Whenever I hear Matt's voice all I can think of is "Then you will die"

[@utuber34500]

"I can't let you die Ahsoka" "This isn't a mission for learning! You either do or die. And that's not a risk I'm willing to share" "Ahsoka I am so sorry. For letting you go, letting you get taken, it was my fault" "Ahsoka! It's me Anakin. Stop running" "Listen. I will never let anyone hurt you Ahsoka, never" *"Then you will die"*

Im asking myself what matt felt when he said this sentence

[@generalsp33d83]

"They brought us back from cancellation" The foreshadowing is real

[@AmazingBreadEdits]

Oh so real

[@jimmyburke2908]

God I miss this show. I'm so glad the actors love the show as much as I do. Thank you James.

[@total_kayhem5193]

Hearing Matt talk about how timeless was saved by fans on the internet, if only they knew

[@andrewstokes6623]

Who else wants to see either Hayden Christensen or Ewan McGregor on this show at some point? Next episode is Catherine Taber or Ashley Eckstein isn't it?

[@dpgamezderek8137]

I'd love to see Ewan and James together.

[@juni6886]

Matt has ALWAYS been my favorite Anakin-and I don't hate the Hayden Christensen as much as the Internet would like me to... Matt just breathes so much new life into this pivotal character. Thank you Matt Lanter for voicing Anakin, and thanks JAT for giving us this interview.

[@professionalnerd4055]

Same! I think Matt and Hayden both did a wonderful job with Anakin.

[@donfnm6559]

@@professionalnerd4055 Hayden really didn't, in my opinion. He just did a very mediocre job. Matt, however, is spectacular. When I think of Anakin I think of Matt Lanter's voice.

[@professionalnerd4055]

@@donfnm6559 Eh, we all have our own opinions. Matt was amazing though

[@donfnm6559]

Maureen Loiacano Yep!

[@DreamerFromTheDepths]

I feel like they both play very different Anakin's, Matt Lanter's Anakin has just as big a place in my heart as Hayden's does, but the versions of Anakin they play are both so different.

Welcome to the Obi-Wan show!

This deserves a million more views then it gets. Both of you are such wicked inspirations to me and a ton of others, thank you!

[@JoeHoganArt]

As always, wonderful interview, James! Had so much fun with the batch of art for this week! :) Can't wait for the NEXT EPISODE! :D

[@daemonvolk4971]

You guys are both awesome! I hope, one day, you guys both work on an official Star Wars show!

[@JoeHoganArt]

Thanks, my friend! As fun as that would be and as much as we admire and appreciate our roles with Star Wars as a brand, I think James and I both really enjoy the creative control to realize our respective visions of our personal projects. So as great as the "official" stuff is to do, there's plenty of pros to the "unofficial" stuff too. :) Besides, every project I've ever gotten to work together with James on has been more than enough of an assurance of quality for me. Knowing that James is a part of it, whether his project or my own, always drives me to deliver my best because of the level of talent James always brings to the table! :D

[@daemonvolk4971]

I completely agree. One can dream, am I right? :) In any case, just keep doing what you guys do! We, the fans, will be there to admire your work. I can't wait for "Panic over Muunilist" by the way! :D Thanks for the reply!

[@depetri]

You art makes Mr. Taylor's episodes even more special! FANTASTIC job sir!

[@JoeHoganArt]

Thank you both! :)

[@naydenlover]

I'm actually crying with laughter from watching you three together!!! The Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid part was HILARIOUS!!! and how you two "Raced" OFF haha and the bonus with Cat and Matt SUPER CUTE!! and the interview so much fun and so great hearing you guys talk about Star Wars and clone wars LOVE YOU BOTH AS ANAKIN AND OBI WAN!!!

[@heather1694]

We need more with Mat and Cat.

[@MCLegoboy]

He was the monkey?! That's awesome! He get thrown in the air and there's this "brrrwaaaaaaah!" and it's one of my favorite things in that episode, and now I know it was Matt. That's so great.

[@shamgar75]

"Timeless" interview 😁 Matt's great-you guys have such a cool comradeship. Really wish you guys had the chance to do one more full season of Clone Wars

[@Makylucky]

They have

[@rnnmrtz6779]

The pear was the best!

[@sweeteepie4ever]

Matt - why do my characters have love issues? James- Because you are Dreamy my Friend!!😁😁😂😂🤣🤣 Damn Right James Matt is Dreamy!!😍😍😘😍

[@snoopyrogue359]

James, I love how you are keeping the show I grew up with alive through these videos. I love them. I was 6/7 when the Clone Wars Movie came out and I grew up with you and Matt as my respective Kenobi and Skywalker. If it weren't for the Clone Wars I don't think I would be the massive Star Wars fan I am today. I was deeply saddened when Clone Wars was cancelled and I'm still am. No offense to the people at Rebels but Rebels doesn't live up to the Clone Wars. Well I guess because of my nostalgia I don't see it that way. But I'm just glad to see many of the cast and writers still care about the Clone Wars. The new canon is kinda sidelining the Prequel era. I'm glad you are still discussing the Clone Wars and keeping the energy flowing. I am enjoying these videos so much. Keep up the good work! The last 2 episodes are by far the best!

[@CosmicTron]

This segment was very well put together James. Appreciate the time and effort you put into each of these videos and giving back to the fans of such a great show, a special thank you to Matt and Cat for reuniting with you on this as well. You guys are very talented, and you James my friend are very inspirational doing what you do and are dedicated.

[@adrianzayee]

(Matt makes HP ref 2 seconds into the convo)Me: I love him.

[@spookydudes5542]

That Butch Cassidy part was great. Thank you so much for that!!!

