I love how they made General Grevious one of those ‘Unstoppable Force’ characters. He really felt like a Jedi killer, and way more badass. Watching his fight scenes in the older Clone Wars series never gets old.
I personally prefer the Movie Grievous and his fight scenes but I wish I could love the Grievous here as much as everyone else seems to. For me he's super interesting and compelling in the movies but in this show he's a block of wood with gimmicks. The new Clone Wars is even worse.
Like when Grievous shatters the clone trooper helmet in the Chancellors room? Never gonna not get goosebumps OR forget that satisfyingly intimidating crunch
Yes, Please as said by the user above, this Grievous’ character is explored way more in depth in the rest oft the EU and just makes him the best version overall.
@@VinVonVoom I gotta disagree. Here, it actually makes sense why he's in charge of the droid army and why he has lightsabers as trophies. He truly is a cyborg general who kills Jedi for sport and keeps their weapons as his.
_"Everything that I've ever done is not really based on reality, it's the caricature of reality, which is what's really exciting."_ *~ Genndy Tartakovsky*
The only problem I see with this version is that the amazing action animation used in grievous’s and mace windu’s scenes weren’t used for the whole thing. The star fighting scenes were very unsatisfying to watch.
These animations make grevious look like a complete badass. Something we never really saw before. He literally takes on 5 Jedi at once and obliterates them all.
And something we havent seen since unfortunetly. 2003 feels like an alternate timeline where characters given their all to win the war over having fancy tactics and political debates.
And he was given a BUILD UP, a suspense of terror which makes the fight capitalize on a tension that's already in viewer's mind. That's how you handle a villain, Genndy did a masterful work.
Actually, animated series are were we can truly see what Jedis are truly capable of. The reason why the movies don't show it it's because if they show that kind of things in live action, then people wouldn't believe it at all.
@@alexmontgomery4776 I wish Gendy direct some episodes of The Mandalorian as well, just like Dave Filoni (director of The Clone Wars 3D show) but he said that he "already close that door". Such a shame, i'll love to see him return to Star Wars.
Winnie The Flu I owe you and all the other OG fans an apology bro, I was sleepin on this show back in the day. Only started gettin into Star Wars just recently
@@dantheman340 personally I believe they both excelled at different things. I would love if the personality traits of certian characters from both combined into one character. Edit: added the "I believe".
SushiLover665 I think both a good and if the 2003 series had the amount of episodes I think it would be regarded as such, considering that most of these are just shorts
I just love how over the top this series was. Durge is the definition of that, even after being exploded by Kenobi's force repulse, he STILL SURVIVES! And what does it take to kill him? Yeeting him into a star to ATOMIZE HIM! Also Grevious is at his most intimidating and Captain Fordo is one of my favourite characters to the point of building an extensive head canon around him.
Apparently he has done this before, but it was because a friend showed him. He said that we just felt like he played even more of a badass than he had originally thought
One of my favourite scenes is the lone gunship flying into the middle of the droid army to rescue the jedi, and the fight between the clones and Greivous.
That might be my favorite scene of the whole series. when they’re loading their guns and readying their gear its super satisfying to me for some reason. Also cool a hell
My favorite lightsaber duel from Star Wars: Clone wars was the fight between Anakin and Ventress on Yavin 4, it’s a pretty intense and entertaining fight. And pushes the limits of how a duel between Two Force users looks with such Fast paced animation style, not to mention it has a badass Soundtrack.
Yearlonggiant it’s honestly one of the best duels in any Star Wars movie or show. The pacing of it is absolutely perfect - tension build up with the clones getting rekt, intense fighting followed by the cat and mouse part, change in weather, the fighters take a break to size each other up, it’s on point thematically... honestly perfect
And then you realize this is a duel between two people that aren't even in the league of masters yet. So imagine a duel between a Sith Lord and Jedi Master of TOR in this animation. It'd last a whole damn hour. And no joke, a Jedi Master in the actual SWTOR MMO states that he dueled a Sith Lord on a moon for 2 days straight. How fucking hardcore can you people get !? 🤣
The most accurate journey of Anakin to Vader we have. Only when he resorts to rage can he emerge victoriously, which he justifies by saying it was for the republic's needs.
I consider this show to be Episode 2.5 George personally approved every creative decision in it and even screened the whole series before the initial showing of Revenge of the Sith.
REMINDER: This show was directly tied into the "Republic" Comic Series Ventress was never written to die on Yavin IV, and she would go to fight anakin on future occassions
Loved those. Made me a big fan of John Ostrander before reading his DC work (Spectre, Suicide Squad). I don’t think the new canon has anything on Battle of Jabiim and Aargonar when it comes to developing Anakin in the Clone Wars.
Not only do you do the first Grievous fight, but also Mace Windu's and the Anakin v Ventres? The three best in one?? I tip my hat to you. A well deserved wait.
That's my problem with the CG Clone Wars series, I think they forgot that Anakin is only supposed to be early 20's at the time, whereas both Obi-Wan and Anakin look around 30.
In some ways, The 2008 Clone Wars Anakin is what he would be if he matured and grew up in an alternate era where Jedi Purge never happened and he never became Vader. That said, I really love the "different take" of the character. It was great to see his arcs and his relationships with Obi, Rex, Ahsoka and Padme throughout the seasons.
I grew up on those two volumes along with the ewok movies. The music, action and expansion on background jedi really make it worth a watch for every star wars fan
I remember racing home to watch these five minutes of beauty every week. You describe them brilliantly, alongside the actual scenes: it just matches very well. The excitement and passion you have for this show is palpable. Grievous was the coolest in this show, and that Asajj fight is one of my all-time favorite lightsaber (force user?) battles. Wish it was on Disney Plus, but thank you for highlighting such an under appreciated and gorgeous cartoon.
