Star Wars: The Clone Wars/YMMV: Difference between revisions

** The music during the latter parts of the "Brain Invaders" episode was particularly memorable with chanting when Ahsoka fights a brainwashed Bariss Offee in the halls of the ship.

** The tune to which the Republic marches onto the bridge in "Weapons Factory" was surprisingly epic as well.

* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]:

** Cad Bane became one of the most popular characters in the series, as an [[Expy]] of Boba Fett with a cool voice, unusually sinister tendencies, and characteristics of spaghetti-western villains.

* [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: If it moves, it's likely Ahsoka has been paired with it.

* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Palpatine's maneuverings during episodes like 'Destroy Malevolence' where he sends Padme on a diplomatic mission {{spoiler|that [[Xanatos Speed Chess|just so happens]] to lead her right into General Grievous's hands}}; 'Heroes on Both Sides' where he discovers that Mina Bonteri is responsible for sponsoring the Separatist bill to end the war and her subsequent fate, etc. seem to show that the guy can play the odds and adapt like only a [[Magnificent Bastard]] could.

** An inordinate amount of people seem to think that George Lucas is responsible for ''any problems'' with this series. Dave Filoni is the real frontman of the project. To be fair, whole episodes have been written on Lucas' orders, and Dave Filoni has also implied that the show would be rather different if Lucas had not unexpectedly become more involved later in its production.

** Likewise, some misblame Filoni or other writers for disregard of certain EU elements, when, by their account, Lucas exercised [[Executive Veto]] power.

* [[Pandering to the Base]]: David Filoni acknowledged the negative reaction from the first half of the third season (which was focused on heavily on politics, trade blockades, bank interests, and stuff like that) and said that the amount of such episodes will be severely cut down.

* [[Portmanteau Couple Name]]: The ones that are unique to the fandom of this show are: Anisoka, Obisoka, Rexsoka, Luxsoka, Barrisoka... [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships|seeing the pattern here?]]

** Also, Anakin. Originally a [[Base Breaker]] in the movies, he's far more unanimously liked in the series due to his stronger characterization, his decreased tendency for [[Wangst]], and Matt Lanter's voice acting being more well-received than Hayden Christensen's acting.

*** Ahsoka started out with similar levels of hatred to Jar Jar Binks (mostly for her [[Mary Sue]] and [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad]] tendencies), but her flaws have been toned down considerably, to the point that (in a bizarre inversion of sorts) some of the show's detractors actually label her as the ''only'' good character in the series.
