UPDATE! Legacy of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Season 6 Coming to Blu-Ray/DVD on November 11.

clonewars1

 

Fans of The Clone Wars, rejoice! StarWars.com has been updated with a behind-the-scenes look at the unfinished episodes of the cartoon, featuring completely new content – and over an hour’s worth of footage!

 

 

From StarWars.com :

 

Get a behind-the-scenes look at some of the content created for future episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars including full episode story reels, concept art and more!

 

The content in question relates to early animation reels of a four-part story arc set on Utapau – three of which were completed, and the third of which they had begun work on, from episodes that were intended for Season Six and the cancelled seventh season. The partially-animated arc can be viewed on the website, but here is a seven minute video, setting up the “rough-cuts.” Be warned, watching Frank Parisi, Pablo Hidalgo, Dave Filoni et al simply telling about these unfinished episodes makes one further lament the show’s cancellation.

 

 

 

THE CLONE WARS LEGACY

 

Learn about the lasting effects of The Clone Wars television series on the Star Wars saga and the future stories yet to be told.

 

Interesting that they used the term “future episodes” over “incomplete” episodes – perhaps there’s a little bit of hope that the rest of the series may be animated after all? Perhaps as a bonus on the American version of the DVD which have yet to be released or even announced for that matter? We can only hope and speculate.

 

 

TCW legacy

 

However, one is left wondering what role Utapau had to play going forward and whether these episodes had any influence on a certain Sith Inquisitor from Star Wars: Rebels.

    Hm, seems we could hold hope alive for another season or so. If pressured enough, Disney might recognize the potential money to be made, like other shows that were cancelled and had special movies made. I’m referring to Farscape and Firefly here.

      If TCW is continued a bit, maybe we’ll get to see some elements from Rebels.

    This is clearly impossible.

    As we all know the prequels and everything about them is going to be ignored by Disney.

    That is fact.

    Pay no attention to The Lost Missions, comics, books, games and this new site.

    The prequels are being ERASED!!!!!

    Now that insane viewpoint is the one being erased as it’s establishment never happened anyway.

    One hopes that one day in the future they will bring the show back to full animation. I think they will but right now it’s about establishing the newly initiated material.

      Prequels are not ignored. Nor they are erased.
      It is stated by Disney several times that all 6 SW movies, TCW, Rebels and Future movies are Canon.
      All 6 movies are cannon. So do not lie….

      Disney will not ignore prequels.
      They spend alot of money to buy the rights to all 6 SW movies.

      Fact prequels were financially very successful and profitable.

      Fact reviews were good ( just look at Rottentomatoes or Metacritic ).

      And new generations of fans grow up watching them.

      Disney is not stupid. They will milk cash cow. They will milk all 6 movies. They want money.

      And they do not care what some hater living in parents basement wishes.

    I’ve said it before… The inquisitor is the son of the dark side son of Mortis. And the son of Mortis will return in EpVII as “The Ancient Fear”, and will be played by Max Von Sydow.

    Darth Maul “thing” probably is the most silly argument of the new canon.

    Damn it, Disney. It would be fantastic to see those story arcs ;-;. The Utapau arc, for example, would be very interesting, they would explore the Anakin reaction after Ahsoka.

      But you can watch the Utapau arc. It’s on their website. It takes a minute to adjust to the animation but once you do, man… it’s one of the best arcs of the series.

    Darth Maul is dead, he died in episode 1, why do they have to ressurect the evil guys, make a new one, but dont give dead ones life again, it is a zombie thing, the dead are dead, and how do you kill the dead, and if you can kill them, are they then more dead than before or what ? 🙂
    No ressurections or clones please 🙂

      Whine a little more…. maybe that will cause them to delete those episodes.

      And Darth Maul wasnt ressurected, he just never died… Plus he has a weird alien biology, you cannot say every injury that would kill a human would kill a darth maul.

      and no,its not a zombie thing… what are you four?

      and now he wasnt cloned… you are just bitching about something, and you donteven have the remotest grasp of it – _ – that is pretty annoying dude.

        I was saying the same thing before I saw the Darth Maul arc. See, I don’t even like the prequels but Clone Wars is pretty good and the Maul arc is one of the best in the series. I know it sounds ridiculous but trust me, it’s good.

          It doesn’t sound rediculous at all. That show is vastly superior to all 3 PQs IMHO. The Anakin Skywalker presented in TCW is pretty much what I envisioned him to be in the 90s, not the manchild psychopath Lucas turned him into.

            Captain Karrde, I have to agree. Anakin in TCW was a likeable character that I could invest in. He was reckless, yet still acted like an adult most of the time. He was arrogant, but it’s not bragging if you can pull it off. Which he always did. So sometime after episode II, Anakin became a man. Then TCW happened. Three years later he digressed back to a whiney man-baby turned psychopath. Matt Lanter, where were you prior to 2002 when Lucas was looking for his Anakin? I can’t really blame Christensen for all of it though…the dialogue was bloody awful. I am not a PT basher. I grew up on it and it has a special place for me. But as an adult who watches TCW and goes back to the films, I have to ask…Why? Anyways, Anakin in TCW was a great character. Point made. Now I digress. 🙂

    Any eps with audio tracks should be completed, and put up on Netflix and on blu-ray

    It seems silly not to produce the unfinished storylines in some capacity.

    Either direct to DVD movies, or perhaps a direct to DVD season, would seem to be silly not to produce considering the huge fanbase and generally positive things said about the series.

    Maybe Netflix will pick the show up.

    Not producing these unfinished storylines just seems like Disney carelessly throwing money away to me.

    Blah blah blah. I do not want there to be a link between episode 7 and clone wars. That’s just stupid.

    I’m hearing and reading a lot about Obi wan spinoffs, I’m not saying I’m an insider but I’m thinking Ahsoka Tano will be in one of the movies if not the new trilogy. I’m just wandering with all of the years gone by if she was doing one of the following even though she left the order:
    -Guarding Leia
    -Became a Sith witch
    -Found other force users
    -Communicated with Yoda
    -Eventually was killed by
    Vader at some point

    Yoda was uncertain of Luke at first, and may have protected her by not allowing Luke to know of her in case he was to fall to the dark side.
    Perhaps this exile was Luke being trained by Ahsoka, the rumours are he has the power to move mountains.
    It is all speculation of course but her character seemed to be saved for further use.

    I think if Ahsoka was in episode 7, it would be weird. First of all (according to wookieepedia) the Togruta species have about the same lifespan as humans. That could be altered in the future I guess, but with current info, Ahsoka would be around 70 years old by the time of Ep.7. And she would probably look it. I doubt she would suddenly resurface after all that time. It makes more sense to me for her to come around in the timeperiod of SW:Rebels, possibly joining up with the Ghost crew, and eventually going down in an act of supreme heroism, sacrificing herself for the rebellion, possibly even at the hand of Vader. As a fan of the Anakin and Ahsoka duo, I would love to see that. Ahsoka is a warrior, like her former master. She was not known for her vast wisdom, but her knack for battle tactics, even at her young age. I think she dies before A New Hope, but not without cause and a whole lot of impact on the overall storyline. I have no doubt we will see Ahsoka again.

    Not buying the season 6 set, but I’m glad to hear it’s coming. It means we’re one step closer to getting a proper complete series bluray box set. I haven’t bought ANY of TCW since the pilot episode dvd just for that reason. Itching to have a complete boxset on my Star Wars shelf.
