Product Description Jedi knights Anakin Skywalker and Obi Wan Kenobi battle against evil forces with the help of the clone army.
Amazon.com The thrilling 3-D CGI animated series The Clone Wars serves as impressive proof that George Lucas's Star Wars universe could translate to a weekly television series that wouldn't lose the scope, imagination, or sense of adventure of the features. Like the 2008 feature film of the same name, the 22 episodes that compose the series' debut season (2008-2009) cover the action between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. Here Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and the latter's Padawan, 14-year-old Ahsoka Tano (who takes some getting used to), along with a complex cast of supporting characters from the Galactic Republic (including R2-D2 and C-3PO, again voiced by Anthony Daniels), battle the Separatists, which count members of the Sith and other adherents to the Dark Side of the Force among its ranks. The action is plentiful and the scripts rich with the quasi-mystical and eminently quotable dialogue on which the Star Wars saga has earned its legendary status; one can imagine only the most stringent purist or CGI detractor finding fault with the first season of The Clone Wars. The handsomely packaged four-disc set for season 1 includes a wealth of extras for those wishing to dig even deeper into the Clone Wars experience. Chief among the pleasant surprises is the widescreen aspect ratio for each episode, which gives greater depth and exposure to every single frame. Seven episodes are listed as Director's Cuts, which translates as an extra minute or two of action or dialogue--not earth-shattering, but they certainly enhance the enjoyment of each episode. Short featurettes, ranging between 5 and 7 minutes, accompany each episode and discuss production notes, character design, and other detail; these are expanded versions of the commentaries by supervising director Dave Filoni that were featured on StarWars.com, with additional contributions by series writer Henry Gilroy and sound designer David Acord, as well as new comments by Filoni. And there's a 64-page book of artwork from the series, including storyboards, concept design, and matte paintings, built into the body of the packaging itself. For the Easter Egg-inclined, a surprise awaits on each disc, including trailers for season 2 and animatics. --Paul Gaita

Love Clone Wars August 16, 2010 Sandy C. Jourdain (NYC, NY) My Son love clone wars and this was perfect for him and when his friends come over.
The Clone Wars - DVD & books August 16, 2010 David Pruette (USA) I have recently watched Season One of The Clone Wars on DVD while, at the same time, reading The Official Episode Guide to see if I missed anything while I was watching. The DVDs are wonderful, and it has been great fun to watch the episodes again after seeing them originally on TV. Each episode includes a featurette showing director Dave Filoni and other key members of the production team talking about the development of the episode. All were very interesting. Also, a few of the episodes are presented as director's cuts, so they show some footage we have not seen before. Great fun. The package also includes a booklet showing drawings and pictures.
The Official Episode Guide is also very useful. Each episode is covered separately with a synopsis, pictures, background information, and lists of the cast, characters, weapons, and vehicles. I found the book to be helpful if you read about each episode after watching them on the DVD.
Then there is the Character Encyclopedia for Clone Wars. The book covers more than 200 characters and gives you a description, statistics, a picture, and specific background information for each. The characters are listed in alphabetical order so you can always look up a particular one you might be interested in. As is true with most Clone Wars items, the book has a great look to it.
I am pleased that The Clone Wars series has been successful enough to spawn all of the books and the DVDs that have been issued. The quality of the packaging has been excellent, and I am optimistic that we have a great deal more to look forward to.
The BEST movie ever! August 12, 2010 CaptainR3X I bought this when it was $35 and man it was SO worth it! It's got 22 action packed episodes and directors cuts for each of them. Now that I've watched all the episodes.... I'm obsessed! I promise this will be the best movie you'll ever get! I've now seen every episode a billion times and I still NEVER get bored of it! I highly recommend this DVD, do NOT listen to the people who gave this a bad rating! It is the Best by FAR! Get this for any Star Wars fan of any age, they'll love it! Thanks, I hope I was helpful.
Star Wars The Clone Wars Complete Season One July 24, 2010 Barbara E. Zimmerman (Illinois) I purchased this for my 9 year old grandson, who is one of the biggest Star Wars The Clone Wars fans ever. He probably has ever word and person in this set already memorized:)
Makes me want to be a kid again July 19, 2010 Corey L. Oakes (TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love it and absolutely recommend this to any Star Wars fan or parent with Padawan-aged children.
My world changed when I experienced Star Wars in 1977 and I would have done almost anything to have seen this series back then...in the dark ages, before computers and the internet!
Today, even with the societal immersion into a digital era of electronic gadgets and inter-connectivity, I still love me some "Old Fashioned" Star Wars.
My son loves watching this with me and letting me know all about the Jedi and who he thinks is the best amongst them. His enthusiasm for this franchise makes me want to be a kid again, back when I had to make a light saber out of a flashlight and construction paper.
Sit back and enjoy a serialized "Good guys vs. Bad guys" marathon with your kids. There isn't any nudity, overt sexuality and no F-bombs. Just good clean fun.
