Star Wars: Rebels
And here's our replacement for Clone Wars. Coming to Disney XD in fall 2014. Bridges the gap between Eps 3 and 4. Looks...very cool. Conceptually.

Revan is the only EU character outside of Bane( who can never get a movie now that Disney is in charge )that has story and marketing potential. You could cram so many characters in to a Revan movie. |

I had super low expectations when watching the first episode. Was better than I expected in terms of story and voice acting.
The animation is horrible though. Absolutely pathetic. Possibly the worst animation for action scenes possible. Stop motion video would have been an improvement of immeasurable levels. The battle scenes are very stiff and disjointed. I could only think that the animators were playing with the plastic action figures and decided that the cartoon figures should have the same range of motion. The Wookies from the second episode are an absolute joke. Before they came on, I was thinking "...well at least there has been no Jar Jar and Wookies are cool." Afterwards I was wishing for a Jar Jar episode. It really was that bad. For me, this show is an absolute fail after Clone Wars for adult viewers. They may have some great stories, but with such horrible animation it's unwatchable. Probably perfect for young kids though. |

I don't understand why they couldn't use the same animators from Clone WARs?

The kid was annoying, and they revealed the Jedi WAY too early. Should have stretched out his reveal. Not bad, but not great. Hopefully it hits its stride soon.

I guess you'll just have to watch it then. The Clone Wars was a pretty annoying animation choice for me as well, but Rebels takes it further. I thought CW was lacking in texture and definition. Rebels makes CW look like a Pixar movie.

It seemed like the last season of CW was pretty dense in terms of the animation...

Yeah, those textures look like a nicer version of 'Davey and Goliath'.

Yeah. I've disliked the animation choice for Rebels from the get go. A serious step back from the more realistic clone wars. It's disney though, and it looks like Disney.
