Also forgot to include Andor in the recording! But included some footage of it at the end. Pinned this as a comment before I posted the video so not sure why it wasn't showing up. Trying something new with longer videos on the clips channel. Let me know if you enjoyed this!

CGI clones in the prequels just look amazing, so beautifully done

The CGI was and still is incredible. Looks 1000x better than any modern Marvel movie

I'm probably in the minority but i prefer the CGI versions more, the colouring looks better to me and the armour looks like it fits better/ less bulky

The Cgi clones are so impressive! If no one told me they were cgi I would've never realised it 👏

"Are you part of the grand army of the Republic?" "Sir, I am the great army of the Republic" -Clone

I love Dee Bradley Baker's work in The Clone Wars and The Bad Batch but boy does it just hit so right to hear Temuera Morrison's voice coming from behind those helmets.

I've always loved the look of the CGI clones. They look so much better and more intimidating

The fact that none of the clones in the prequels were real and were all cgi still amazes me. I don't know why but I think cgi works a lot better for the clones, the same way it works better for characters like Master Chief. Live action just comes with so many imperfections that can come across as looking sort of fan-made or plastic that cgi doesn't.

When Cody says "Come on. when have I ever let you down?" my Phone was at 66 percent!

Please tell me I'm not the only one who prefers the old CGI clones. The live-action ones are fine but the armor looks like literal plastic, especially when you can see it (kinda) falling off in some shots like it did in the new Ahsoka episode. The CGI at least makes it look real and like it fits the wearer, which makes sense since the clones are all literally a single body type.

Seeing Captain Rex in Episode 5 made me really excited for some reason. As well as seeing all those clones in the flashback scenes. I really, *really* want to make my own piece of clone armor and be a Star Wars cosplayer.

When I was a child, I loved the 501st for some reason. I was a simple man trying to make my way through the "Star Wars" universe at the time. (We also got clones in the Republic Commando game but it doesn't count)

You skipped Andor

4:15 before order 66: standard trooper voice after order 66: sadistic mandalorian mercenary voice

0:48 "WAS IT TOFU!!?"

7:50 - While that was the likely technical reason, combat spacing is a real tactic to protect against explosive ordinances. It's actually better for it.

The troopers not standing together in Ahsoka makes sense in a tactical sense. Soldiers don't group up together, just makes you an easier target. The spacing between them in the scene would actually be incredibly close in real life.

I liked the CGI clones more than the live action actors. They move and look so much clunkier. the movements are more believable of what a clone trooper moves like in CGI

I'm not gonna lie: I had no idea that anyone else other than Temura Morrison played the older clones in the sequels. The younger versions look so much like him that I'm honestly amazed. Also: The CGI back then was so good that aside from the group shots on Kamino and the boarding of the troop ships during the end of aotc I didn't know they were CGI and the only times where I ever had a suspicion that something didn't look right was during Yodas command on Geonosis in the commanding station to shoot down the ships and with Yoda AGAIN in Episode 3 on Kashyyyk. Those 2 clones beside him just didn't seem right. But at the time I thought it was improper use of Greenscreen and CGI Yoda being the target for grounded visuals. I had no idea at the time, that all of them were CGI and honestly in SDR you can't tell. There were actually scenes in the Prequels that looked better on well upscaled DVDs instead of BluRay because the upscaled image still looked more believable than the actual high res native image. That being said I think most of the scenes the clones still hold up well. I never found them to draw me out of the movies and funnily enough I still meet many people that have no idea the clones weren't actual humans but CGI.

Clones in Ahsoka could have been hiding the fact that doubles aren't the same height, but also.. Soldiers never travel close together. That's how you get killed.

Now that i am re watching all these clips i can PHYSICALLY see the differences between old school CGI vs new school CGI.

Forgot to mention the clones in Andor! So I included some footage of them at the end. Also trying something new with longer videos on the clips channel. Let me know if you enjoyed this! 🕶️

Andor! And you actually played a clip from Andor at the very end! 🤣

When CGI becomes the practical effect

i love Clone Troopers they are so so so cool

Live action Rex is definitely one of my favorite things. He deserves to show up more in live action, either as CGI or an actual actor

Ngl - they really did an amazing job casting Bodie - his voice sounds literally like a younger Jango. Too bad he didn’t have a chance to speak as a young clone

I remember reading somewhere that Lucas realised after Attack of the Clones that these 'highly trained' clones didn't really look like they were all that highly trained at all, primarily because they were animated by, well, animators who had no military experience. Hence the standing around shooting from the hip all the time. So he got some former military guys in for Revenge of the Sith to do the motion capture and it really shows. We actually see them moving and fighting like soldiers that know what they're doing.

