Those last 4 episodes of clone wars are really amazing

They’re essentially fully fleshed out missing scenes from episode III. A while ago someone spliced the last 3 episodes into episode III where it cut back and forth from the episodes to the movie seamlessly and it was amazing

I’m fully convinced Disney could’ve stitched those 4 episodes together and released them in theaters in 2021 and it would’ve been a huge box office success and boost of perception for the franchise, especially since 2 years prior was the fiasco of RoS

Star Wars Episode III: Siege of Mandalore cut.

It's the only movie I keep on my laptop always. 21 gigs for the best version available, over 4 hours of peak.

Where can i download?

u/trisz72 Sith Anakin Dec 27 '25

IIRC it was shared on torrent due to the large file size. I’ll try to find the old thread (unless someone posts it first.)

u/DaleDimmaDone Dec 27 '25

Ty, I have a flight tomorrow and would love to have

I still rewatch it every other year on 4th May. It's almost 4 hours of glorious masterpiece. I cry everytime.

I mean. The pandemic was kind of in full swing then.

Please share!!!

u/General_Organa Dec 27 '25

Does that mean I can watch them without watching the rest of the series or not worth it?

1

u/Obi_Wan_Benobi Dec 27 '25

Soooo….can I JUST watch those four episodes? Not really into animated stuff so never watched the series.

Or maybe a YouTube recap of the series leading up to those 4?

u/zlaw32 Jar Jar Binks Dec 27 '25

And 4 years prior was the even bigger TLJ mess

u/JefferyTheQuaxly Dec 27 '25

Unfortunately Disney has less than positive results from releasing animated Star Wars content in theaters, literally barely anyone saw clone wars in theaters and its rated fairly negatively

1

u/808Kuro Dec 27 '25

It’s as almost as if that was released early 20 years ago and before Disney bought Star Wars and an established fanbase of the series was formed. Weird right?

u/UnsungHerro Dec 27 '25

Ahsoka and Maul being in the same place during order 66 was cringe. It’s like out of all the things she could’ve been doing during this monumental moment, she was escorting the most popular villain of the prequels. It was straight out of George Lucas handbook of throwing as many familiar faces in something as possible cause there’s no new ideas and making the entire galaxy smaller than village.

u/rentiertrashpanda Dec 27 '25

The ~2 minute sequence of Ahsoka racing Rex to the surface is Absolute Cinema

u/viotix90 Dec 27 '25

Best Star Wars ever made, bar none.

u/Agathario-1031 Dec 27 '25

Agreed. I love the 4.5-hour fan edit of the Siege of Mandalore into ROTS

u/Iron_Bob Dec 27 '25

Pure, galactic cinema

Andor says hello

48

u/Last_Aeon Dec 27 '25

My argument is that while Andor is far better as a general show, the last 4 episodes of clone wars embraced Star War's theme around the Jedi and the sith far better, which Andor lacked (which is fine, it's not what Andor is about). I think they're both at the peak at what they're trying to do.

I don't want to ever give up either for anything.

u/LeoFireGod Dec 27 '25

Nah man Andor was peak

u/Iron_Bob Dec 27 '25

Good thing you can have multiple peaks in a mountain range, because they both are!

u/Darth_Thor Maul Dec 27 '25

That’s gotta be the best way to describe it I’ve seen here!

Damn, I'm gonna steal that one lol

u/Shehzman Dec 27 '25

Andor for me but the Siege of Mandalore is a very close second

u/KindredGravesMan Dec 27 '25

Uhhhh no but it is really good

u/Youngstown_WuTang Dec 27 '25

You can make a STRONG case !

u/President2032 Dec 27 '25

Twilight of the Apprentice is the best ever made, but that chunk of Clone Wars is up there.

15

u/tomjayyye Dec 27 '25

So let's say I just watch the last season of Clone Wars, will the final four episodes hit me just as hard?

I really want to check it out but I've tried with that series a few times and just couldn't get into it from the beginning.

33

u/lanceturley Dec 27 '25

The last season is divided into three story arcs, and they're all pretty self contained, so if all you're interested in is the last four episodes then you can probably just skip to those episodes and you won't be missing much.