YES! The original series is definitely one of the most underrated pieces of content in Star Wars. The visual storytelling and action are some of the best in the franchise.
I always felt that this series actually gave us the full power of the Jedi, what they can actually do and how they fight, with smooth grace and precision that is born from tapping into the Force and decades of training. All of which wouldn't translate well in live action, I don't see it as over-the-top, the Jedi are peacekeepers but are still regarded as some of the greatest warriors in the galaxy. This gives us that expression better than anything else, even better than the Clone Wars 2008 TV series, while that show does give us more in terms of storytelling and expanding upon the characters, its lacking the true might that an experienced force user could unleash which this does a lot better in.
4:49 one of the coolest darkest scenes in SW and one reason why this series was better than any other SW series so far imo... Also reason grevious isn't great in ep3 is due to windu crushing him in this... Hence the cough
"Too epic to be canon"? You mean 'actually logical and accurate to the established canon'? Don't call something 'too epic to be canon' just because it realistically depicts what wizard fighting with weightless lightsabers WOULD AND SHOULD LOOK LIKE! I am SOOOOOO TIRED of disney's drunk-guys-fighting-with-machetes duels! They suck!
@@Alx1744 disney's choreography has seemed (to me at least) to be more focused on emulating real life swordplay, rather than depicting superhuman combatants with arcane weaponry (as is in the prequels and both versions of TCW)
@@djsalad5752 If disney wanted real-life sword-play, then Star Wars science 👉🏻fiction 👈🏻👉🏻 fantasy 👈🏻 may not be the best course of action for them! 😂 What kind of sword moves like the disney sequel-saber anyway? I can only imagine an unbalanced machete made out of cement moving like their poor attempts at lightsabers... it is infuriating, really. Even boogie2988 can swing a heavier blade faster than disney's sequel fan-fiction "masters of the force".
C3P0 stripping felt oddly inappropriate at the end. Somewhat similar to cats from Cats, when they take off clothes they don't need in the first place. Weird.
I recently decided to watch Clone Wars, The Clone Wars and Rebels because I thought it was about time. Immediately after watching Clone Wars I knew that I was going to learn to regret it...because it isn't canon, but it's so good. The fact that they used the voice actors later, in the Revenge of the Sith video game that I grew up with also really helped.
God I remember when this show aired on Cartoon Network when I was 9 years old. Every Friday night I would be sitting in front of the TV with excitement waiting for the new episode to come on. The lead up to ROTS was excellent with the show ending right at the start of the movie.
Dude, you are so spot on. This "stupid, little cartoon" did so much more for the prequel stories than the movies did and actually showed much more maturity in it's delivery for tension and character.
Aye!!!!! The mix between SW/Samurai Jack action here is badass as hell, as a martial artist, seeing prequel speed in the show and movies is a breath of fresh air, the moment I’ve seen it as a kid. Still badass to this day, years later.
It legitimately shocks me every time I hear that Greavous only shows up in episode 3 because I was so familiar with him from watching all of these repeatedly as a kid.
Because he's way more compelling that way. A Vader clone with less personality and a sillier voice isn't very interesting. Movie Grievous is a trick fighter and he's a genuinely cunning and engaging. He even has a better (if brief) fight scene between him and Kenobi. I've adored this show for a long time but Grievous in ROTS is much better IMO, this show he feels like a block of wood that looks and fights kinda cool.
@@VinVonVoom Nope. The simple reason is because when this show was in production George Lucas simply said "Grievous is the general of the droid armies who carries jedi lightsabers as trophies", and Genndy took that idea and ran with it. Unfortunately midway into the second season George revealed that Grievous was supposed to be a _pathetic Saturday Morning Cartoon villain_ , and Genndy decided he'd compromise and make up something about Mace destroying Grievous' insides with the same technique he used to tear Super Battle Droids apart and break his windpipe to match the movie Lucas had just finished filming.
@@SpecterVonBaren Similar, perhaps but I didn't copy paste anything and I brought up entirely different points. Also calling him a block of wood was just a fun allegory really, bit of an exaggeration.
@@VinVonVoom "A trick fighter" -eh, no? He doesn't do anything smart and then dies. CW Grievous is the one who really is smart and cunning. He is the one who has a vast array of techniques and tactics to fight the jedi. His duel with Kenobi in ROTS was absolute garbage, lol. Horrendous choreography with Grievous just swinging his lightsabers through the air near Obi Wan's face 90% of the time instead of actually trying to kill him, more than 20 times when Kenobi should have logically died, and the end of it is just silly.
To this day I remember the rain drops sizzling off lightsabers. And the other two scenes you talk about - Grevious as well as Mace - still stick in my mind. I think I watched PARTS of this show and just once (never saw any more than twice), but I still remember those scenes to this day. ONE other I remember that you didn't mention was the episode where they meet the aliens. I don't remember all the details, but I do remember something to do with his arm and how it kind of presages his future, kind of like the Clone Wars episodes on Mortis. Great moments that still resonate in my mind all these years later.
I remember catching a few segments on TV back in 03. I loved it. I used to rent the first volume from my local video store all the time. That Grievous cliffhanger. Wow. I never knew the show had a second volume until I got the Internet in 2007. When I finally got to watch the entire series, it blew my mind. I still love this show, and I'm so glad that it was added to Disney+.
You're writing, hilarious! The show itself, incredible! Yes you should continue talking about Star Wars: Clone Wars, you're great when you talk about it. I liked the small fights too, like Kit Fisto fighting under water and Barris Offee and Luminara(?) on the Jedi Crystal world. I forget that one lol we need more!
