My oldest son is 5 and I know he will want to see this in the theater. He loves the Clone Wars cartoons and asks to watch them all the time (ADM's version). BTW, I've never understood people's dislike for Tartakovsky's Clone Wars cartoons. I always joked that they are the best of the prequels. They're filled with moments that just feel like Star Wars: good character development, oodles of properly-done OT references, speederbike jousting, clonetroopers hurling through space to board another ship, and to top it off, a pretty likeable Anakin. I could do without the Kit Fisto and Mace segments from part one though.

Anyway, I feel like the continuity pooch has been screwed, so I'm learning to not think about that so much. I see every new thing with the Star Wars label as basically "based on Star Wars". If this new series can capture a little of the Star Wars magic and not slap me in the face with the trademark Lucas attempts at humor, I might enjoy it. I'll definitely give it a shot.

I think it will all boil down to how much DIRECT involvement Lucas has had in this project. The less involvement, the better. I've come to realize that George doesn't really get what makes Star Wars great.
