Actually, there IS a fan theory about this. According to the theory, what we know as TCW is, in actuality, the Holonet version of the Clone Wars, and in all honesty, it explains a lot of inconsistencies. It’s made for the population in a similar way that WWII propaganda films were made. Note that every TCW series has a booming narrator at the beginning, just like wartime propaganda films. This is why we don’t have the battle of Coruscant or the Purge in TCW; the episodes hadn’t been made until after the Empire’s creation. Personally, I think the only true events in TCW are the Mortis Arc (referenced in later materials). Everything else has too many inconsistencies with previous EU material (Barris Offee being closer to 16 then to 25, anyone?).

Technically both are canon since they were both made by George Lucas.

The Grey Jedi I’m aware of this as Admiral Yularen is the narrator and old man in the Death Star. I really love Clone Wars and it’s so interwoven with the lore between two and three that it’s cool seeing how Anakin and Obiwan head to the outer rims and later end up in the battle of Coruscant. Once Anakin sees Padme in Episode III he even references his time in the outer rims. I know it’s minor but it’s so cool seeing that detail.

The Clone Wars = Canon Clone Wars 2003 = Legends/Non-Canon

Vincent Ly actually some elements of Clone Wars is indeed Cannon. Rogue One mentions the Battle of Hypori and Grevious’s fight against six Jedi.

Pablo The Penguin Not anymore. The Clone Wars is canon but this old micro series is not

Dan fuck pablo Hidalgo

Because Lucas said so.

It doesn't need to be canon to be good.

For me it is. Volume 1 fully and volume 2 partially since it contradicts with TCW2008, which is fully canon

Revi Bard-Harvey Yee

Yeah, boy.

I mean when Akira came out, George Lucas and Steven Speilberg stated the film to be unmarketable here in North America because the world wasn't ready for that massive jump in animation. George always respected and loved all forms of Japanese culture. He was one of the original weebs. Wonder if George had a waifu. lol 😆

@@jackbuchanan9085 Marcia Lucas was his waifu.

@@user-xx6vy9ri8p mellody hobson is the current waifu, they seem like a cute couple

I feel the same way about this "Clone Wars" not being canon. I also watched this on Cartoon Network. EDIT: It's on DisneyPlus now.

Actually, to me. If you do watch vol 2 after season 7 episode 9 of the clone wars 3D show, it does still lead in with episode III. Then after episode III you go to 10 and 12 together with Asoka. To me, that is an emotional journey within hours of my life.

@@Seras99 yes, I consider most of 2003 canon because why not, it's so cool

You I STAY telling people this exact same thing. Grievous is a MONSTER in this series and he goes stupid hard when kidnapping the chancellor. You sir have great taste in Star Wars 🍻

I wholeheartedly agree. I loved Anakin with his armor. 😍

Yeah seriously.

Agreed!

is this Clone Wars Stuck in the Disney Vault?

Not actually sure if this is in Disney's Vault because at the time it was broadcast by Cartoon Network, in the days of the Fox Studios copyright sharring.

atleast not until 2020, plus lucas seems to want it to be shared openly to increase interest in the rest of the star wars

How about Luke Cage?

don't be delusional towards you're own in denial facts. Stick to reality.

@@Gadget-Walkmen But this is a fictional universe

It does not fit with current canon, tho it still fits perfectly within Legends, as long as You keep TCW out of it

@@theketaminefrog6366 So? Obviously but it doesn't mesh well with other events established as both things can't exist at the same time.

@@theketaminefrog6366 Your comment makes no sense. You can keep TCW 2003 in line with legends perfectly fine.

Hey Fordo I would have killed that last Jedi on hypori if it wasn't for your badassery "stares angrily in badass 2d animation"

mercury man more like *growls at clone*

Fordo deserves respect.

Working on it.

be sure to give me a shout when you find it

+Captain Fordo (Delta253) Sorry this took me so long. Will be up in an hour.

+GoBIGclan Up soon.

kiss cartoon go on it and watch the clone wars 2003 than you will see it

Nope, I do too.

I love both too!

I think we can all agree that the 2003 series has better action though. Specifically lightsaber duels.

That only exists in alternate universe that we wish we were in....

Love them both

Yes! I totally agree!

I agree with Filoni on not killing her. I mean, what’s worse. Your student and daughter/sister figure dead but knowing their dead or them leaving and you not knowing what they’re doing or how they are.

They decided that she leaves the order and maybe dies in Siege of Mandalore, and then Lucas left Star Wars

I miss him too!

no, he just like anime like any normal person.

It was in fact released on DVD. It’s currently out of print, and pretty hard to find. There a few copies on eBay.

Also, George dismissed this as canon years before Disney acquired the company.