This show has what it has to be my favorite Duel in all Star Wars, which is Anakin vs. Ventress. Not only is a great piece of animated action, but a masterclass on Visual Storytelling. Gotta love Gendy.
cant tell you how many times i have rewatched the series again and again.true star wars inspiration and fix whenever its needed.but please make a second video make sure to include anakin having his braid cut off to become a jedi knight, dooku training grievous and explaining methods to defeat the jedi ,anakin taking on an entire battalion of drone pilots including the trench run, the crystal is the heart of the blade sequence, facing the mirror where he journeys into the nelvan caves to see this future in the prehistoric wall paintings and finally the run and gun battle between grievous his guards, shak ti and 2 other jedi as they try to escort the chancellor into the bunker during the raid on corrusant with special focus of the fight in the train station.a small selection of why we all love this and the reason it will never be replaced by the new clone wars series.
Great commentary of the Clone Wars animation. Perfect descriptions of each scene. Yeah man...keep it up. I gotta go back and watch the whole thing all over again now.
YEEEES, Finally someone said it! Finally someone agrees with me that this Grevious sounds way cooler! Also yes, please do more videos about clone wars, there isn't enough love on youtube for this show!
9:48 Not to mention Force users actually use the Force while fighting. I never got why Obi-Wan tried to fist fight Grievous when he could've just lifted him up and dropped him off a platform.
It just doesn't translate realistically/logically to a live action movie, just imagine that Grievous and Obi-Wan are moving too fast to actually see and there isn't time to think or a real opening to use the force offensively on Grievous.
Yess! I am loving all the love this series is getting on TH-cam! I watched sit as a kid and adored it. As I got older I started to appreciate the beauty and nonverbal storytelling of this series.
I can't stand when people shit on movie Grievous. Dude had so much personality. Sure he was scarier in 2003 CW and more conniving in 2008 TCW, but I love how he has this unspoken rivalry and mutual respect for Kenobi that even appears to lapse into fondness at moments. They even referenced how Windu injured him when Anakin rags on his hunched over posture. He's smart enough to take his ship getting destroyed and turn it into a plan to trap and destroy the Jedi and the chancellor. He has humanity in that movie, and people who make fun of how he was designed to wield more lightsabers are raving about the thing where he just uses lightsabers to be a badass and has no humanity, and to them movie Grievous sucks? What garbage. Sorry, I love you and your videos Full Fat. I just think you're Full of Shit on that point in this Video.
I really enjoy 2003 Grievous, but like the video said, it's basically a night and day difference between the two. 2003 had some of the coolest animation, kick-ass scenes, and a perfectly fitting soundtrack, however 2008 TCW/Movie Grievous has much more personality in my eyes, (though that's probably my nostalgia goggles talking to some degree.) His rivalry with Obi-Wan is by far one of the most interesting things about his character and seeing the two interact in the TCW will always be my favorite interactions in all of Clone Wars. He still shows a cunning, tactical side in TCW/Movie, yet is realistically flawed with arrogance, impatience, and a tinge of cowardice. (Most of his retreats are usually because he's cornered or because his opponent escapes. As the General of a grand army, running would be the smartest thing to do in such moment.) 2003 Grievous is probably seen as more badass by most cause he had a lot less plot armor to work through, plus the 2003 CW was kinda insane with their power levels (in a good way) that made that Grievous appear to be unkillable. TCW/Movie Grievous had his share of cool moments, though the vast majority of them weren't as impactful since they were always against main characters. His last fight with Ahsoka in TCW was pretty cool, and he probably would of won too if it hadn't been interrupted. Eeth Koth V Grievous, though short and with a bit of scummy playing, is also a highlight of TCW Grievous. I don't think Full Fat is "Full of Shit," I just think that, when you lay the facts down, it's just the truth that 2003 Grievous is cooler on the surface, like every character in 2003 CW. That's just my opinion, though.
@@tigerfive1003 I honestly like how you broke that down. I agree full fat isn't full of shit but people have their own opinions. You acknowledged that and I thank you.
@@tigerfive1003 I feel like modern jedi (prequel era) used the force for movement and creativity while the swotor and motor used burst power and force rituals with artifacts gain the advantage on the battlefield I think. This has nothing to do with grievous
@@tigerfive1003 2003 CW Grievous was cool and all but you couldn't have a villain like that in the movies or TCW. He'd overshadow every single other villain, including Dooku and Palpatine, and make them all look like chumps. And he's also pretty one-note. I mean, he's basically just an unstoppable alien Terminator. That would get old pretty fast in a long-running series. Especially since he'd have to lose most of the time anyway. I agree, I like movie/TCW Grievous because he's got personality. I love how cheap and underhanded he is when the odds are against him, and how he just full-on embraces it and doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks. Like he just blatantly cheats and then starts laughing maniacally about it like it makes him the greatest genius in the universe lol. Movie/TCW Grievous owns. This meme that he sucks because he's a coward needs to die. That's what makes him so lovable.
This channel covering *this* show? A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one. Please cover more. The Clone Wars is a beautifully and uniquely animated show, but honestly, this has got to be the best Star Wars animation ever.
I won't lie, you've brought a new perspective on this show to me. I love, love, LOVE Samurai Jack's art style, but seeing Star Wars with it, especially with some of the choices made- Palpatine, Dooku, Qui-gon, and such- Just... I never got behind it, the look of the characters just peeved me to no end, but you've revolutionized it for me. Positivity does that, I suppose.
I hope that one day we get a General Grievous movie or live action series with Mathew Wood still voicing Grievous but with the presence and skill of Clone Wars 2003 Grievous!
Definitely do more of this show. It's just excellent. Personal favourite, following the clones on their siege of that droid controlled city. I think it is arguably the best that the troops have ever looked and it's just so satisfying to watch.
This series is masterfully made. The Grievous duel, and especially the Anakin vs. Ventures duel, are some of my favorite lightsaber fights in the entire franchise. Whenever I show someone the movies going forward, I'm at least going to suggest we watch this series between Episodes II and III.
