Why The Clone Wars Is Star Wars At Its Best

[@NaterTot]

Thanks, everyone for the MONSTROUS support. I'm working on part two as well as a full review for the cartoon The Clone Wars. I hope you all continue to support my videos and be sure to follow me on TWITTER @the_natertot Look forward to making more awesome videos and talking with you all! :)

[@captrex7153]

Nater Tot Ima be honest my favourite piece of Star Wars content is easily the Clone wars, and my favourite show/movie is also you guessed it the clone wars. Never have I ever watched anything else like the clone wars weather it’s a movie or show.

[@MinskyDoxsky]

hey man you should mention subscribing more cause I totally forgot; tell you said something. My bad.

[@nathanivey4855]

I’m looking forward to part-2 of The Clone Wars video you are working on. I couldn’t agree more with you in this part-1 video. Ahsoka Tano is easily my favorite SW character (with Anakin and Luke battling for 2nd place). And, there’s a good reason for why Ahsoka is my favorite. My #1 complaint with Rey in the sequel trilogy is how her character development is sorely lacking when she is compared to Ahsoka Tano. Of course, this is only my opinion. But, I wish we would have seen more development of Rey throughout the sequel trilogy. Kylo Ren got better character development. Maybe someday we will see a similar approach as The Clone Wars took for a sequel trilogy animated series set prior to episode 9 so we can see the sequel trilogy characters develop more. The Clone Wars made me love the prequel trilogy on a whole new level (flaws and all). I hope to see something similar happen for the sequel trilogy (flaws and all).

It's no coincidence that almost all of the best moments in Rebels revolved around plots or characters introduced in Clone Wars. Keep these coming please

[@NaterTot]

Oh, without a doubt. They work beautifully in sync together. I think a lot of that goes to Filoni and the fact so much of the shows (both of them) were mapped out. I think this really helps. It's a wonder why Disney didn't use this formula. I definitely plan on making more. I'm hoping to have some sort of success with this video. As I've mentioned, this was extremely time consuming and I'm hoping it gains views to make it worth the time. I guess we will see in the coming days. Hopefully enough people share and support! Thanks for the compliment though! :)

@@NaterTot Rebels had its moments. But it had a lot of flaws too. Honestly it mostly feels like a missed opportunity to me. I guess I was just wanting Rebels to be the 'Clone Wars' of the original trilogy, and that just isn't what rebels was or wanted to be.

[@jwilson732]

Every generation has “their Star Wars,” and I was the target demographic for the Clone Wars whenever it came out, and I am so thankful for that because Star Wars: The Clone Wars became my Star Wars. My dad was a big Star Wars fan as he grew up with the original trilogy. My older cousins grew up with the prequel trilogy, and now my younger cousin is growing up with the sequel trilogy and Rebels. Star Wars has broken generational barriers with its amazing stories, and allows my 52 year old dad to have a conversation with my 7 year old cousin because they’re both extremely passionate about the subject.

[@BloxWheels]

I was targeted toward rebels, which led me to end up watching The Clone Wars after the series ended in search of something somewhat similar, I have my nostalgia with both of them even though most people look down on rebels. I always remember watching the Rebel's recon episode recaps on KZbin after watching an episode after it came out and seeing the teasers for the next episode. Probably some of my fondest memories in terms of Star Wars, and heck maybe even television in general. The sequels don't really give me the same feeling as those shows or the rest of the movies, almost sort of pretend it didn't happen and act like there was nothing else after ROTJ.

[@justsomeguy1014]

It was going to answer questions like how did Lea remember her mom. It was going to be tied in with the clone wars, video games like 1313, force unleashed, the real EU. There was 50 scripts already made. The show was going to be like the Noir movies from the 1940’s. It was going to be a more talkative show than action show. It was going to be an hour long.

[@paulk.dicostanzo2279]

The Clone Wars was something I only discovered just recently, and was pleasantly surprised. As far as fleshing out the friendship between Kenobi and Anakin, it does a great deal. Though when I had only seen the prequels, I had always believed their relationship was inherently complicated. Kenobi was simultaneously Jedi instructor, the only father figure Anakin ever knew, and best friend. In addition to their relationship getting off on very rocky ground. To be any one of those things, even under the best of circumstances, is difficult enough. So getting the closer look through Clone Wars has been very helpful, and it really smooths things out as they never were on the big screen.

