I have added a video comic to the folder, since the Maul: Son of Dathomir comic series is integral to the plot of the series overall despite not being animated.

I thank them for their incredible work and thought it would be great to share here, as it really expands the series and my own fanedits.

I’d watch Son of Dathomir between Episodes V and VI. : )

Hello again!
I’ve been thinking about making a longer version of this Clone Wars film saga that covers more arcs. But I don’t know what to make. Here are my two main ideas:

MAKE 8 FANEDITS (with custom crawls - this version is similar to the current version except it now features Domino Squad as focus characters, so Fives’ arc has more impact in the final films)

  • I - Path of the Padawan (same as current version - Christophsis/Malevolence/Geonosis)
  • II - Corruption on Mandalore (same as current version - Mandalore S2/Mandalore S3/Lux Bonteri [Abridged])
  • III - The Fight for Survival (Domino Squad/The Citadel arcs)
  • IV - Children of Dathomir (same as current episode III - Nightsisters/Return of Maul pt. 1)
  • V - An Untamed Evil (same as current episode IV - Return of Maul pt. 2/Maul on Mandalore)
  • VI - Trials of the Force (same as current episode V - Mortis/Ahsoka Framed)
  • VII - The Clone Conspiracy (Umbara/Order 66 Origins arcs)
  • VIII - Fate of the Republic (Martez Sisters/Siege of Mandalore arcs)

I particularly like those last two arrangements. My current episode VI bothers me because it changes main characters and plots half-way through. This hypothetical “episode VII” would keep Fives and Rex as the main characters throughout their arcs. And “episode VIII” would mostly follow Ahsoka throughout the film.

OR I COULD MAKE 12 CLONE WARS FANEDITS (This series of edits would not use custom opening crawls. I would keep the narrator for the film’s opening, as well as when we transition between arcs - so it’s clear what’s happening and arc transitions are less abrupt.)

Here’s how the openings would go:
Silver Lucasfilm logo
“A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…”
The Clone Wars Intro
Title of film (in place of the quotes usually placed here in the series)
Narrator intro

  • I - Path of the Padawan (Christophsis/Jabba’s Son)
  • II - A Galaxy at War (Malevolence/Geonosis)
  • III - Corruption on Mandalore (Mandalore S2/Mandalore S3)
  • IV - The Fight for Survival (Domino Squad/The Citadel)
  • V - Heroes on Both Sides (Lux Bonteri/A Friend In Need/Onderon)
  • VI - The Seeds of Darkness (Kadavo/Deception)
  • VII - Children of Dathomir (Nightsisters/Return of Maul pt. 1)
  • VIII - An Untamed Evil (Return of Maul pt. 2/Maul on Mandalore)
  • IX - Trials of the Force (Mortis/Ahsoka Framed)
  • X - The Clone Conspiracy (Umbara/Order 66 Origins)
  • XI - The Bad Batch (Bad Batch - this film would be shorter than the others since there’s only one arc with these characters, but it’s important for their upcoming series)
  • XII - Fate of the Republic (Martez Sisters/The Siege of Mandalore)

The second option would probably take longer to create, but I wouldn’t have to make the custom crawls for it (which are very time-consuming).
The first option would be shorter and more focused, and it would fit great with Porkerrican’s Rebels Saga (which has eight films as well). The second option would feature more arcs than option one, though it would be four films longer.

What do you all think? Which option sounds better? Or is my series fine as it is? (Keep in mind that the current versions would remain available either way.)

I like the idea of expanding your movie series onto eight edits that mirrors Porkerrican’s Rebels Saga plus seeing more Ahsoka in the future is a plus. If your able to keep it as tight as your current edits without breaking the current pacing and not adding too much to lengths its worth considering.

I’m still going through your current edits and have to say the pacing is very good with them and coin a thrase they are: Faster, More Intense. 😉👌

If you’re going to update your edits, something that I would suggest is maybe adding in some more Ventress. I feel like we don’t see her enough before Dooku turns on her, maybe add the episode with the duel between Ahsoka, Luminara, and Ventress. Looking forward to updates!

Thanks for your input! : )

I agree that there is a lack of Ventress in my edits. But it’s hard to add more because her only appearances (prior to the Nightsisters arc) are in the following episodes:

“The Hidden Enemy”
“The Clone Wars - Film”
“Ambush”
“Cloak of Darkness”
“ARC Troopers”

Cutting the original film unfortunately removed a lot of her content. If I make the version that keeps the original film, then that saga would potentially have more Ventress.

Adding “ARC Troopers” in the hypothetical 8-film saga’s Episode III would also add in some more Ventress, since she features in that episode.

Either way, I’ll try to add in more Ventress content. : )

—————

I have another question:
Do you guys prefer custom opening crawls or narration? I’ve kind of been leaning forwards keeping the narration since it was in the original show and flows better (and I can use it to transition between arcs better). Plus it’s easier to do since I don’t have to make crawls from scratch.
But then I can’t really add plot elements like changing the “emergency” in Film I. That means I’d have to keep the Jabba’s Son arc instead of swapping it for the Malevolence arc.

I think the narration idea could work well for an 8 episode saga, keeping it true to the originals.
As for Film I, you could always splice the intro from the malevolence arc into the opening?

Current Edits:
Obi-Wan Kenobi - TBC
The Mandalorian (Season 1) - V1 Complete
The Mandalorian II (Season 2) - TBC
The Mandalorian Returns (TBOBF) - TBC

Thanks for your suggestion; I’ll try to splice the Malevolence intro into the opening narration and see how it works. : )

As these are presented as StarWars movies you really should go with crawl, plus as you said you can weave the stories text to your liking. extra effort but well worth the end results 😎👍

I think I’ve decided to go with the crawls. I was making some last night and cropping them, and it’s not as difficult as I remember. : )

One more question: should I leave the abridged Lux Bonteri arc at the end of Episode II? I feel like it seems kind of out-of-place since Ahsoka is older there, and the stories don’t take place on Mandalore unlike the other ones in that episode. But I need the Lux Bonteri episodes to explain Ahsoka’s past with Bo-Katan and Death Watch for the last film.
What do you all think?

I PM’d you for links a moment ago, but ended up deciding to post here as well; I saw that your eight-film version is well underway which is exciting! I’m only just beginning to download, but I do personally think that 8 films would work best. That said, taking the upcoming series into consideration it seems like Bad Batch would be really important to slot in somewhere. Maybe in lieu of the Martez Sisters arc?

I actually recently created a new eight-film saga. The Bad Batch arc isn’t included, because it just doesn’t really connect directly to other arcs. But maybe when Bad Batch comes out that arc can be included as a “pilot” arc of sorts for that series. : )

I’ve updated the original post to explain my new eight-film saga. : )

Please PM me if you’d like to get those too. I updated the link to the six-film version too, but I believe I sent that out to everyone who’s had it before.

Author

Okay, I changed it and just threw all the edits from each version of the saga into the same folder. The ones from the six-film saga are numbered as “6-1”, “6-2”, and so on, and the eight film ones are like “8-1”, “8-2”, etc.

That should make it where everyone has access to all the films. : )

Love what you are doing here. Makes introducing the Clone Wars to new watchers much more digestable.

I sent you a DM as well. Would love links to the 6 and 8 part sagas! Have a good New Year.

I’m really interested in this, the 8 film version, please. 😃

Hello,
I just wanted to let everyone know that these fanedits are no longer available. There are a few reasons for this, but one is because I feel like sharing files with others online puts the security of my storage account at risk. I apologize to everyone who has asked for links, but the edits are not available anymore.

I have updated the main post and changed the thread name to reflect this change.
