There’s just something about “Star Wars” that brings out the geek in people. When I recently attended an advanced screening of “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” I kept seeing a blue light flashing out of the corner of my eye. Turning to look, I was surprised to see the source – a $119 light saber (available from Toys R Us. It was so cool I had to check it out). But the biggest surprise was yet to come. The person wielding the “toy” was a man, probably in his mid-40s, dressed as Obi-Wan Kenobi. Ah, yes, I was with my people.

New Star Wars: The Clone Wars Movie Images
George Lucas and company have released more images from their upcoming “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” movie in front of the film’s impending August 15, 2008 release date. Now those of you who have seen the cartoon show that the movie is based on probably won’t feel this way, but man, the animation style on this thing is kinda freaky. Seriously, the characters look like marionette dolls minus all the rope. The creepiest part of the characters are the faces. Wow, I mean, this thing might give me nightmares. Anyways, more new pics from the image below.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars Movie Poster and Trailer Info
If you didn’t get a chance to see the trailer for George Lucas’ “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” movie when someone bootleg it and put it on the net, then you’ll be able to catch it again on TV when it “premieres” across multiple Turner TV Networks on Thursday, May 8. This includes the channels Cartoon Network, TNT, TBS, CNN, and Boomerang. Or, you know, you could just scour the net and watch the bootleg version. I’m sure it’s still up there somewhere. George Lucas can’t find them all…
New Images from Star Wars: Clone Wars
Three new images from George Lucas’ “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” movie, set for release in late 2008, have arrived online via Empire Magazine. The images look cool, but Empire has gotten their bloody logo and magazine cover all over them, but hey, it’s new and they’ve got them, so we’ll have to deal with it for now. I’ll post better versions when they become available. Check them out below.
Movie Trailer: Star Wars – The Clone Wars
No, it’s not the trailer for “Clone Wars” that you’ve seen before. This one is for the newly announced “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” movie that is designed to bridge the gap between parts 2 and 3, “Attack of the Clones” and “Revenge of the Sith”. Because, you know, there were a lot of unanswered questions that apparently George Lucas thinks you Star Wars nuts will desperately want to find out and all that good stuff.

The bearded one himself, George Lucas, was in Vegas over the week to premiere a 5-minute clip from the upcoming “Star Wars: The Clone Wars”, which according to Lucas, is set between the events of the second and third movie (i.e. the prequels, not the original ones). As for the animation style he’s using, he describes is as “stylized”, and “Gerry Anderson style”. Empire also got him to talk more about the upcoming live-action Star Wars series that he’s planning.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars Movie Poster
To be perfectly honest with you, I’m still not sure why George Lucas is making a feature length animated film based on that whole “Clone Wars” stuff and releasing it into theaters. But I guess he reckons his Star Wars fans will watch pretty much anything he puts out with the “Star Wars” stamp on it; otherwise, why would anyone make his prequels hits? Those movies were Godawful. Anyways, here’s the poster for the upcoming “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” animated movie.

First Look at Star Wars: The Clone Wars Movie
This is news to me, but then again, I don’t really keep up with the Star Wars universe nearly as much as I should, because for me it’s kind of been played out, and I’m not really that interested in heading back to “a galaxy far, far away”. But according to this USA Today story, George Lucas isn’t just releasing “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” as a new TV series, but he’s also releasing it as a feature length movie.
