Clone Wars - Defenders of Peace - Review

Defenders of Peace

While the Jedi combat a new Separatist weapon, the pacifist Lurmen must decide whether they will lay down to the oppressive Separatists or fight with Anakin, Ahsoka and Jedi General Aayla Secura.

This one was pretty straightforward. Bad guys invade planet, Jedi protect the inhabitants. There wasn't much else in the way of plot other than the Irish, Sonic the Hedgehog lemurs arguing amongst themselves whether to fight or not. Otherwise, it had decent action pieces, which seems to be par for the course with the series overall. Nothing really to complain about other than, well, the series seems to have more of a focus on adventure than on actually getting to know any of the characters. It'd be nicer if there was just a tad more depth to it, but it still isn't a bad show. And it was kind of cool that Mr. Sulu played a fat Neimoidian general.

Next time on Clone Wars...

Trespass

While investigating the disappearance of a clone security force, Anakin and Obi-Wan get caught in the middle of an escalating conflict between the furry territorial inhabitants of a desolate ice world and the greedy representatives of a nearby moon.
