Major spoilers ahead for the series finale of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. It has been a long and winding road for the story of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. In large part, George Lucas' grand design for the title conflict itself was first introduced back in 2002's live-action prequel film, Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones. That militarized and politically charged time in Star Wars lore was further explored in Genndy Tartakovsky's 2003 - 2005 traditionally animated series Star Wars: Clone Wars, before getting a CG-animated reboot of sorts in Lucas' Star Wars: The …

Major spoilers ahead for Disney+'s Star Wars: The Clone Wars The final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is racing to its ultimate finale this coming Monday, May 4th, a.k.a. "Star Wars Day" ... but before fans can celebrate, they'll have to tough it out through one of the most difficult moments in the franchise. "Shattered", the penultimate episode of the series, pays dividends on everything the previous seasons have been working towards. All that character development, all that time spent in the trenches together, all the many adventures of Jedi and Clone Troopers (and Droids) …

Spoilers ahead for Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels. After the latest episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, I called the lightsaber duel between Darth Maul and Ahsoka Tano one of the best that the Star Wars franchise had to offer in recent years and one of the best in its history, hands down.

Directed and envisioned by …

Spoilers ahead for the latest episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars on Disney+. Dave Filoni may be the one person on the planet who truly understands all the intricate connections threaded throughout the Star Wars universe, perhaps even better than George Lucas himself. The success of The Mandalorian let Filoni play in the franchise's live-action space, but it's Star Wars: The Clone Wars where his encyclopedic knowledge of the galaxy far, far away truly shines. There's no better example of this understanding than the latest episode, "The Phantom Apprentice." That title alone should conjure up …

Spoilers ahead for the latest episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. It's been an interesting ride so far for the seventh and final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. We kicked things off with a semi-new arc of four episodes that chronicled the Bad Batch, focusing on the fan-favorite clone troopers. Those episodes were essentially finalized versions of one that Dave Filoni teased out years ago but brought some closure to that particular tale. Then, we got an ... interesting arc for beloved former Jedi, Ahsoka Tano, one that took her into the criminal underbelly of …

It's a curious choice indeed to feature the return of fan-favorite character Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars only to relegate her to third wheel in what should be her story. Last week's new episode, which arrived on Disney+, caught viewers up with the former Jedi after she fled the surface city of Coruscant for the dangerous depths of Level 1313. It was a fine enough introduction to the character for newcomers and a re-introduction of sorts for fans who have been waiting years for the series' return, and it even featured a fun, …

Spoilers ahead for the latest episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. When last we left Ahsoka Tano, she had been barred from the Jedi order under suspicion of sedition and the deadly bombing of a Jedi Temple facility. Ahsoka, hunted by the Republic's forces, was framed for these crimes by a fellow Padawan, a fact rooted out by her master Anakin Skywalker, who exonerated his student. But the damage was already done. Her faith in the Jedi Order and everything she had ever been taught, was shaken. She refused the Jedi Council's offer to rejoin and went …