Grievous in 2003 and also in his comic appearances is my favourite Star Wars villain. Revenge of the Sith was... ok. It wasn’t his movie and he was only a side character made to be killed off, just like in canon. But 2008... oh man. Look how they massacred my boy. The retcon was a disgrace. He lost all the attributes that made him threatening, he lost his backstory that actually made his position feel justified and rather tragic. He turned into a literal saturday morning cartoon villain with a personality to match. They invented plenty of other fodder characters so why did they have to ruin him?
I think that and the droids being buffoons is all that keeps me turned off from that show, sadly. I can't easily get over those things when Ive seen them treated like serious threats in the past.
Usually when people make statements about Grievous, or how he's portrayed in each medium (EU, movie, TCW) I half agree half disagree, but I'll be honest by saying you summed up my thoughts exactly and I absolutely agree with everything you said. Damn shame this comment hasn't gotten more traction, but I guess it's not technically a popular opinion, so there's that. Seems people often forget that Grievous is mortally injured during the events of RotS and the reason he acts differently is because of that, it's not fair to judge someone so poorly based off of the last few days of their life, especially if that problem is he's simply recovering and trying not to die in a weakened state. It's also overlooked that RotS has like, 12 fights in it, with its runtime and Grievous not being the main antagonist, the content of his fight suffered severely for it, same with Dooku after all.
@@rustkarl Well I suppose that's fair, I more ment he was mortally injured when Mace nearly killed him, but he heals rather quickly, so as the days pass he heals more, the point is I think people forget he's injured at all.
This video does a good job summing up this show. I think the general audience misconceived the show by its aesthetics without giving it a real chance as it was actually very dark for a kids show with amazing dramatic build ups and the best part being the new characters being introduced.
If you want actual war and nonstop action, Tartakovsky's Clone Wars is the Clone Wars for you. If you want clones to have character and go a bit more philosophical, Filoni's Clone Wars is the Clone Wars for you. In the past I've said that Tartakovsky's is the better of the two, but I've come to realize that they've become too different from one another to really say one is better on the whole than the other because they have two very different goals. But if they don't change anything about the battle of Coruscant and Palpatine's capture in this Final Season of Filoni's Clone Wars, then I argue that what we see in Tartakovsky's still happens because that chase through Coruscant and that train fight is just too awesome to retcon, -which then makes Tartakovsky's the better of the two.-
The anakin vs ventress fight in this show is also where the running gag of whenever anakin fights someone with her sabers (such as barriss) or a dual blade user. When he grips the wrist his his metal hand and they drop it. It's used a few times in the cgi clone wars and I think in rebels but I can't remember.
Bro nailed it. I was chatting w/ some ppl on facebook a few days back tellin em how great the CN Clone Wars series was. What you said about Grievous was what I was trying to put into words. He had skill, tact and an overall commanding presence from his introduction to the final fight between him and Shaak Ti. When he showed up you were just like..oh shit how are they gonna get outta this. The movie version of him was the real cartoon. Just a joke of what he should and could have been.
Two things 1) I'd love a Mace Windu movie but instead of SLJ, I wouldn't actually mind seeing Michael B Jordan take on the role of a new Jedi Knight sent on his first mission. He just seems perfect for the role in my mind. 2) One of the most underrated moments from the show is the Knighting of Anakin.
I really love how they made jedi fare in different environments. Fisto with his special kyber crystal that allows him to be underwater, saesee tin capturing a separatist ship. And so on
Mace Windu on Dantooine inspired the entire ten books character arch of what it means to be a master for my book series! Finally done right! Perfection.
Nobody: Full fat videos: The 2003 clone wars series has one of the best stories (I’m just saying the story isn’t that good, it’s the action that’s good)
That series was pure gold. Assaj recruiting scenes by Dooku in the arena and later in her resting room ware also iconic. Not the best voice acting though in French, we had the chance to have the same dub voices than in the movies. And Anakin's and Obi Wan journey in the second part are also a very good story ark, not to mention that we finally get to see a Jedi knighting ceremony ! And Kit Fisto fighting into the waters of Mon Calamari are also a memorable part.

One of my favourite scenes is the lone gunship flying into the middle of the droid army to rescue the jedi, and the fight between the clones and Greivous.
Not just any Clones, motherfing ARC Troopers.
I love how they added cartoony chainsaw sounds to it when Grievous is killing clones in Palpatines office
-Rely signs, one on the rubble
-Sir!
-Another in the Raptures
-Yes sir
-Evereybody else, *with me, move out! *
That might be my favorite scene of the whole series. when they’re loading their guns and readying their gear its super satisfying to me for some reason. Also cool a hell
Then the gunship arrives as back up and kept Grevious away so the arcs can escape on it.

My favorite lightsaber duel from Star Wars: Clone wars was the fight between Anakin and Ventress on Yavin 4, it’s a pretty intense and entertaining fight. And pushes the limits of how a duel between Two Force users looks with such Fast paced animation style, not to mention it has a badass Soundtrack.
Yearlonggiant it’s honestly one of the best duels in any Star Wars movie or show. The pacing of it is absolutely perfect - tension build up with the clones getting rekt, intense fighting followed by the cat and mouse part, change in weather, the fighters take a break to size each other up, it’s on point thematically... honestly perfect
Rogue Matter and how impossible it would be to create in live action 😂
And then you realize this is a duel between two people that aren't even in the league of masters yet. So imagine a duel between a Sith Lord and Jedi Master of TOR in this animation. It'd last a whole damn hour. And no joke, a Jedi Master in the actual SWTOR MMO states that he dueled a Sith Lord on a moon for 2 days straight. How fucking hardcore can you people get !? 🤣
BlackShogun 27 The Old republic trailers capture the duels between Jedi and Sith pretty well too 😂
Rogue Matter agree 100% one of the best duels that Star Wars has to offer
"We get to see these fantastical force abilities like never before."
