It’s Just a Damn Clone Wars Poster, People
I had no intention of posting on this, but since every other entertainment site has, I figured I’d better jump on the bandwagon. Above, you can see the poster for the upcoming Clone Wars movie/series. The character models still look like hell. There’s still Anakin’s female padawan Ahsoka, a grim reminder that this show will be Lucas’ attempt to make Star Wars appeal to girls. I’m not excited. I don’t know why everyone else is.
In slightly more interesting Clone Wars news, there will be a new trailer debuting tonight at 7:58 pm on TNT, TBS, Cartoon Network, Boomerang and CNN. I’ll likely have it for you tomorrow, so don’t go out of your way to watch it.
