Can you feel the Force?

The Star Wars phenomena isnt over. If you think it ended with the finale of the second trilogy of films, you wrote it off too soo. LucasArts are about to launch another assault on the youth Sci-Fi market with the continuing Star Wars adventures with The Clone Wars. The animated show focuses on the years between Episode 3 and Episode 4, a period refered to in the films as the Clone Wars. The look and feel of the characters and the animation are quite stylised and in keeping with the asthetic of the films, and with the Lucas marketing dollars behind it, will be a massive success post its August '08 launch.

LucasArts itself had a low key presence at the recent Licensing Show in New York but the video screens on the stand were showing long sequences from the forthcoming series, but having watched the showreel several times during the course of the show, I can't predict anything other than 'hit' for this one.
