told. After that a swell of novels, comics and other media were released which told various stories in, for the most part, the post-RoTJ timeline. But there was a sense that these stories would be confined to anything but movie theater screens. That was emphasized with the release of the Prequel Trilogy. Anything that was on the big screen was canon, anything that wasn’t wasn’t. Star Wars: The Clone Wars changes that equation to some extent. While the movie wasn’t really meant from the outset to be a movie but instead was spliced together from the first three episod ... " [More]

    "From what I hear, Star Wars: The Clone Wars is really bad. Bad enough for the king of the fanboys, Harry Knowles, to reportedly write, “I hated the film. HATED IT. REALLY HATED IT.” Bad enough that Warner Bros. had the review removed from Aint it Cool News due to a review embargo — though probably it had more to do with it being so damaging to the studio’s marketing of the film (apparently Warners had no issue with Variety publishing its so-so review on the same day). I’m not in the least bit surprised. Most people I know who used to be big Star Wars fans won’t be bothering to see the film. But if it bombs at the box office this weekend, what will t " [More]

    "I was lucky enough to be able to go to San Francisco on Sunday night for a screening of Star Wars: Clone Wars. On Monday, Warner Bros. took us out to George Lucas’ Big Rock Ranch for an interview with Lucas himself, along with director Dave Filoni and producer Catherine Winder. However, it pretty much turned into The George Lucas Show, and given his newfound love affair with television, that might actually become a reality. As long as it doesn’t become a reality show, I’d be okay with it. Some highlights from the interview include: Is there an entertainment industry inside the Star Wars universe? Why The Clone Wars, why now, and why make it animated? More about the live-action Star Wars television show they’re working on. Why George might only work in television from now on. Some skinny on the next Indiana Jones movie. Read the full interview after the break. So what do people do for fun in Star Wars? I know we’ve seen that pod race, but do they watch movies, play video game " [More]

    "I saw this movie with my husband who is a Star Wars fan. He thought it would be to the calibre of Lord of the Rings series of movies. It was too "kiddy" for him, so the next week we took our 11 year old daughter, her best friend, and our teen daughter to see it. I must admit, I liked it better the second time around. Here's what the kids said about it: " Clone Wars is a super cool movie. We went to see it with our best freind, and we all shared the same favorite scene: when the captain of the clone troopers told a number of droids " You are out numbered. So the droid says" Hold on a sec... 1, 2, 3 *BOOM* " (Look out for this part of the movie. Everyone in the theater was laughing their heads off, especialy the little kids.) Anakin Skywalker is still the good guy in this movie. The Girl in this movie 'Asolka' is a sassy charecter and a great Jedi -to-be. I think (becuse of this movie) I might be a Jedi for Halloween. I have to admit, this is in my mental list of favorite ... " [More]

    "What would you do if the Death Star and a bunch of other Galactic Empire vehicles showed up in your city? Obviously, you’d just go about your business. Continue jogging, or flying your kite, or protesting against China. Maybe you’d get out your video camera and observe the invasion, as if the spacecraft or AT-ATs were Goodyear blimps or a Cloverfield monster. I almost feel guilty asking what the point of this video is, because it’s done so well. It looks real enough that I actually kind of fear for my friends in the Bay area. I love this explanation from Topless Robot: “Over the weekend, the Empire invaded San Francisco. I assume that they were looking for the semi-nearby Skywalker Ranch, in order to kill George Lucas after seeing Clone Wars.” < " [More]

    "Well, it starts like a Star Wars movie- "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…" and then the familiar crash of the title card and theme music. But then instead of the majestic expository crawl the movies are so famous for, we get what sounds like a 1940's radio announcer racing through a lot of stuff about the Old Republic and the Separatist Army on some planet we've never heard of. I've seen Attack of the Clones twice (and I'm not sure what that says about me) but I still didn't get what was going on here. In fact, most of the expository scenes in this movie are so rushed and incoherent you'd need a PhD in Star Wars mythology to get most of the references. Anyway, we eventually get to the planet were we find our friends Obi-Wan Kenobi (voice of James Arnold Tay " [More]

    "Tropic Thunder is taking heavy fire, not for Robert Downey Jr.’s blackface performance, but rather for Ben Stiller’s spoof movie-within-a-movie, Simple Jack. Is this a case of political correctness gone too far? Or does Hollywood have serious flaws in how it portrays people with disabilities? The latter may have been Stiller’s point all along… Our friend Kevin Kelly shares the tale of his journey to the fabled Skywalker Ranch to see Clone Wars and meet the elusive George Lucas. The film, essentially a two hour trailer for the upcoming animated series, gets into some pretty wonky territory when it asks the question we’ve all wondered: What would Truman Capote be like as a Hutt? Karina checks in with what she’s watching. An Elliott Gould retrospective sheds some light on Little Murders and Jean-Luc Godard’s refusal to di " [More]
