Star Wars – how much is connected with them, how many memories and expectations in the future. But this time I will prefer to write about what for a long time I bypassed. Namely, about the animated series Star Wars Clone Wars, released in 2008-2014. Clones themselves were mentioned in the new hope, and already in the prequels trilogy they thundered between the 2nd and 3rd episodes. Moreover, this series did not become the first dedicated to these events, even before the revenge of the Sitov was the animated series Gennady Tartakovsky with the same name. Yes, and some of the initial episodes were shifted and released in the cinema in a full -length version with the same name. However, it was practically impossible to separate the latter from the series itself and this was especially facilitated by problems with chronology, which was simply crazy, if not more. What to talk about if the first series in chronology was the 16th episode of the second season, followed by the first 6, full -length cartoon and the first episode of the third season. Therefore, my stories about the first season of the animated series will be very conditional in nature. Let’s start
S02E16: Cat and Mouse A good enough episode stylized for films about submarines like hunting for red October or submarines. Anakin, of course here, that is still a groove. On the other hand, the disregard for orders and the desire to finas the character bring his character closer to him from the second episode. “Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you are my only hope”-Ok, such metaots always delight. True, the entire episode was pumped out about the unreal coolness of Admiral Trengch, but the data as always turned out to be exaggerated. Yes, and Skyuker’s maneuver calculated at a time and was very predictable. It is also clear that the action in space among the creators is more poisonous than on the surface. Yes, and the episode itself is very beautiful.
S01E16: The Hidden Enemy – Another prequel. And to be honest, it turned out to be a very cool episode in which there was almost everything that could be achieved on the surface: a drop of fencing, a little shootouts and counterintelligence activities as the main dish. Unfortunately, the graphone and animation in the episode are somewhat awkward and you can’t look at the same hand -to -hand fighting without tears. However, the main plot is full of Saspenses and begins to disclose clones as personalities. Although it would be better to cut the Jedi from the episode to the maximum and pay more attention to the motivation of the traitor and slightly strengthen moral gray. Given that the series may also offer the opportunity to look at the situation from the other side, the series is just wonderful.
The Clone Wars In fact, the full -length cartoon turned out to be simply slurred and loose narrative. It is not even clear why they wanted to take out this story in a full meter, because there is no both the scale and drama with light humor inherent in films. The completion of the arch with Christophsis, of course, turned out to be very vastly and the Bugagashechnaya sabotage is really funny, but in fact, the excellent completion of a good arch became only an expanded prologue and looked much better in the end format. The main intrigue with Jabba’s offspring caused only bewilderment: and for the sake of such small showdowns, people watch stellar wars in the cinema-of course there is no, where is the scale where the influence on the Galaxy, where, in the end, the stellar wars themselves. Because the salvation of Minihatt is precisely the serial level, which should remain in the series. The music in places was so strange that it simply caused dissonance and ruined the whole atmosphere. However, we can agree that the action was very inventive in places and the characters were quite pleased with their characters. Kennobi, Anakin and Asoka called on my face just a stupid grin, although the shirt design of the characters simply mixed in the beginning. In the cinema, however, this simply should not be released, but as a couple of serial arches – very medium.PS: Especially funny as Anakin and ASOCA drown out their own recklessness – this is where minus is a plus.
S03E01: Clone Cadets That series that can not be missed. The episode came out as a continuous ommes to films about the rallying of sports teams. And even the presented types in the group were so familiar. On the other hand, this is still a military training and the uveal 99 turned out to be a good replacement for the usual wise veteran in such cases. A couple of mercenary coaches came out as if with mirrors of Skirata and WAU from Treviss novels. In general, the whole series came out so tightly knocked down and without sagging, which just surprises. And this design of the training site is my admiration. And yes, it remains only to wish that such a platform is used as a tutorial for any of the Games on the Star. A wonderful episode.
S03E03: Supply Lines Curious series with surprisingly sensible binx. If you use it all the time, then he is even able to cheer up, and his dexterity was clearly increased. The very main topic of the series is very difficult and more concerns the issues of neutrality and non -interference in the conditions of a humanitarian crisis. Although it is obvious that the monarch’s act would cause an inevitable response, but apparently he simply could not do it, though his subjects from such a reckless step will not be easier. In another place, the Jedi gives the last battle and despite the scunteousness of the results, you cannot but admire them. It is amazing that such a strange mixing of comedy and drama works, albeit not very good.