[@NaterTot]

That's fair. I think that's something Lucas sent up himself that he didn't always work out too well. Like you said, it was complicated but I don't think there was enough put on screen to show that relationship. This is also, like I mentioned, where CW is unfairly at benefit. Having 121 episodes (I believe it is) gives them far more time to develop that relationship. Now when I go back and watch the prequels, it holds up far better and I have a greater understanding of their relationship. I'm glad you finally found the show! It's one of my faves.

[@paulk.dicostanzo2279]

Nater Tot Foremost, thank you for the personal reply. That is always appreciated! I think you’re completely correct. In depicting the necessary character development for those two, there never was the screen time available in the films to do it any justice. In addition to having the sheer screen time afforded to Clone Wars developing Anakin’s and Kenobi’s evolving relationship, they did a few other things extremely well. The writers made it so that each of their Clone Wars depictions were strongly in character, and that they felt congruous with the films. Catching that tone and flavor, in a different medium no less, is like aiming at a moving target. Furthermore, they managed to make their relationship feel believable, relatable, and very human. Relatively speaking to the operatic drama inherent to all Star Wars, of course. That is no small accomplishment. Besides, Clone Wars - in so far as I’m concerned - gets a tremendous vote of confidence having Liam Neeson reprise his role through voice over. That all being said, you do fantastic work. You and HelloGreedo are my Star Wars go-to. Always thoughtful, measured, fair and with a clear appreciation for nuance. Keep doing what you do!

[@NaterTot]

Paul, I always try to make everyone of my comments authentic and me. Engagement is huge and plays a big part into channel growth. It's also a big part of what I want this channel to be about. The celebration of ideas, stories, etc. That's why, for the most part, I try to stay relatively optimistic in my dissections (with the occasional joke here and there to break up the long paragraphs). As for as the HelloGreedo comparison goes...that means an absolute ton to me. I had hoped that he would see this video (including me even tagging him in this video) to get some constructive criticism from him and even pick his brain. The comparison alone, while completely unjustified (in my opinion) still means the world to me. These videos are time consuming and come with immeasurable amount of doubt. You never know when you could pick the wrong fight, piss off the wrong people or construct a video that nobody watches. I've done all three. I'd love to do this for a living, like HelloGreedo and those I've grown to really appreciate. All I can do is keep working hard and hope that work is seen. I hope you stick around, share my content where you feel appropriate and continue enjoying yourself! :)

[@paulk.dicostanzo2279]

Nater Tot I tell you, as a fellow creator - in my case podcasting - I know the process which you’re experiencing. Also as a writer/editor, I have reached out to do many an interview. One of the biggest things I have learned, including contacting those whom I personally admire, is to never be coy. While there are those who don’t respond for any number of reasons - including the message ending up accidentally in a spam box - you’d be surprised how many actually do respond. I believe HelloGreedo accepts messages via his channel’s Facebook page. Contact him directly, ask him to take a look when he has the chance, and if I’d be ok to pick his brain at some point. So long as you’re professional as well as concise, and he indeed sees the message, he will reply. I don’t believe his demeanor on camera is anything different than who he really is off screen - minus the bucket. Besides, it’s a big compliment being approached in that way. No doubt he spent his own time coming up and out of the KZbin wilderness. Send it off, and see what happens. If it doesn’t happen, that’s ok too. If you’re doing good work, chances are you’ll cross paths at some point.

Last Rookie It felt like it was a continuation of what the prequels did fulfill, but I do agree with that to some degree (rhyme not intended), in that it did fulfill some ideas or other things that the PT did not. Or rather could not, due to time constraints for the films. Things such as Qui-Gon teaching Yoda about the ability to retain consciousness after death, further deepening the relationship between Skywalker and Kenobi and the tragedy of Anakin Skywalker, more depth and character to the Clones and the attachment the audience felt towards them only to feel deep sadness when they are given the order to turn their blasters on their Jedi Generals, and so on.

I'm not sure kylo was better done at all. The potential was there, but unlike Anakin, we don't get to see really why Kylo is the way he is. His father was absent, sure. Anakin however sees his mother after she had been brutally killed. After leaving her as a slave as a kid, theres tremendous amounts of guilt we can infer from that. But kylo? ehhhh.

[@cwgodzilla]

Tali De I can see that. And also want to correct any potential misreadings that I don’t like Anakin of Rey. I liked Rey and thought Anakin was far more intimidating than Kylo, and had a better fall. But I do think Kylo ends up a stronger character, but also think that’s largely due to drivers portrait

[@Andrewtherapper.]

cwgodzilla I’m surprised anyone prefers Kylo over Anakin especially with all the character building in the Clone Wars. From the council outright deceiving him that Obi Wan died to “test” him to expelling his Padawan from the order there are so many reasons for Anakin to have anger against the council. Kylo’s motivations were cool but felt one dimensional to me.

