Volume 2 of the stylish animated series Star Wars: Clone Wars picks up where volume 1 left off, with General Grievous threatening a group of Jedi. The war between the Republic and the Separatists continues to rage, and due to desperate need, Anakin Skywalker is bestowed the title of Jedi Knight, though he must undergo one final rite of passage by traveling to the frozen planet of Nelvan. The action is at its fiercest when the Separatists launch an overwhelming assault on Coruscant, and Masters Windu and Yoda get to show their stuff to defend the city. However, it's just a diversion from the main goal: Grievious's attempt to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. In the series' most dramatic moment, Shaak Ti and other Jedi try to fend off the droid's attack. Clone Wars Volume 2 aired on the Cartoon Network in March 2005, and it's a bit more substantial than volume 1, taking place in five 12-minute chapters (nos. 21-25) rather than 3-minute chapters. And while volume 1 was mostly flat-out action, the developments in volume 2 lead directly to the opening of Episode III, Revenge of the Sith. And you even get small tidbits such as C-3PO (again voiced by Anthony Daniels) unveiling his new gold look, Padme sporting a cinnamon-bun hairdo, and the reason why General Grievous has difficulty breathing. Let casual fans content themselves with the feature films; Clone Wars remains essential viewing for the Star Wars aficionado. (Rated Y7 for cartoon action and violence) --David Horiuchi
DVD features
In both a commentary track and a featurette, Genndy Tartakovsky and his creative team discuss the making of Clone Wars and how it ties into Episode III, Revenge of the Sith. If you're not a fan of the Lego Star Wars, you might become one after you watch the amusing "Revenge of the Brick" trailer. There's also the same Xbox demo of Battlefront II that was on the Sith DVD, and the Dolby 5.1 sound is an improvement over volume 1's 2.0 Surround. --David Horiuchi

this and the other volume are well worth seeing and owning. my kids and i watch them all the time, after awhile you dont even feel like it is a cartoon , the voices, the animation, the story. all superb!! better than the computer animated series by far!

Originaly these were 5 minute episodes done for Cartoon Network & then put together in these two volumes. I look at these & the current CG Clone Wars & wonder "why isn't the CG Clone Wars as good as this?"
As far as I'm concerned these are the true "Episode(s) 2.5". If you're a Star Wars fan & also like animation, you do yourself a disservice by not having both volumes in your collection. Fair warning though, after seeing volume two of this collection you'll be dissapointed in General Grievious in Episode 3.

Star Wars--Clone Wars is a lot of fun to watch. The adventures of Obi Wan and Anakin and the other Jedi are great swashbuckling adventure. This installment, Volume 2, features longer episodes and achieves a flow of story which is superior to Volume 1 as a result, though both volumes are good. If you don't likne anime, you probably won't like this, as it was George Lucas' interest in anime that led to this series. Volume 2 chronicles the events which lead directly to the opening scene of Star Wars Episode 3--Revenge of the Sith, so if you always wondered how General Grievous got a hold of the Chancellor, all is revealed here.

This is a must have for a true fan of the greatest movie saga ever made!

It was cool! I'm a Star Wars fan and didn't see it when it was on TV and had to get it.