+J. Patrick Stublen Will Disney Released the Clone Wars Micro Series on Blu-Ray?, or it's thrown in the Trash like the Rest of the EU?, or it's on the Disney Vault?

+Conrado Javier I don't know. It was an amazing series. I know Tartakovsky wasn't happy when GL dismissed it.

+J. Patrick Stublen It seems that Dave Filoni had move Veto Power than Tartakovsky. The George Lucas Act dictates, that the New Version SHOULD Always overwrite the Old Version. Old: Han Shoot First Anakin had no Padawan Sebastian Shaw Yub Nub No Jabba in 4 This Micro Series Comics under Dark Horse

+Conrado Javier A true and solid observation.

This was before Volume 2 came out, I think they were trying to keep things under wraps.

Plinkett fanboy?

@@bilbobaggins9451 5 year old comment

@@bilbobaggins9451 As did you, my friend. Anyway in case this comment comes back to bite me I’m not drinking the anti-prequel koolaid anymore. Good movies

@@bilbobaggins9451 Yes

They still would have done a far better job with Episode III too.

I and II themselve are good

@@i-6083 Lol

@@ImTheReverse They are.

Honestly Steven Spielberg should’ve directed the Prequel Trilogy with Lawrence Kasdan and David Koepp writing the screenplay.

Yes, if only Ahsoka had been created then.

BlackWingedSeraph This version of Clone Wars was made before TCW CW 2003 - 2005 before ROTS episode 3 and TCW was made in 2008 - I guess idk if you count the finale season but Yee 2013 or 2014 6 season on Netflix used to be on Netflix or - 2019 Ashoka wasn't made back in 2003 - 2005 just to let you know

Eh, Clone Wars without Ashoka is better imo. She’s overrated.

@@just_koop I actually agree. She feels like a DeviantArt OC.

@@BlackWingedSeraphX Perfect way to describe it. Also TCW just has so many retcons. 2003 CW was made with the purpose of bridging episode II and III with a few additions and that’s what they did. I just feel like Filoni go carried away maybe.

Yet Disney used concepts from this in TFA kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eLqhgaVzxMDLfnU.html

But the modern Clone Wars series was launched years before Lucas sold Star Wars to Disney. And I think they were already no longer considering this canon.

+2000s Nostalgia 2004.

The series of ran from 2002 - 2005.

You can still buy them now on DVD

@@satoncho I saw DVDs on Amazon and eBay.

well dave filoni used ventress in his clone wars so in a way it is canon

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ea6iod2ZnKe9hqM.html

@@Surf_Vidz thanks:)

I’m not sure officially (misspelling) but it’s your head-cannon. I feel like TCW 2008 series is part of Disney’s cannon while the original CW 2003 Micro-Series is Original EU’s cartoon that’s what attracts it to me.

@@75JUNAKI yeah I agree. I don’t see the 2008 series as part of the EU timeline simply because Filoni pretty much disregarded this series when he made the movie along with the rest of the multimedia project this series was a part of. The 2008 series made it as though it was taking place a short while after Geonosis. Plus now a lot of the series is being retconned in Canon, Dookus first meet with Ventress is shown in Dooku Jedi Lost which takes place long before attack of the Clones

You would have to disgard Season 7 of TCW if you would accept in them together. Fact.

Darren Halstead Is the Micro Series in the Disney Vault?

Nah fam, it's on KZfaq

This show is like a religion, it never truly goes away. It will always be there.

@@conradojavier It is on DisneyPlus.

Legends Never Die

Quantum-Kakarotto canon's kill.

that's a funny way to spell Canon

This was legends even before Disney, which is even more upsetting.

Noe Segovia “I agreed.”

I think it was because this version of the Jedi and the Force were so op lmao. Mace fucking crushed Grievous' chest in less than 45 seconds!

BlackWingedSeraph isn’t he one of the strongest force user? It felt like a payoff to what Dooku said earlier regarding to how Grevious should approach his prey.

To me it wasn't just that, mace defeated a whole army of droids by himself. While in attack of the clones the Jedi including mace almost lost to a lesser amount of droids than the ones mace faced in the show.

"My office is a little messy," No dude, your office is a wreck and a fire hazard

If you mean BAAAD-ass, then I heartily agree with you, sir.

Because George wanted each shirt to be a minute long but Genndy managed to get it to 5 minutes.

How does if make him a weeb? What’s wrong with liking anime?

@@75JUNAKI Well, anime, for the most part, tends to be pretty dumb, but I’m just joking. I don’t mean to be mean to him.

They should have coexisted together or something like an alternate universe thing

Originally, the 2008 one was intended as a continuation of the original series, but then filoni decided to get chee to give him a special tier of canon and introduced retcons just because he could.
