Thursday Feb 20, 2020
Thursday Feb 20, 2020
Welcome to the final entry of our Story Lives Forever series, it’s been a heck of a ride! We’re ending things with the original and often overlooked (we feel) spinoff theatrical film: 2008’s “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” animated feature. Coming 3 years after 2005’s “Revenge of the Sith”, the Clone Wars film came at a weird time in Star Wars history and was our first introduction to Dave Filoni’s brand of Star Wars (as well as our intro to future fan favorite character Ahsoka Tano). Take a listen and then let us know how you first experienced “The Clone Wars.”