*Shows Phase 1 Clone trooper being thrown like a frisbee*
Hey wait your in the wrong scifi series.
The most accurate journey of Anakin to Vader we have. Only when he resorts to rage can he emerge victoriously, which he justifies by saying it was for the republic's needs.
I consider this show to be Episode 2.5
George personally approved every creative decision in it and even screened the whole series before the initial showing of Revenge of the Sith.
Everything except Grievous's backstory and personality, which he retconned.
REMINDER:
This show was directly tied into the "Republic" Comic Series
Ventress was never written to die on Yavin IV, and she would go to fight anakin on future occassions
The Clone Wars Mega-Project was in full swing and everyone was eating that shit up. It was a great time to be a Star Wars fan...
@@blackshogun272 Before the Dark times...
@@ForsakenDreamer7 before Disney...
Loved those. Made me a big fan of John Ostrander before reading his DC work (Spectre, Suicide Squad). I don’t think the new canon has anything on Battle of Jabiim and Aargonar when it comes to developing Anakin in the Clone Wars.
Dark horse’s comics were so good
Not only do you do the first Grievous fight, but also Mace Windu's and the Anakin v Ventres? The three best in one??
I tip my hat to you. A well deserved wait.
Not to mention in the 2003 clone wars Anakin actually looks his age
That's my problem with the CG Clone Wars series, I think they forgot that Anakin is only supposed to be early 20's at the time, whereas both Obi-Wan and Anakin look around 30.
Deathlygunn and the Voice actor for this series is a lot more accurate to the films, CG Anakin always sounded old to me
@@Deathlygunn And forgot a lot about his characterization
It doesn’t help CG Anakin to have a apprentice, that really ages him
In some ways, The 2008 Clone Wars Anakin is what he would be if he matured and grew up in an alternate era where Jedi Purge never happened and he never became Vader. That said, I really love the "different take" of the character. It was great to see his arcs and his relationships with Obi, Rex, Ahsoka and Padme throughout the seasons.
I grew up on those two volumes along with the ewok movies. The music, action and expansion on background jedi really make it worth a watch for every star wars fan
Same!!!!
I remember racing home to watch these five minutes of beauty every week. You describe them brilliantly, alongside the actual scenes: it just matches very well. The excitement and passion you have for this show is palpable. Grievous was the coolest in this show, and that Asajj fight is one of my all-time favorite lightsaber (force user?) battles. Wish it was on Disney Plus, but thank you for highlighting such an under appreciated and gorgeous cartoon.
12 minutes isn’t enough to cover this masterpiece.
YES! The original series is definitely one of the most underrated pieces of content in Star Wars. The visual storytelling and action are some of the best in the franchise.
I always felt that this series actually gave us the full power of the Jedi, what they can actually do and how they fight, with smooth grace and precision that is born from tapping into the Force and decades of training. All of which wouldn't translate well in live action, I don't see it as over-the-top, the Jedi are peacekeepers but are still regarded as some of the greatest warriors in the galaxy. This gives us that expression better than anything else, even better than the Clone Wars 2008 TV series, while that show does give us more in terms of storytelling and expanding upon the characters, its lacking the true might that an experienced force user could unleash which this does a lot better in.
4:49 one of the coolest darkest scenes in SW and one reason why this series was better than any other SW series so far imo...
Also reason grevious isn't great in ep3 is due to windu crushing him in this... Hence the cough
I love how the scene of Mace Windu killing all of the battle droids was literally declared too epic to be made canon
"Too epic to be canon"?
You mean 'actually logical and accurate to the established canon'?
Don't call something 'too epic to be canon' just because it realistically depicts what wizard fighting with weightless lightsabers WOULD AND SHOULD LOOK LIKE!
I am SOOOOOO TIRED of disney's drunk-guys-fighting-with-machetes duels! They suck!
@@Alx1744 disney's choreography has seemed (to me at least) to be more focused on emulating real life swordplay, rather than depicting superhuman combatants with arcane weaponry (as is in the prequels and both versions of TCW)
@@djsalad5752
If disney wanted real-life sword-play, then Star Wars science 👉🏻fiction 👈🏻👉🏻 fantasy 👈🏻 may not be the best course of action for them! 😂
What kind of sword moves like the disney sequel-saber anyway? I can only imagine an unbalanced machete made out of cement moving like their poor attempts at lightsabers... it is infuriating, really.
Even boogie2988 can swing a heavier blade faster than disney's sequel fan-fiction "masters of the force".
C3P0 stripping felt oddly inappropriate at the end.
Somewhat similar to cats from Cats, when they take off clothes they don't need in the first place.
Weird.
I had to include it because it’s so fucking hilarious
When was that? I must've missed it.
They even add like a sexy music in that scene. It's super odd lol
@@arshawitoelar7675 11:13
This is my favorite take on the Clone Wars. The later Clone Wars cartoon was/is great, but this one was amazing.
When Grievous unveils his four arms just once is amazing
This was my childhood, Stil watch this show after ep 2 and before ep 3, when binging all the movies... it just fits
The good old days, watching every new episode with one of my best friends, enjoying any bit of Star Wars until Episode III was to come out
I recently decided to watch Clone Wars, The Clone Wars and Rebels because I thought it was about time. Immediately after watching Clone Wars I knew that I was going to learn to regret it...because it isn't canon, but it's so good.
The fact that they used the voice actors later, in the Revenge of the Sith video game that I grew up with also really helped.
lol i guess that's the effect of good storytelling lol. Should've watched it in the reverse order. Worst to best
Please talk about some volume 2 action scenes. Love seeing this show being appreciated.