S01E01: ambush may please many. But among this, iodine prescribing to the droids is not many healing people, and this is always pleasing. To be honest, I don’t understand why the Ventress, having heard about the arrival, was the iodine simply did not turn around and flew away with some wildly pathos phrase. And Duku is also good: he tells such a master that it is said that he is not here – you have already been to him on a geonosis and, as a result, just like Ventress only wiped the fishing rod. But in general, the episode was made somehow lazy, and the graphone disappeared.
I looked here dedicated to a certain Wundervafle Arc "gloating" – First of all, in order to command a ship with a similar name, one should already be very fucking, but as we see for Grivus, this is not a problem at all.
And already in S01E02: Rising Malevolence He shows himself as an extremely arrogant commander, and the very fact of the destruction of the enemy crews immediately immediately demonstrates him as a war criminal. But the Jedi, on the contrary, act to save lives. It becomes clear that ASOKI has a certain connection with Pyo Kun, although her tongue fails.
And now in S01E03: Shadow of Malevolence https://hopacasino.co.uk/ It becomes clear that the cosmos for her is an extremely uncomfortable element, and she loves to turn no less than an abundance. By the way, the scene with cosmic slopes has become a moment of beauty in the entire arch that is by no means distinguished by high quality execution. But the failure of gloating became incredibly predictable.
And in S01E04: Destroy Malevolence Anakin and the former teacher are released by Padme and simultaneously finish off the teddy ship. Grivus not only loved everything he could, but also behaved like a schoolboy-he directly reminded me of the stupid villains from the cartoons of the 80s of the 90s. The operation itself reminded me of the beginning of the third episode. But local droids with their comic numbers are simply annoying.
S01E05: rookies just showed the highest class. Here we looked again at graduates from 3×01 – Domino squad. Most of which simply die in "battles of local significance". The life of a sleepy outpost in the very ass of the world is perfectly shown, in which there is a hot fight. And despite all the heroism of the recruits of Coody and Rex, they show the real class of combat training and ingenuity. It is paradoxical that such a wonderful series can be said so little, but it may be possible that it is better to watch this series myself and this series I would advise to attract to this series. IMHO came out in places and deeper than that of Traviss, especially if you link this series with the previous story about these clones. And finally, when the recruits were enrolled in 501, I remembered that they would become with them and even became a little sad: “Echo, Fayfz well, you pancake”.Ark of droids -This is some kind of shame. The animation itself is twisted and unnatural, and the picture of the shade I can’t. The sound of the 90s came from the serials of the 90s simply and did not stop throughout all episodes.
Plot S01E06: Downfall of A Droid was worthy of a minute entry.
And the notorious S01E07: Duel of the Droids It turned out to be simply merged. How merged and almost all the characters participated in this ugliness. And if I am already used to the loser of Grivus, then the slurred actions of ASOKI and Enakin caused me only the approach of the palm to my face. Fu is like that.And now Arc Hanrey is something much more curious, primarily by genre diversity.
However, the comedy episode that conceived S01E08: Bombad Jedi He was failed and, above all, because of the cursed Binx, and after all, at 3×03 he even seemed funny to me, but here he was just a pest of which should not wait for a serious action or jokes, despite the constant attempts of the clowning. The irritation of them completely overshadows everything else in this series, including the capture of the vice of King Hanrey.
IN S01E09: Cloak of Darkness Assage Ventress finally shows why Duku considers it to be his best agent and, with the help of a very fatal plan, he manages to free the king’s vicente all the time all the time of the jerking jokes (yes, Ganrei is funnier than Binx, remember this). The betrayal is again found here, but the traitors also need to follow the language. Luminar Unduli steamed with ASOKU opposed Ventress in an extremely spectacular duel and failed, although the smoothness of the movements still did not get local animation.
And in the next series S01E10: Lair of Grievous The main loser of all the confederations was rehabilitated – Grivus. Kit Fisto with his former Padawan in the pursuit of Ganrey, find themselves in the den of General separatists. For Grivus himself, all this turns out to be another test of forces from Count Duku and, apparently, dealing with all enemies and forcing a member of the Council of the Order to flee, Grivus confirmed his professional accuracy, although I never noticed the connection with the leadership data of the commander. There was a good swording again here, and Grivus ceased to be such a sucker. It is interesting, by the way, the lair Grivus and in itself, at the expense of all sorts of trifles and nozzles. And with a score of 2: 1 this arch becomes good
Pirate arch turned out to be an incredibly bitten spectacle. The best characteristic that can be given to this is humorous fan fiction. And what is all in place: the characters completely falling out of their characters falling into somnic and inconvenient circumstances saved by the character, which are in the end of the author’s arbitrariness irritating to everyone.