[@maiaspen307]

Both parts of this video were absolutely amazing from beginning to end! James- you are an incredible interviewer! Matt is a delight! And the ending 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@austinschmid3022]

I keep repeating the Butch Cassidy skit. Love the chemistry Matt and James have. They really show that brother mentality between Obi-Wan and Anakin

[@atwoodsmariano]

loved that Utapau arc SM

[@darthbriboy]

I am now part of the JAT notification squad. Cause I need my clone wars conversation fix. :D

[@JATactor]

darthbriboy thanks so much! Just be aware that for the rest of this year you will get daily notifications for my daily video called JAT 365. It's a short inspirational video each day based on my book. I say this because some people get annoyed by the daily notifications. So glad you have subscribed, welcome!

[@darthbriboy]

You are very welcome, I have been subbed for a while and have listened to JAT 365 on and off, overall it's a good series of videos that make me feel happy. I have been meaning to watch more and I will also be purchasing your book version since I feel it will be useful for me to get more optimistic about the world around me. I do consider myself a cautious optimist, overall. But with JAT 365, I hope to gradually go into the pool of general optimism. :)

[@liasoph9651]

This was amazingggg!! I say this on every video but... THIS was my favorite end skit, so adorable. It was really nice seeing Obi-Wan and Anakin together again :)

[@Monkeydonkey555]

Came and watched this video once I saw the amazing reveal trailer of season 7 of the CLONE WARS. #clonewarssaved. I’m so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@snoopyrogue359]

I was playing the original Battlefront 2 while listening to it. Played as Anakin on the dark side in honor of Mr Lanter.

[@depetri]

A priceless episode Mr. Taylor!! If that wasn't Anakin and Obi-Wan (minus some of his manners) then I don't know them as well as I thought! Waiting for you to interview Matt was definitely worth it!

[@thecannonballz4647]

Thank you, James, for bringing so much joy into my life with your channel.

[@furioussherman7265]

I swear, the only thing better than listening to Anakin and Obi-Wan quote Butch Cassidy is Obi-Wan and Satine reciting Romeo and Juliet.

When Matt talks about timeless getting saved from cancellation... if he only knew

Talking about creating KZbin. Matt should have said, "When last I saw you, I was the Lerner, but now I'm the master.

[@TheHarknessMonster]

James...another amazing show. Loved the Butch and Sundance reading and the shorts with Cat. What makes this show so amazing is the stories from the actors and the behind the scenes perspective of the show. Sheds light on what the feelings of those involved with it were feeling at the time. I know you have several guests planned, but I was curious if Dave himself has been considered to come and provide his perspective on things now that he's free to talk about the show openly.

[@JATactor]

Thanks for the kind words, it's certainly a labor of love to do this show. Not sure if Dave would ever be on this show as he has a lot of hoops to jump through between Lucas and Disney and he may not be able to do that. Also, he is not in LA so coordinating it would be tricky. But ya never know. THX

[@tahutoa]

How old JAT looks: depends entirely on if he's wearing glasses at the time. I love that you snuck in a little Obi-Wan for the "number one" line

[@figdonpat]

These bonus features are hilarious!

[@PadawanAR]

Been gone all day and just now finished watching this. LOVE LOVE LOVE the Butch Cassidy & Sundance Kid. PERFECT choice. Had me *literally* laughing out loud (vs just saying LOL) and my husband wanted to know what was so funny (he was in his studio). Also the bits with CAT were GOLD...the "pear" and the "Angel" one made me laugh the hardest! And I *still* say that Mr. Hogan should turn some of these Clone Wars Conversation pieces into computer wallpapers. I'd slap the Obi-Wan and Anakin one from last time right up on my screen this instant. :) Thank you for all this work you've done to bring this all together, James. :)

[@RayofVibez]

Love these interviews. Hayden and Ewen were great in their respective roles but when it comes to everything else in Star Wars outside the films Matt and James are the definitive versions of Anakin and Obi-Wan. You guys are the best and I'm so hyped for the return of the Clone Wars! 👏🏼

[@ASpaceToad]

Hey James, love these converstaions that you allow fans of TCW to enjoy! Keep it up with these, they're fantastic :) Just an idea, but one that might be very fun for you, have you considered ever dubbing the prequel films in a podcast type series? Maybe have Joe Hogan do art for it, and bring in the Clone Wars cast for their respective parts. Cheers, and again, keep up the great work!

[@Timberwolf410]

Oh my goodness, this was so much fun! Matt seems like such a fun guy! And I loved the Butch Cassidy scene (even though initially, I thought the roles would be reversed too, but as it went on, I got it and it's perfection lol) And the parody scenes made me laugh out loud; I loved every minute of this! And the art, as always, is fantastic!

[@brubafc]

I feel you, Matt, I also often forget important moments of my life. It's even more annoying when my boyfriend remembers everything perfectly and mocks me for having a lousy memory, lol. Matt and James, I love this. Thank you for posting, JAT ♥

[@scottblackman1846]

James as always another great episode, have to admit I'm really enjoying the two parters that you share with use from time to time. Was good to hear Obi Wan and Anakin again, and even better to see how you and Matt played off against each other in real life. Nice to see how much Matt enjoyed being on the Clone Wars and to hear how much, he took in from watching Dee and yourself in the booth when recording. Nice to see Cat pop in as well. Every episode I watch makes me realise how much I enjoyed the Clone Wars, such a shame that you were not given the chance to bring the story full circle, and finish what you had started. Already looking forward to the next episode of the truly amazing conversations. Still hoping to see you over here in the UK, think it's time I jumped on Twitter and start asking those who run cons over here to bring you over. Remember the force will be with you always.
