It’s a shame, since so many things can be done in animation that just feel cheesy or lame in live-action. I don’t think Mortis or Yoda’s vision quest would be anywhere near as good if Clone Wars was a live-action show.
Yep, totally agreed. I also think it’s budget related, by Star Wars standards Rebels was a lower budget series but was still able to pull off big battles such as the battle of Atollon. I’m guessing that live action series, despite being well funded, would struggle to pull off something close to that scale.
It remains to be seen as the live action shows increasingly become larger scale, I think.
