>I mean for fuck's sake why did they even make the battle droids talk at all, they are droids built for the sole purpose of waging war, they are not supposed to have a personality. Couldn't they just communicate in binary instead of basic when they are among themselves through some sort of communication network similar to the Holonet.
You want battle droids to become the Geth? Then they should get smarter as more of them are around and when their numbers dwindle it's easier to rout or take them out.
>And don't even get me started on Grievous and how they downgraded him to a raging idiot who can't even beat a Padawan like Ahsoka who just got of training in the academy and who is incapable of winning a single battle if its against the Republic or any of the main characters of the series.
The only time Grievous was ever treated like a dangerous badass was in the Tarakovsky Clone Wars cartoon that played as the setup to Episode III. He only uses his four-arm trick once at the very end of the series. Despite the problems Tartakovsky had like >>11943 said, the story was weak and the art wasn't exactly something I liked, even though Samurai Jack was fine, he made up for it with quality action scenes. Because he, unlike Prequels Lucas or Disney or JJ, understood that villains and antagonists should be as powerful or even more threatening and dangerous than the already powerful main characters. Otherwise there's no real tension and the action scenes become vacuous.
>Now I know its supposed be targeted towards kids
Strange, the people I talked to who watched the Original Trilogy in theaters when they were kids claimed that Star Wars was considered a kids movie. I wonder how we went backwards from not being shy of violence towards the heroes or even losing like in Empire. It should be no surprise that they didn't like any of the new stuff Disney made for Rebels or Episode VII
>it would give a chance for the Separatists to redeem themselves for all the shitty things they apparently did during the clone wars if nothing else
That always confused me. Why were Separatists declared bad guys for no reason other to have battle scenes between clones and their droids? Sure a few of the leadership and his loyal followers were dark side users and carried big scary red lightsabers, but even they don't commit enough atrocities to justify a galaxy wide war. And the fact that outside of stuff like the Umbara and resistance arcs in TCW, there were hardly any parties involved in the war outside of clones and droids. The rest just funneled money to build warships I guess. I never felt like anything was ever at stake in this war; nothing to gain if you win, nothing to lose if you lost. So what was the fucking point of this whole war? Just a contrived over-convoluted way of getting SHEEV to become the Emperor?
