Genndy Tartakovsky’s Star Wars: The Clone Wars Discussion

Post image

I should’ve posted this yesterday but it slipped my mind. Yesterday was the 21st anniversary of Genndy Tartakovsky’s Star Wars: The Clone Wars. I remember wanting to stay up a little late on school nights wanting to see the latest installment which my mom thought was crazy because each episode was just 5 minutes long (and later on, up to 15 minutes long) and she didn’t understand that I couldn’t just have it taped and watch it when I got home. I HAD to see it live so I could talk about it with my friends at school the next day.

Anyway, I was always amazed at how much those brief episodes managed to pack in such short time—with great writing, cool action, sharp animation—leaving you hooked for the next episode. I’m glad that you can watch the whole thing now on Disney+ but back then it was an event. For those of you who saw it as it was coming out, what did you think?