God I remember when this show aired on Cartoon Network when I was 9 years old. Every Friday night I would be sitting in front of the TV with excitement waiting for the new episode to come on. The lead up to ROTS was excellent with the show ending right at the start of the movie.
9:34 blew my mind never though about rain on a lightsaber before, thats incredible!
For the next video I'd recommend the team up battle between Obi-Wan, Ventress, Maul and Savage. It was so well shot and had so much subtext to it.
Teach us your ways, Master Full Fat...
Dude, you are so spot on. This "stupid, little cartoon" did so much more for the prequel stories than the movies did and actually showed much more maturity in it's delivery for tension and character.
GENNDY TARTAKOVSKY IS A GOD WHO MADE THIS AND SAMURAI JACKKKKKK!!!!!
Clone Wars 2003 is like Majoras Mask. The blacked sheep that was hated. And now it is an gem!
PLEASE talk more about this show. It is criminally underrated!
Aye!!!!! The mix between SW/Samurai Jack action here is badass as hell, as a martial artist, seeing prequel speed in the show and movies is a breath of fresh air, the moment I’ve seen it as a kid. Still badass to this day, years later.
It legitimately shocks me every time I hear that Greavous only shows up in episode 3 because I was so familiar with him from watching all of these repeatedly as a kid.
The ARC troopers crash landing their LAAT and casually getting out like nothing happened is forever entrained into my memory from this movie
This cartoon was AWESOME!!!
Have no clue why Grievous was nerfed in Revenge of the Sith.
Because he's way more compelling that way. A Vader clone with less personality and a sillier voice isn't very interesting. Movie Grievous is a trick fighter and he's a genuinely cunning and engaging. He even has a better (if brief) fight scene between him and Kenobi. I've adored this show for a long time but Grievous in ROTS is much better IMO, this show he feels like a block of wood that looks and fights kinda cool.
@@VinVonVoom No he's not. Please stop repeating the same comment over and over again.
@@VinVonVoom Nope. The simple reason is because when this show was in production George Lucas simply said "Grievous is the general of the droid armies who carries jedi lightsabers as trophies", and Genndy took that idea and ran with it. Unfortunately midway into the second season George revealed that Grievous was supposed to be a _pathetic Saturday Morning Cartoon villain_ , and Genndy decided he'd compromise and make up something about Mace destroying Grievous' insides with the same technique he used to tear Super Battle Droids apart and break his windpipe to match the movie Lucas had just finished filming.
@@SpecterVonBaren Similar, perhaps but I didn't copy paste anything and I brought up entirely different points. Also calling him a block of wood was just a fun allegory really, bit of an exaggeration.
@@VinVonVoom "A trick fighter" -eh, no? He doesn't do anything smart and then dies. CW Grievous is the one who really is smart and cunning. He is the one who has a vast array of techniques and tactics to fight the jedi.
His duel with Kenobi in ROTS was absolute garbage, lol. Horrendous choreography with Grievous just swinging his lightsabers through the air near Obi Wan's face 90% of the time instead of actually trying to kill him, more than 20 times when Kenobi should have logically died, and the end of it is just silly.
To this day I remember the rain drops sizzling off lightsabers. And the other two scenes you talk about - Grevious as well as Mace - still stick in my mind.
I think I watched PARTS of this show and just once (never saw any more than twice), but I still remember those scenes to this day. ONE other I remember that you didn't mention was the episode where they meet the aliens. I don't remember all the details, but I do remember something to do with his arm and how it kind of presages his future, kind of like the Clone Wars episodes on Mortis.
Great moments that still resonate in my mind all these years later.
The Battle of Hypori is one of my favourite fights in Star Wars. And the soundtrack is just amazing!
I remember catching a few segments on TV back in 03. I loved it. I used to rent the first volume from my local video store all the time. That Grievous cliffhanger. Wow. I never knew the show had a second volume until I got the Internet in 2007. When I finally got to watch the entire series, it blew my mind. I still love this show, and I'm so glad that it was added to Disney+.
You're writing, hilarious! The show itself, incredible! Yes you should continue talking about Star Wars: Clone Wars, you're great when you talk about it. I liked the small fights too, like Kit Fisto fighting under water and Barris Offee and Luminara(?) on the Jedi Crystal world. I forget that one lol we need more!
This show has what it has to be my favorite Duel in all Star Wars, which is Anakin vs. Ventress. Not only is a great piece of animated action, but a masterclass on Visual Storytelling. Gotta love Gendy.
Full Fat, would like to see your take on the Galaxy of Adventures SW shorts! The guys who made those should really get their own show!
cant tell you how many times i have rewatched the series again and again.true star wars inspiration and fix whenever its needed.but please make a second video make sure to include anakin having his braid cut off to become a jedi knight, dooku training grievous and explaining methods to defeat the jedi ,anakin taking on an entire battalion of drone pilots including the trench run, the crystal is the heart of the blade sequence, facing the mirror where he journeys into the nelvan caves to see this future in the prehistoric wall paintings and finally the run and gun battle between grievous his guards, shak ti and 2 other jedi as they try to escort the chancellor into the bunker during the raid on corrusant with special focus of the fight in the train station.a small selection of why we all love this and the reason it will never be replaced by the new clone wars series.
I still remember people complaining about how this series was better than Episode 1 and 2 combined.
Great commentary of the Clone Wars animation. Perfect descriptions of each scene. Yeah man...keep it up. I gotta go back and watch the whole thing all over again now.
When 2003 Grievous is able to scare Shaggy, you know he's a real badass
Anakin vs Ventress in this series is maybe my favorite non film piece of Star Wars media period. Great video!
YEEEES, Finally someone said it! Finally someone agrees with me that this Grevious sounds way cooler! Also yes, please do more videos about clone wars, there isn't enough love on youtube for this show!