[@cwgodzilla]

Andrew the Rapper I can definitely see that, and I also thought Anakin was far, far more threatening than Kylo. I think it’s a difference in tastes, acting styles, and evolution over films and the animated series.

[@Obi-Wan_Kenobi]

I think Anakin was a far better character than Kylo Ren. With Anakin's story, you can know exactly why he turns to the Dark side and exactly why he turned back to he Jedi. It's clear and defined and he fall has clear moral lessons about not succumbing to anger, hate, desperation, and fear. Kylo Ren on the other hand never had decisive characterization. You never know why he turned to the dark side, why he's mad at his dad, why he does anything. He kills his dad but can't kill his mom. He want power but also want to teach Rey for some reason that's never explained. He kills Snoke but still want to take over the galaxy. Kylo Ren is supposed to be conflicted but they never do a tell you who he's conflicted. Ultimately, Kylo Ren just does some good things and some bad things but there is no clarity in any of his actions. For some reason people think he's a great character but I think he's the exact opposite. The new writers just made him do whatever they wanted him to do and they said this was "conflict" within him. It's not conflict, it's sloppy character writing and it's inconsistent. You never know Kylo's motivation at any point in the movies except for maybe at the very end when he turns good. Anakin on the other always had very clear motivation and you understood every action he took. There is really nothing to Kylo Ren's character. No characterization, no clarity, and no motivation. Anakin is the better character, not Kylo Ren. (I think Adam Driver might have been a better actor though so people are tricked into thinking Kylo is a better character because of this.)

This show is sooo good. He ain't lieing. I binged almost a whole season a day during break

[@MatGreten]

Thank you so much. You've something crystallized for me. For all three sequel trilogy movies, people have been surprised that I've enjoyed them so much. This is why. I've saying they go well the books, comics and games, but the truth is that they've been hitting on themes from Clone Wars and concluding threads in this series. It truly is the clone wars that cemented my love for star wars during the same time that the new movies divided many. These are a must watch.

I agree 100% and I am 47 and have been a fan since 1977. So i am not one who grew up with these but saw them as an adult and i agree they are the best. Anakin and Ahsoka are my favorite characters in the entire saga.

[@millabasset1710]

Good to know some original fans are still watching Star Wars. I assumed most Boomers and Gen X dropped it and Star Wars became mostly a Millennial thing.

[@SRosenberg203]

@@millabasset1710 Not quite true. My dad (68) loves Star Wars, and I went to see Rise of Skywalker with him yesterday. Though, he's of the generation where "Cartoons are jut for kids", so I don't imagine I'll ever be able to get him to watch Clone Wars :(

[@claytonedmonds1070]

this is absolutely great!! can't wait for part 2!!

[@NaterTot]

Thank you so much! Hope you stick around for more and share where you can! :)

[@duckdictator6531]

I am glad that I am not alone in this opinion. I have felt that The Clone Wars is the best Star Wars content out there for a while. You really put my opinion into words better than I would ever.

[@SuperUnknownPerson]

i would love videos on clone wars, there is so much to talk about it’s such a good ass show ! looking forward to it, subbed

[@NaterTot]

I agree! I hope you check out some of my other videos and keep supporting!

[@SuperUnknownPerson]

Nater Tot awesome looking forward to it!

[@beanieguitarguy4070]

Unfortunately, those “First Three Films” nerds would NEVER “lower themselves” to watch a cartoon. It’s clearly bad if it’s animated.

@MC Gaming Opinions are meant to be expressed, genius. Telling people to shut up because they don't agree is just immature.

@MC Gaming no. the sequels are bad. end of discussion.

I love that moment at 7:33 where the magna guard gets worried about the outcome of the fight just by his movements

[@luketaylor7132]

I was just thinking this, Anakin is perfect in the clone wars and you explain why, excellently. It's amazing that the character development and semi-deep ideas in the Clone Wars even happened considering that it was aired for cartoon network. Nice job my friend.

[@Slaterybooker]

"The Clone Wars" did a lot to flesh out diversity in Star Wars.

“Part of me would love to see an Ahsoka Tano live action series, but part of me fears disaster would occur.” Well, I got news for you buddy.

This series HIGH key slaps and I would love a part two