I just love the gag in the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, where the Emperor says "Execute order 67." and the clones starts to dance. XD

I actually love these Bombastic Clips not so short clips videos, just you talking with footage keep it up!

Supposedly the old man in Return Of The Jedi was Rex

Bro said tommorow Morrison💀

The clones in the prequels are perfection. Phase 2 is amazing

The live action clones have looked very good so far, especially in Ahsoka

I never knew they were CGI but I also never gave thought to how they would do it without CGI. They made the clones look good!!

I have so many thoughts on this. I love the consistency they have with the clones with live action vs animation. All animated clones and even Boba and Jango Fett on some occasions are Dee Bradley Baker. Danial Logan played kid Boba in live action and Clone Wars. I think he was even adult Boba in Lego Star Wars. Dee was even the clones for Battlefront 2 2017, which was awesome to hear. But all future appearances of the clones and Boba in live action (and a few games) was Temuera Morrison. I love that. It separates them, but not at all too much. It’s a great consistency with media. And with Battlefront 2, new and old, he’s Boba Fett. Connects to the movies and shows, AND separates Boba just enough in game to not just feel like another clone, but truly one of his own, but still connected. Best move they could’ve done to connect all the media together. My thoughts feel scattered with this comment, but you get the idea.

I was a critic of the obsession with only representing the clones as CGI, but after seeing them in Ahsoka, the Lucas era clones are clearly superior.. In Ahsoka we had overweight clones, short clones, taller clones, it was silly... especially early on in the clone wars they'd all be identical, not just whatever random extra was thoughtlessly put in clone armor waddling around in-shot. Disney just doesn't have the attention to detail, or willingness, to fill background characters properly.

Episode 3 Clones had some pretty impressive texture work. They actually have different wear on their paint jobs so they aren’t just complete copy and pasted of one another

Fans we got a big issue when we think that CGI is always bad and real props are always better. A good CGI can be also very very cool as seen in Attack of the Clones.

7:55 the one absolute legend on the left doing the BF2 sprint.

The CG clones in the battle of Utapau are beyond perfection in every single way, and are 1000x better than any live action clone will ever be

Honestly hard for me to say if I prefer the CGI or the actual armour because it all looks phenomenal.

My man, you missed the ones in Andor, when they march through Ferrix.

When rex siad: GO GO GO he sounded 55😂😂

The cgi looks so much better. The live action armour looks so cheap . Which amazes me since the original live action stormtroopers looked amazing so

Rex was in return of the Jedi at the battle of Endor. First live action appearance of him technically back in 1983, although retroactively canonized.

Also the reason why the clones are so spread out is because you dont wanna be grouped up and get a whole team or squad taken out by artillery or explosives

fun fact they never did a real clone trooper armor until kenobi's series show up, they used fans 1:1 realistics armor to recreate in the series

The parts in attack of the clones look like something out of the clone wars

They'd better show us longer more intricate scenes with clones in live action at some point. Like full dialogue scenes, putting helmets on and taking them off, Temuera Morrison playing them, and Rex being there along with maybe Cody and some other popular ones

man that was a quick ass 8 min, i was just so engrossed in learning more about clone troopers lol

Great video, thank you

I’m not even mad that most of the prequels were cgi because the cgi was REALLY GOOD

6:09 I never watched these newer Star Wars shows, so this was the first time I've ever seen this scene. Even after Order 66, it makes me sad that some clones ended up destitute and forgotten after everything they'd fought/suffered through.

Speaking of soldiers doing clones, former US special forces operators were heavily involved in the making of Republic Commando

cgi clones > real acted clones

it would be so awesome if the clone wars series would look like the CGI thing from the prequels

One of the biggest missteps of the prequels is the aggressive over-reliance on CGI. There is no reason Cody couldn’t have had practical armor when talking to Obi-Wan in the hangar.