It's because the other clone wars dominated and made it the better of the two
Dan the man they completely botched Grievous tho

I wanted so very badly for that scene to end with Mace taking off his cape and saying "Hey kid, catch."
9:48 Not to mention Force users actually use the Force while fighting. I never got why Obi-Wan tried to fist fight Grievous when he could've just lifted him up and dropped him off a platform.
Well Grievous has a grappling hook and magnetic feet + repulsors, so throwing him off that platform would just stall the fight.
@@ForsakenDreamer7 Still better than trying to punch him with his bare hands without using the Force to be fair
@@CriminalGamingHimself Kenobi still used it eventually. He wouldn't have been able to break open Grievous'es armour without the Force.
@@ForsakenDreamer7 True. Maybe would've been clever to so right away though, but who am I to judge the Master of Trolling.
It just doesn't translate realistically/logically to a live action movie, just imagine that Grievous and Obi-Wan are moving too fast to actually see and there isn't time to think or a real opening to use the force offensively on Grievous.
Yess! I am loving all the love this series is getting on TH-cam! I watched sit as a kid and adored it. As I got older I started to appreciate the beauty and nonverbal storytelling of this series.

Underrated comment
fucking gold
@@jor1456 literally
Okay, you have earned the like just for putting Space Jam to Mace Windu’s episode. I applaud you, sir!
I can't stand when people shit on movie Grievous. Dude had so much personality. Sure he was scarier in 2003 CW and more conniving in 2008 TCW, but I love how he has this unspoken rivalry and mutual respect for Kenobi that even appears to lapse into fondness at moments. They even referenced how Windu injured him when Anakin rags on his hunched over posture. He's smart enough to take his ship getting destroyed and turn it into a plan to trap and destroy the Jedi and the chancellor. He has humanity in that movie, and people who make fun of how he was designed to wield more lightsabers are raving about the thing where he just uses lightsabers to be a badass and has no humanity, and to them movie Grievous sucks? What garbage. Sorry, I love you and your videos Full Fat. I just think you're Full of Shit on that point in this Video.
Really the only complaint. Everything else I agree with.
I really enjoy 2003 Grievous, but like the video said, it's basically a night and day difference between the two. 2003 had some of the coolest animation, kick-ass scenes, and a perfectly fitting soundtrack, however 2008 TCW/Movie Grievous has much more personality in my eyes, (though that's probably my nostalgia goggles talking to some degree.) His rivalry with Obi-Wan is by far one of the most interesting things about his character and seeing the two interact in the TCW will always be my favorite interactions in all of Clone Wars. He still shows a cunning, tactical side in TCW/Movie, yet is realistically flawed with arrogance, impatience, and a tinge of cowardice. (Most of his retreats are usually because he's cornered or because his opponent escapes. As the General of a grand army, running would be the smartest thing to do in such moment.)
2003 Grievous is probably seen as more badass by most cause he had a lot less plot armor to work through, plus the 2003 CW was kinda insane with their power levels (in a good way) that made that Grievous appear to be unkillable. TCW/Movie Grievous had his share of cool moments, though the vast majority of them weren't as impactful since they were always against main characters. His last fight with Ahsoka in TCW was pretty cool, and he probably would of won too if it hadn't been interrupted. Eeth Koth V Grievous, though short and with a bit of scummy playing, is also a highlight of TCW Grievous. I don't think Full Fat is "Full of Shit," I just think that, when you lay the facts down, it's just the truth that 2003 Grievous is cooler on the surface, like every character in 2003 CW. That's just my opinion, though.
@@tigerfive1003 I honestly like how you broke that down. I agree full fat isn't full of shit but people have their own opinions. You acknowledged that and I thank you.
@@tigerfive1003 I feel like modern jedi (prequel era) used the force for movement and creativity while the swotor and motor used burst power and force rituals with artifacts gain the advantage on the battlefield I think. This has nothing to do with grievous
@@tigerfive1003 2003 CW Grievous was cool and all but you couldn't have a villain like that in the movies or TCW. He'd overshadow every single other villain, including Dooku and Palpatine, and make them all look like chumps. And he's also pretty one-note. I mean, he's basically just an unstoppable alien Terminator. That would get old pretty fast in a long-running series. Especially since he'd have to lose most of the time anyway.
I agree, I like movie/TCW Grievous because he's got personality. I love how cheap and underhanded he is when the odds are against him, and how he just full-on embraces it and doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks. Like he just blatantly cheats and then starts laughing maniacally about it like it makes him the greatest genius in the universe lol. Movie/TCW Grievous owns. This meme that he sucks because he's a coward needs to die. That's what makes him so lovable.
This is the Grievous we need. A killing machine that stops at nothing to make Jedi suffer.
If you didn’t notice, that temple Ventress and Anakin are fighting on is the rebel base on Yavin-4 from a New Hope
A future rebel base, to be exact. And those temple ruins are of some relation to the sith, if I remember correctly.
@@ForsakenDreamer7 Massassi Temples. I've played too many Star Wars games to ever forget the names.

The Clone Wars is a beautifully and uniquely animated show, but honestly, this has got to be the best Star Wars animation ever.
Yes please ohmygodplease make more videos about 2003 Clone Wars, or really anything from IMO The best era of Star Wars media 2000-2012
Excellent video. I adored this series growing up and still do. It warms my heart to see it receive the love it deserves.
2003 Clone Wars: "They're just clones, sir, they're meant to be expendable"
2008 Clone Wars: "Not to me."
I won't lie, you've brought a new perspective on this show to me. I love, love, LOVE Samurai Jack's art style, but seeing Star Wars with it, especially with some of the choices made- Palpatine, Dooku, Qui-gon, and such- Just... I never got behind it, the look of the characters just peeved me to no end, but you've revolutionized it for me. Positivity does that, I suppose.
