Obviously, I realize not everybody has the time to marathon six seasons of anything before The Force Awakens, let alone a niche series that takes place between two (widely panned) Star Wars movies. (Luckily, every single episode is now available to stream on Netflix!) It's also one of the last Expanded Universe projects to still be considered canon by Disney. The series first aired on Cartoon Network in 2008 and ran for six seasons.
#STAR WARS BOUNTY HUNTER GAMECUBE EASY WAY TO MARK MOVIE#
Ultimately, it comes down to taste, and assuming you’ve watched all the Saga movies in some order, you’re already in good shape for the next Star Wars movie that comes out.īut here’s where things start to get interesting.įor the uninitiated, Star Wars: The Clone Wars is an animated TV show set between the events of Episodes II and III. The recent release of Episodes VII and VIII complicates things even further in terms of viewing order, but, honestly, I don’t think there’s a “wrong” way to watch the Saga movies. (Don’t tell anyone, but I sometimes skip Episode III, since, for me, it diminishes the “big twists” in V and VI.) Personally, I like to go IV, V, I, II, III, VI - which is basically just a modified version of the Machete Order. Still others might cut out I, II, and III altogether, but that kind of defeats the purpose of a comprehensive marathon. Star Wars guru George Lucas would tell you that I, II, III, IV, V, VI is the way his films are meant to be viewed, but some fans would argue that release order- IV, V, VI, I, II, III-is the way to go. Now, I mention “chronological order” because there are several schools of thought on which order is the best way to watch the movies.
