Star Wars: Clone Wars on DVD, Blu-ray November 11, 2008

Stinky the Hutt
By now, most die-hard Star Wars fans are in two camps - those who loved the original trilogy and refuse to acknowledge that the prequels are canon; and those who worship at the alter of Lucas, the once indie young hotshot who has turned into the very soul-sucking corporation he sought to fight against in his early years (just watch THX 1138). Well, in any event, the latest Star Wars flick, titled Star Wars: The Clone Wars, is coming to DVD and Blu-ray on November 11, 2008.

The film, which is an animated feature and a sort of kick-off to an animated TV series, follows the adventures of legendary Jedi Knights Anakin Skywalker (pre-Vader), Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Yoda and the rest as they fight an epic battle against the dark forces in the Galaxy. All of this happens between Star Wars: Episode II and Episode III. The DVD (at least the 2-disc edition) and Blu-ray are packed with extra features including deleted scenes, a sneak peak at the upcoming animated series, webisodes, and all other sorts of trans-media, franchise-happy goodies. The asking price is $28.98 for the DVD or $34.99 for the two disc special edition. The Blu-ray will run you $35.99.

My feelings on the film? Stinky the Hutt. That’s all I’m going to say.
