Tartakovsky's animated series will be back March 26



Star Wars: Clone Wars is coming back...well the cult animated series that is. I'm also sure they will change the name of the new animated series and I got most...ok, ok, all of my information from the scifi.com. Tartakovsky is also know for a lot of other grate work like Samurai Jack, Dexter's Laboratory, Power Puff Girls. Tartakovsky and his team is very talented and they are not afraid to take chances, that other networks just won't take.

Tartakovsky told the Now Playing Magazine "We're doing five 12-minute episodes. [The original episodes] were like three minutes. It's harder, but in a way it's easier, because in the three-minute ones it's basically just piling in a bunch of action. But in these new ones, we have a lot of character and still a lot of action, but we were able to really do some more acting and relationship-building. So it was much more fun to do, and that way it didn't seem harder."

He also went on to say "I think the tone is a little darker initially. We're kind of carrying all the ideas from Episode II that were established: the secret marriage of Anakin and Padmé and his relationship with Obi-Wan progressing beyond just bickering. That was one of the main things that we tried to focus on. They maybe become more friends than simply master and padawan. It's a little bit more [like] a movie. It feels more like one story [than the first series did]. We have one story building into the climax, and then there are a couple of side stories, but they're all very interrelated."

I personal think this is a grate move for the Cartoon Network and Tartakovsky. I enjoyed the last season and this new season looks to be much better and larger. I personal can't wait to see these shorts and maybe they will even make a full new series out of it, who knows?