All of themselves funny pirates ridiculously capture the duke in S01E11: DOOKU CAPTURED And the funny kennobi and Skywalker humor the entire series in the end replacing the glasses with sleeping pills, so that in the next series
S01E12: The Gungan General It turned out that in fact they swallowed sleeping pills – what? The wildest plan of the pirates, the wildest shoots as if forgetting about the strength of a jedi. The wildest ja jah saving everyone at the end (he is good here by the way and in place). To be honest, I liked to watch such nonsense, but only this does not have a relationship to the wars of clones and famous characters. Ah yes Indian disco at the pirates detected.Arka Ailes second just beautiful and to understand this enough to look at the first shots of the series
S01E13: Jedi Crash With a simply delightful battle in the atmosphere of the planet, and in the course of the series, admiration for the beauty unfolding on the screen only grows. The landscapes of the peaceful planet simply reminded me of the steppes of South Siberia, the swaying silver grass, soil roads among multi -grass and delightful expanses opening from low peaks. The creators of the series managed to remarkly convey all this, and behind the stunning visual design, not the strongest plot manages to work in full.
However, already in S01E14: Defenders of Peace, Where there are no more wonderful beauties, you begin to pay attention to protractedness, predictability and simply the boredom of the plot about the “Tolstoyans” who will have to take the weapon in his hands, and the character of the local elder turned out to be just a blinded retrograde. It is also possible to note a certain originality of local nanica nanica and improved animation of faces, which is especially noticeable in the character of seconds in contrast with old heroes. Although, despite the good image of the Aila, the character himself was practically not disclosed compared to the same Luminar in one of the past episodes.
S01E15: Tresspass -Eeeee … A great example of a series of magnificent on the eye and even with some plot, but completely empty. Snow and snow storms turned out to be simply perfect here, like a person who fell into snowstorms, I simply felt the breath of winter in the middle of a summer evening. Senator from Pantor – Schuchi is just a nyashka and I began to seriously perceive all the fans of this heroine, she didn’t only need to go here and attend the screen. However, the plot itself that the problems of the sheriff are not worried or excited, just by – neither the heart nor the mind.
Biological weapon Personally, it seemed to me some incompetent from the emotional side. And two episodes for her were clearly not enough. As a result, Saspens did not, and the action was not absorbed.
Nevertheless, the assault on the secret laboratory in S01E17: Blue Shadow Virus I liked it as an example of a clear teamwork and thoughtful actions. Although the very fact of the location, for a minute, a secret research object with an extremely unstable boss on NABU, and not somewhere on the territory of the KNS or for neutrals, makes you think slightly about the logic of what is happening, because Traviss has used the moment with biological weapons more carefully. And if I could understand the virus for killing clones, then the virus for killing everyone indiscriminately carries a little bit.
And now S01E18: Mystery of A Thusand Moons It becomes a continuous covers of events – from such a density of what is happening at times, balls begin to call in rollers. And again, problems with logic – the device of separatists on your own planet was needed for what, why, why? All these questions hang in the air. But I liked the characters as old – the same Anakin simply tore the metal, and ASOKA showed her character, so the new ones – I just liked the little boy. Except for one – a representative of Binx should have long been shot for wrecking. The question arises of why Jah Jah was good for pirates, not bad in Toydoria, but just ran out at Rodi or here? Why is it so? In general, again, I repeat well, but there are not enough stars from the sky.
Rilotsky arch – This is just a great completion of the first season. It is especially remarkable in it that the change of characters, the scenery from series to series, does not prevent the arca from maintaining structural integrity. The arch itself closely adjoins Toydorian and, one might say, is even a single canvas. Also, the pluses to the arch are almost complete absence of sagging and protracted moments and decent technical performance – no megracos or miracles of animation, but everything was done tight.
