Difference between revisions of "The Bastard Goes to the Movies/Starwarsclonewars"

Revision as of 12:46, 15 December 2015

I know this month, I should review more Christmas movies, but what the fuck, The Force Awakens is coming out in a couple of days (as I'm writing this), so I guess I'll have to interrupt Christmas with a Star Wars movie that's not the prequels or the Holiday Special. But yeah, George Lucas is our lord and savior of bastardization.

The 2008 CGI-animated movie, Star Wars: The Clone Wars is supposed to be a continuation to the TV series created by Genndy Tartakovsky in 2003, the same guy that did Samurai Jack, Dexter's Laboratory, and Hotel Transylvania. Though he did not have any control with this movie, Lucasfilm, however, did full commitment to fuck that TV show up, and make it worse. The Clone Wars was a TV show that took place between the events of Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith; even the show ironically aired on Cartoon Network in the years between these movies; and it's a story of how Obi-Wan and Anakin hunt down the clones that would search the jedi knights. So instead of 20th Century Fox, which distributed Lucasfilm's Star Wars movies prior to 2012, saying yes, Warner Bros. took control of distribution, which explains why Cartoon Network and Warner Bros. are owned by TimeWarner. But is it funny that TimeWarner and Disney are rivals with DC and Marvel? But hey, the mouse can take control of something extraordinary, while the carrot-munching rabbit can make audience feel mixed with a lot of things.

So the movie opens up like a '40s newsreel. There are clones all over, and the death star is about to be built.
