Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
A schoolgirl girl band. And Ahsoka. Oh, Japan. (From The Clone Wars panel – the band is AKB48, and it seems Dave Filoni does most of the talking.) Also: Steve Sansweet in a kimono yukata, Mark Hamill and George Lucas in Carbonite. (Okay, mildly surprising.)
The Associated Press got an early peek at The Clone Wars and chatted with Dave Filoni about the movie. Their take is pretty positive, but they do manage to cite least one detail that outdoes the hilarity/horror of “punky muffin.” Here’s hoping it sounds better in context…
The Clone Wars character designs look a tad less wonky as actual drawings, but I’m not sure that angle is the most appropriate angle for Ahsoka… (Full spread: The Clone Wars #1, The Clone Wars #2, Shipyards of Doom, Crash Course.)
And while we’re on the topic of Dark Horse, a preview for Knights of the Old Republic #31.
EU Cantina spotted these over at Latino Review. Thoughts?

We heard Friday back in April (and Rebelscum rumored it not too long ago as well) but now Sci-Fi Wire is saying that the Cartoon Network will be airing their action-adventure block on Saturday. Real change or error? (Thanks, Stooge!)
Holy press crush Batman! And they like it! (Mostly.) Yes, more spoilers.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette‘s Tuned-in Journal (It’s a blog, dude: Just call it a blog) has a surprisingly detailed description of the episode’s contents. Worth noting: It made a ‘a positive impression.’
Spoilers are black-barred and reproduced beneath the cut. Continue reading “Journalists see full episode of The Clone Wars“
Disembodied heads stuck on vehicles? Okay! And they’re actually giving us more than The Clone Wars: Wicket, Vader, Chewie, Leia, Luke and Han are among the strange bobbleheadesque figures in a promotional sheet found by Rebelscum. And like the ROTS Burger King figures, there are a lot of them… Not as many as BK, but more than your usual Happy Meal assortment. Still, creepy.
Oh well. The kids will probably love it.