I must say I kinda prefer the CGI clone troopers. I got used to them through the Prequels. ⚪ ⚪ ⚪

I think it’s wise to say it’s better to have CGI Clones than random actors wearing plastic around their body

The clones killed their god‘s son 💀💀💀

Order 66 flashback to balyon gonna happen tomorrow clone trooper

As for me, cgi clones looks better than life version, the armor, moves, all better and looks more professional I think than cosplay live action...

I can't believe it took me until today to realize that the shot of all the clones eating was *not* Temuera Morrison... I'm ashamed.

The clone scenes in Andor were intense

I got so excited when I saw captain Rex in Ashoka I freaked out and was screaming yes it is great that they finally brought him to life

How the kriff it dowgraded so much in the Ahsoka series

I love ❤️ clone troopers

I don’t think we’ve ever seen the clone army in its entirety at all

Temuera was the biggest character of star wars the biggest One Man Army of jango and the entire clone army and man of many faces

Clones are so fckin cool

The CGI for the clones is still my favorite, you can hardly tell imo. I loved them bringing fans to play as the clones in Andor, Kenobi and Ahsoka but they also are different height and armor quality is a bit different for each, they need Disney Quality like the storm trooper armor.

I love the battle of kashyyyk❤

does everyone just not notice Vaughn is in the Ahsoka Flashback?

I love the CGI clones honestly they could have kept using them in several episodes even in flashbacks I didn't really like the fact that used actual cast wearing clone armor cuz they made the Moodle chubbier and different

7:41 The Watsonian explanation would be they're out in the open with no cover and are spreading out to avoid Separtist artillery

The Clone in Obi Wan recognized him. He wasn't calling to anyone else but to Obi Wan. Remember, the 212th and the 501st regularly worked together on missions.

I guess you could say Rex's cameo in Return of the Jedi technically counts as a live action clone trooper appearance.

No idea that the clones in the prequels was CGI :O Thought they was real people, only time I thought it was CGI was from 1:40 to 1:50. Really amazing!

Ahoska was the first live action appearance of Rex. Return of the Jedi was.

i can't believe they made real clones for the new stuff

I’m sorry but the cgi clones looks so much better

When i was kid back then i never realised it was cgi. Meaning that the cgi back then works

In the Ahsoka series flashback of Siege of Mandalore....she is slashing the Mandalorians but in The Clone Wars, she only disarms them by either removing their weapons or cutting them in half

I much prefer the way live action looks. the CG is very cartoony, which i don't mind, but it still looks weird next to live actors (same issue with cg yoda). Some of the clones looking different would never have bothered me really, as long as they looked enough alike that it was clear they started from the same template. Even identical twins don't share every feature into their adulthood. Just look at Cole and Dylan sprouse and how one is taller than the other, and their hair isn't even the same color anymore

i had figured for a vast majority of scenes that the clones would be cgi in attack of the clones and revenge of the sith but there were few instances where i was fooled like when the 501st had stopped bail organa from entering the temple and finding out what was going on the close up sure fooled me

man the Disney SW effects seems so low brow in the Ahsoka show compared to previous titles

I’ll say it. I like the prequel clones better than the new practical ones

0:44 i swear the guy sitting next to him looks like Neymar Jr

I know they put so much effort into shows like this strangely i feel like the clones dont know how to be human when there standing or walking

I dunno, people complain about the CGI in the Prequels and go "how could it looks so awful" but a lot of it looks better than some CGI today, which just goes to show it's not about power of the computers it's about the scope of the project vs how much time and funding the CGI studios are receiving.

I dont wanna ruin anyone's day but those younglings def didnt escape...

i just realized rexs shoulder ranking armor thing (forgot name) is on the wrong side and wrong kind

When I was a child, I never realized the Clone troopers in AOTC and ROTS were CGI. I thought always: "Where did they get so many men who are exactly 1,83 meters high?" 😂

The reason for the Ahsoka clones is that the Phase 1 armour was designed with safety, not comfort and mobility. So for my part it seems more realistic with their weird run. But CGI before was better.

CGI honestly looked better than the live action. The clone armor wasn’t worn down enough to look like real “armor” it just looked like plastic. And the blue wasn’t the same shade.

The big deference is the shoulder and arms

I wonder why don’t they use one actor as a clone trooper and then just film him from several angles in several different ways for several different situations and scenes. And just copy him into those scenes. Like they did with the young clone actor in episode 2.

I will say, the CGI clones were totally fine honestly. It allows for them to truly be clones, all the same size and perfectly copied.
