Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Directed by Dave Filoni, this animated film chronicles the Clone Wars sweeping through the galaxy, as the heroic Jedi Knights struggle to maintain order. More and more systems are falling prey to the forces of the dark side as the Galactic Republic slips further under the sway of the Separatists and their droid army. Anakin Skywalker (voiced by Matt Lanter) and his Padawan learner Ahsoka Tano (Ashley Drane) find themselves on a mission that brings them face-to-face with crime lord Jabba the Hutt. But Count Dooku (Christopher Lee) and his sinister agents, including Asajj Ventress (Nika Futterman), will stop at nothing to ensure that Anakin and Ahsoka fail at their quest. Rated PG. Gecko Preview and 4-Minute Clip

I really want to see Vicky, but Clone Wars can wait. Forever. I’m still baffled that Fly Me to the Moon exists, and involves Tim Curry to boot. WHY TIM WHY?
