If it's just a cartoon show then it shouldn't getting passed off as real Star Wars. And if it is getting passed off as real Star Wars then it should be judged by that standard.

 

what exactly is 'REAL' star wars?

Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, in the forms they were in before the SE was made.

ok fine..just the movies.. 

But generally, the way it's been, the movies (including the PT and SE) have been what's taken seriously and the rest hasn't, so now it's a big change that an animated movie made of tv episodes is treated as if it's serious Star wars. That's the sense I was using the term "real Star Wars" in that post. I was talking about the EU versus movies divide, and this thing is being included in the movies section when it belongs in the EU section. Yes I don't consider anything from 1997 on to be real Star Wars, but in the sense I meant in that post there's a view that the movies (all of them) are real Star Wars and the Clone Wars seems to be getting included in that.

 

who says the 'rest' haven't been taken seriously? there's a lot of talk about canon in

ESB:R thread...so that's where it breaks down, what everybody thinks is their personal

'canon' compared to the variations on canon from 'George Lucas' ...

it all depends on how you look at it, its all right 'from a certain point of view'..

i'm trying to figure out why the events in the clone wars contradict the original trilogy,

if that's what the problem is...so far i haven't seen it.
