Thanks for the review of Clone Wars. I just can’t bring myself to watch it. I seem to remember a really bad Star Wars mini-movie from the late 1970’s that ruined my mental imagery. Anyone remember what that was? It might have been the Star Wars Holiday Special.
Did it involve Wookies? I distinctly recall one with Wookies…
Yup. That was the one!
P.S. I notice you are using WordPress. One of the nice WordPress plugins I use allows people to subscribe to comments on a post, that way they can get notified by email when someone responds. It has worked well for me, so I thought I would pass that along. It’s just called the WordPress Subscribe to Comments plugin.
