Star Wars: Clone Wars: Vol. 2 (2004)

It's an impressive series not to be missed by anyone remotely piqued by the Star Wars mythos, however, it borders on camp when Mace Windu goes against 1,000 killbots with his bare hands. (If the Jedi could fight this fantastically, what happened to doddering Old Ben Kenobi in Star Wars: A New Hope?) Hot 'n' heavy battle scenes and dueling lightsabers, antiseptic deaths by the boatload, you know -- cartoon carnage. The voice talent is quite similar (only Anthony Daniels as C3P0 is original) and the sound effects all originate from Ben Burtt and ILM. Hoo-rah! 4 stars.