I hope that one day we get a General Grievous movie or live action series with Mathew Wood still voicing Grievous but with the presence and skill of Clone Wars 2003 Grievous!
Honestly, I love John DiMaggio's Grievous voice way more, but it's a matter of preference.
I'm so happy more people are realizing the greatness of this series. And I agree, Clone Wars Grievous is the best Grievous.
Video Resumes at 4:15
Definitely do more of this show. It's just excellent.
Personal favourite, following the clones on their siege of that droid controlled city. I think it is arguably the best that the troops have ever looked and it's just so satisfying to watch.
General Grievous is my favorite character!
Both this and the other Clone Wars series were amazing. I dig them. So much.
11:00 keep going mate... I just wish yall had watched it sooner!
This series is masterfully made. The Grievous duel, and especially the Anakin vs. Ventures duel, are some of my favorite lightsaber fights in the entire franchise. Whenever I show someone the movies going forward, I'm at least going to suggest we watch this series between Episodes II and III.
OH MAN
Colin Moriarty & Greg Miller
Damn man, brings me back to those good old days when they would do videos together
Miss those days 😢
PLEASE! This is one of my absolute favorite shows for all of your reasons!! I’d love more content!
Thought Mace Windu had a red lightsaber in the thumb nail for a moment.
I have seen this show probably 25 times. It’s incredible
Mace Windu is an absolute G.
What is that
Let's not forget Kit Fisto's badass showcase of underwater combat
Grievous in 2003 and also in his comic appearances is my favourite Star Wars villain.
Revenge of the Sith was... ok.
It wasn’t his movie and he was only a side character made to be killed off, just like in canon.
But 2008... oh man.
Look how they massacred my boy.
The retcon was a disgrace.
He lost all the attributes that made him threatening, he lost his backstory that actually made his position feel justified and rather tragic.
He turned into a literal saturday morning cartoon villain with a personality to match.
They invented plenty of other fodder characters so why did they have to ruin him?
I think that and the droids being buffoons is all that keeps me turned off from that show, sadly. I can't easily get over those things when Ive seen them treated like serious threats in the past.
Usually when people make statements about Grievous, or how he's portrayed in each medium (EU, movie, TCW) I half agree half disagree, but I'll be honest by saying you summed up my thoughts exactly and I absolutely agree with everything you said.
Damn shame this comment hasn't gotten more traction, but I guess it's not technically a popular opinion, so there's that.
Seems people often forget that Grievous is mortally injured during the events of RotS and the reason he acts differently is because of that, it's not fair to judge someone so poorly based off of the last few days of their life, especially if that problem is he's simply recovering and trying not to die in a weakened state.
It's also overlooked that RotS has like, 12 fights in it, with its runtime and Grievous not being the main antagonist, the content of his fight suffered severely for it, same with Dooku after all.
Absolom Apple
Thank you for your open mind.
Absolom Apple
Though I must stipulate that he is not mortally injured, only severely injured.
@@rustkarl Well I suppose that's fair, I more ment he was mortally injured when Mace nearly killed him, but he heals rather quickly, so as the days pass he heals more, the point is I think people forget he's injured at all.
This video does a good job summing up this show. I think the general audience misconceived the show by its aesthetics without giving it a real chance as it was actually very dark for a kids show with amazing dramatic build ups and the best part being the new characters being introduced.
If you want actual war and nonstop action, Tartakovsky's Clone Wars is the Clone Wars for you.
If you want clones to have character and go a bit more philosophical, Filoni's Clone Wars is the Clone Wars for you.
In the past I've said that Tartakovsky's is the better of the two, but I've come to realize that they've become too different from one another to really say one is better on the whole than the other because they have two very different goals.
But if they don't change anything about the battle of Coruscant and Palpatine's capture in this Final Season of Filoni's Clone Wars, then I argue that what we see in Tartakovsky's still happens because that chase through Coruscant and that train fight is just too awesome to retcon, -which then makes Tartakovsky's the better of the two.-
The anakin vs ventress fight in this show is also where the running gag of whenever anakin fights someone with her sabers (such as barriss) or a dual blade user. When he grips the wrist his his metal hand and they drop it. It's used a few times in the cgi clone wars and I think in rebels but I can't remember.
Yeah i watched the full series on youtube
Bro nailed it. I was chatting w/ some ppl on facebook a few days back tellin em how great the CN Clone Wars series was. What you said about Grievous was what I was trying to put into words. He had skill, tact and an overall commanding presence from his introduction to the final fight between him and Shaak Ti. When he showed up you were just like..oh shit how are they gonna get outta this. The movie version of him was the real cartoon. Just a joke of what he should and could have been.
A suprise to be sure but a welcomed one :)
It's so good to see this show still getting so much love.
Two things
1) I'd love a Mace Windu movie but instead of SLJ, I wouldn't actually mind seeing Michael B Jordan take on the role of a new Jedi Knight sent on his first mission. He just seems perfect for the role in my mind.
2) One of the most underrated moments from the show is the Knighting of Anakin.
If he could lose that thick American accent, it would make an epic movie
I really love how they made jedi fare in different environments. Fisto with his special kyber crystal that allows him to be underwater, saesee tin capturing a separatist ship. And so on

The 2003 clone wars series has one of the best stories
(I’m just saying the story isn’t that good, it’s the action that’s good)
That series was pure gold. Assaj recruiting scenes by Dooku in the arena and later in her resting room ware also iconic. Not the best voice acting though in French, we had the chance to have the same dub voices than in the movies.
And Anakin's and Obi Wan journey in the second part are also a very good story ark, not to mention that we finally get to see a Jedi knighting ceremony !
And Kit Fisto fighting into the waters of Mon Calamari are also a memorable part.