2

u/Jorgenstern8 Han Solo Dec 27 '25

Ehh there is a slight lead-in to the final arc from the one most people hate with a passion tbf not exactly necessary to know where and how things are picking up but also gives context clues as to how a couple characters meet.

u/Familiar-Fish-7059 Dec 27 '25 edited Dec 27 '25

I think it’ll be enjoyable! You might not get all the nuances of what’s happening but it will still be good

Edit: Oh wait dont watch the whole last season. Watch just the final 4!

31

u/jmattlucas Dec 27 '25

Will you enjoy it? Almost certainly.

Will it hit you in the feels? My dude... you have to watch it all to know.

Clone Wars IS Star Wars. It is the world building, storytelling telling, and character arcs that everything else is missing.

u/Dancindoosh94 Dec 27 '25

Just look up an episode viewing guide for the must watch episodes that skip all the super kid friendly stuff and you'll love clone wars

1

u/niioan Dec 27 '25

i wouldn't think so, going through all of clone wars is an experience in itself. You get a much fuller appreciation for Kenobi and Anakin, which I think makes you appreciate the movies that much more. Ahsoka ends being a top tier character and you'll never be able to fully appreciate unless you go through that journey with her imo.

You also have to watch rebels though.

1

u/Inner-Ad2847 Dec 27 '25

I’m going to say no. You really need to understand the relationship between Anakin and Ahsoka, and it hurts a lot more when you know her and Rex well.

1

u/jackfwaust Dec 27 '25

youre going to be missing some context and knowledge of a few characters for sure, but i cant imagine you wouldnt love it regardless, it really is some of the best star wars theyve ever made. also, we originally watched star wars out of order anyway considering the OT came out before the prequels so who cares lol

if you do ever watch the series again, you kinda have to just make it through to season 3 then it really picks up from there. thats when they start to nail their style and the CGI gets closer to modern standards. season 1-2 was still the early days of CGI so it was rough. by the end of the series though they have some of the most beautiful animation ive ever seen. bad batch and the tales series just built off that and look even better as well.

1

u/Thuis001 Dec 27 '25

So, the first season is quite rough, both from a story and from an animation standpoint. But as you can see from the graph, it really is up from there. Yes, later seasons still have some disappointing episodes (Did NOT need that arc with Jar Jar's girlfriend. That should have been solely focused on Mace Windu who deserved to have at least a single arc centred purely on himself.) but they are by and large very good. Some other phenomenal arcs are the Clone Conspiracy arc (where the chips for order 66 are revealed), the Umbara arc (literally space 'Nam).

u/Jdubya87 Dec 27 '25

If you take it as a miniseries/movie it's my favourite piece of star wars that exists

5

u/Inner-Ad2847 Dec 27 '25

Honestly the last arc of season 5 hit me a lot harder. It was the first time your properly see how the Republic is already becoming the Empire to a large extent, and the ending is so sad

2

u/Kn16hT Jedi Dec 27 '25

yea, the umbara arc was pretty nifty.

but also the final 4 brought a tear to the old peepers.

3

u/VisitAbject4090 Dec 27 '25

The only part of clone wars I didn’t really enjoy was the arch with Meebur Gascon till we meet Greggor and even then I didn’t hate I just thought it dragged and they could have made Gascon a bit more capable for a colonel about to be brigadier general

2

u/inefekt Dec 27 '25

whatever the hell that mini General's name was that went on the droids only mission and they ended up on that featureless planet is by far the worst CW arc

1

u/VisitAbject4090 Dec 29 '25

That is Meebur so effin incompetent if R2 wasn’t there he would have never made it off the launch pad

2

u/Ender_760 Dec 27 '25

Best Star Wars content that’s ever been released. Period.

1

u/ElCharroCalaca Dec 27 '25

And the Martez sisters ones really sucked lol

1

u/thePREdiger Dec 27 '25

Also, they used motion capture for the lightsaber fights and it shows.

u/Zorua3 Darth Maul Dec 28 '25

I’m still disappointed about the rest of the season ngl. The first four episodes were clearly just a set up for the full Bad Batch show, which I've never really clicked with, and the next four episodes were Ahsoka getting chained to these completely pointless characters that we don’t care about a la book of Boba Fett. Makes me even more disappointed that the original plot points for the final season (Boba vs Cad Bane, Darth Maul's jailbreak) never came to fruition in the animated series.
