[@orangegalen]

The only thing in my opinion that would make Clone Wars Grievous better is if they had TCW/RotS Grievous' VA ([something] Wood right? I forget), since I really like Wood's acting + the vocal modulation, and CW Grievous sounds like he's talking into a metal pail....

[@fazbearfanatic4358]

I honestly think the clones barely talking makes them much more intimidating and cool. The newer clone wars does a good job at making them more relatable and human, but this one makes them out to be some of the best soldiers. I mean, when you think about it, they were genetically engineered and raised their entire lives to be the best soldiers possible, and that’s exactly how they’re portrayed here. They don’t talk during battle because they don’t need to. They can assess the situation, formulate a plan, communicate that plan, and execute it without saying a single word. It shows how capable they really are.

[@robertogurrola7465]

Modern starwars abandoned the idea of them as soldiers first and foremost. Which is really dumb given it's the whole point of the clones as characters in the films

[@FMK03]

@@robertogurrola7465 They then added the stupid inhibitor chip, which doesn't make sense.

Best part about Durge: the guy was so difficult to kill that he had to be duped into an escape pod and launched into a star to finally end him and yet he still nearly killed Obi Wan and Anakin in the attempt. Honestly is one of my favourite characters of old legends and still got his figurines when they were being sold!!! 😂

[@thedarkknight2221]

My favorite part of this series is sadly what was not brought into the canonical Clone Wars and that is how General Grievous was essentially the Jedi Terminator!!! Why did that have to nerf him so badly?!?!

[@gabrielcarrasco8414]

They definitely did nerf him. But the jedi he fought were weakened from days of running coupled with the fact that he was a new type of foe who wielded four sabers. He had the element of surprise and fear on his side. Dooku trained Grievous, but he's no match for a master if they don't fear him and know what to expect. Which is why we see him run so often.

[@lord2.0works]

@@gabrielcarrasco8414 To me this show canon. For the most part it does not contradict TCW 2008 and even fills in some gaps like Anakin's scar

Eric brought it up in the discussion that later on into the script writing that George went “what if Grievous was actually kind of a coward?”

[@OceanicSix2342]

Yeah another thing that canon Clone Wars or ROTS never really went into but this show did was point out that he was also a brilliant tactician, hence why he is a general (Shaak Ti: “Never have we been outmaneuvered by droids. His strategy is without flaw”). In canon he’s just dumb and cowardly.

[@rodgill9376]

I also wished they had brought back Durge. He was such a interesting character in Legends and was kind of OP too. His backstory offers more context than what we got here. Dude HATED both Mandalorians and Jedi but hated the former much more due to what they did to himself and his mentor. Durge was one of the best bounty hunters in the history of the Star Wars. Also note: his species can live longer than the likes of Yoda's for god's sake! Not only that, but can heal too. Similar in vein to Wolverine but can bring back lost limbs like a lizard. Basically, he was immortal but still can be killed if you know what you're doing!

[@HeatKingMedia]

I remember Dave Filoni saying he regretted making Grevious so similar to Epsiode 3 and not gradually having him start out like how he did here as this terrifying unstoppable killing machine that slowly over various battles became weaker and more cowardly as time went. God I remember seeing this and being so excited for Grevious in the movie and he was such a huge let down. Utterly pathetic. I hated it. And I still do. Grevious got owned by Gungans in the show for christ sake. Honestly, Lucas has great ideas but then his execution for some of it is so shitty. Here you had one of the best villains in a cartoon and then in the movie and follow-up 3D Show you treat him like trash.

[@Aoitetsugakusha]

Agreed. Probably the only character who got treated worse in Episode 3 was Dooku himself. You have a legendary real-life actor playing the role, and he's pretty well-built up in Episode 2 and this series as well, and then you kill him off in the opening scene of the movie.

I remember watching these week to week and only figured out after the last couple of episodes of the series aired just before revenge of the sith released, and I found that pretty cool, I was 10 lol

24:20 Wait a damn second... is that Azula? Be careful Yoda! Azula's masquerading as a senator again!

Still the best animated Star Wars series, tragic that we never got a full series.

Sorta sad that Arron was the only one of them that watched the 2003 TMNT.

[@BlueCheeseLucci]

That show was great

Surprised y'all missed the Akira slide at 15:35, it's one of my favorite scenes in the series

[@adoringfan1924]

Watched these constantly growing up , my absolute favorites!!!

[@JimmyStone54321]

I had this one on DVD when I was a kid and would watch it all the time

[@super8ben]

I remember waiting for this to come on tv each night as a kid. I watched it again recently and it still holds up.

Now we can place this on the tier list.

Love these toons so much. You guys should absolutely cover Genndy's two other fantastic creations, SAMURAI JACK and his current masterpiece, PRIMAL.

This tied into Episode III perfectly. The closing shot of the series is the opening shot of Episode III.