The very first series S01E19: Storm Over Ryloth is the first purely ascocentric episode. Of course, the newly-minted Padavan Skywalker has been present in the plots more than once, but her role was limited to the support team or a character-function. Here, the whole series tells about ASOK Tano and the viewer finally gets the opportunity to look at this heroine more closely, take a closer look and try to understand. It becomes clear that ASOKA picked up not the best qualities of her teacher and on the arrogance of an excellent student from a pilot film gradually rushed the shell of stubbornness and pride. And having realized all this after the loss of almost the entire squadron, ASOKE has to understand that in responsibility it is not only to accept its mistakes and understand them, but also to correct them in the future. Actually, the episode itself is nothing special, but it finally allows you to get to know ASOK.
And now S01E20: InnoCents of ryloth Raises the bar of the series to a new height. It was clearly shown that by creating the army of the Droites of the KNS did not think about humanity and reduction of losses, but was counting on absolute dull devotion and diligence. Actually tactics used by droids to protect air defense is not something new on Earth, but in DDG we saw it for the first time. He will hide with Vesker and Boyle only emphasizes the differences between clones and droids and again brings something to Travissovsky. And by the way, I thought that the clones are slightly older than this girl, and peers for ASOKA – although it is probably better not to think about it. By the way, Cody has already become a real returns of light swords for Kennobi. And the final fate of the team droid is quite obvious and the Lynch crowd of the villagers was deserved, although he was just a car.
S01E21: Liberty on Ryloth completes all this multi -part narrative. First of all, Windows, he is a stupidly steep Jedi, able to make out a whole column of iron for spare parts and do not even sweat. Secondly, the senator from Rilot was specially made by such a defiant hostility or so that Sindullah looked better against his background. By the way, the head of resistance himself managed to bargain a lot, having such ugly cards in his hands. Although his demand for the withdrawal of Var from the rilot was a little puzzled: and what will prevent the other with a droid to the other to prevent the other for a week in order to arrange terrible punishment for the inhabitants of Rilot. But on the other hand, the KNS already squeezed the rilot to the dry. Wat Tambor turned out to be not just a bastard worthy of a loop, but also a greedy dull bastard, because so captured this is clearly you need to have a special talent. In any case, the blockade was broken and the fleet was scattered, the planet was liberated, and the capital escaped destruction. And at the end of everything, even a certain variation of the parade from a ghostly threat.
And what can be said in the end throughout the first season of the animated series. The fact is that this series is the best enemy to itself. A number of wonderful arches, good characters and interesting finds are simply lost behind the overall fragmentation of the narrative. In fact, the first season is a torn story about an incomprehensible lump, because some kind of general concept, seasonal arch or protagonist is simply not observed. For example, ASOKA Tano, previously unknown Padavan Anakina Skywalker, was introduced: at first glance, a classic didactic character, whose eyes should observe the events of the series and through the lessons and trials of which is an uncomplicated moral and message of the series. However, the authors of the series almost immediately send all conventions on dick and give out exactly one, one ascocentric series for the entire season. No, of course, I am very happy to look at a variety of clones – by the way, they turned out to be really interesting, look at the leaders of the Confederation – no matter how lousers they look, look at the whole constellation of the Jedi and various battles “For the huts of the forester” – but I expected not this. Another series was lucky with dubbing and if the translation itself in places can be doubtful, then hearing the official voices of duplicators from episodes is very pleasant. It was amazing in this “children’s” series that children’s moments were failed primarily, because for many children the series is simply bored. Humor is doubtful and flat. And on the technical side, the series itself is not a good God: and sometimes beautiful designs of locations and cosmic battles appear, but the animation is wooden, the movements are twisted, and the design of the characters in places is simply wretched (Alien was especially affected), plus the problems of the graphics problems simply shut up stupidly over -over -over that the music was completely inappropriate and ruined the entire atmosphere of the atmosphere. In general, my main complaint to the series is that the series itself is essentially not visible: and as it is not paradoxical, the series is most reminiscent of EU SW, because, as the latter seeks to embrace everything and more in the end, becoming a banal set of various stories and characters. Most of all, it reminds the jeweler began to grave precious stones, but the charter on the way simply drove the stones against raw stones into a piece of stone and said that the final and conceptual work of art. So the first season of the first season of the wars of clones was just a shaft, but I personally liked it, more than not. Will I recommend watching this series – I personally would advise it to look at its lovers of space operas and cosmic science fiction who know the ZV in the format of films, because the deep connoisseur of the ZV will spit strong.The best series are: Salags, under the cover of darkness, hidden enemy, innocence of Rilot And Hostages;And the worst episodes are all Arka droids, like a cool Jedi And perhaps all.
