ANIMATION – Genndy Tartakovsky’s Awesome Clone Wars Animated Cartoons

The Simpsons Quote:

Comic Book Guy: Worst Cosmic Wars ever! I will only see it three more times. Today.

So, more action-adventure cartoons from me, what a surprise! All right, so today I’m going to be talking about Star Wars: Clone Wars animated 2D directed by Genndy.

You can either watch the video or read the transcription below.  There’s a link an embedded video later down this post with a fantastic Jedi fight scene:

What is This?

I like these. My kids love these! This is the original Clone Wars animated cartoon. It’s all 2D. It was directed by Genndy Tartakovsky. Originally they were just webisodes on Cartoon Network.

And, by the way, Genndy was the director of Hotel Transylvania and the creator of Samurai Jack. So – but he’s directed quite a few things, and one of the things he directed was this.

The art, the designs for these cartoons are incredible.

The first series of web episodes, they were just flashy. You got to see the Jedi do stuff that you only dreamed – let me put it this way, the movies didn’t quite capture how awesome Jedi were in this cartoon.

But these, they’re really dramatic, and it’s really exciting, and I love the designs, and it’s really flat. This is what 2D animation can do, and how exciting it can be, and it’s fantastic. It really is a great, great cartoon.

The Second Series

Then, they were able to do another set of web episodes when the – I’m not sure when, after Attack of the Clones? The first ones where done before the Attack of the Clones live action movie came out, and the second one was after the Clones movie came out.

These things were  supposed to tie into Revenge of the Sith. This is much better than Revenge of the Sith.

It turned out that this is just a fantastic animated cartoon, and, again, fantastic artwork. The action is incredible. I can’t recommend these cartoons enough.

My Kid’s Reactions to These Cartoons

My wife sets up movie nights for my kids, right? So, they tend to pick stuff to watch and, very often, one of my sons picks this series to watch.

To them, this is Star Wars. They don’t watch the live action, they don’t watch any of the cartoons, they don’t watch anything. But this, this, to them, is Star Wars. It’s really interesting.

Have You Watched This?

Star Wars fans you’ve probably seen this already. You probably own this already. If you don’t own it, you’re missing out. This is really, really, fantastic. This is what Star Wars should have been, right, at least the first movies?

So, yeah, I highly recommend Star Wars: Clone Wars if you haven’t seen it.
