Star Wars: Clone Wars

My older brother gave me both volumes of the animated series Star Wars: Clone Wars. Andrew and I both regard Samurai Jack as one of the best animated shows ever. Samurai Jack's creator produced these shorts depicting the war that spanned between episodes II and III. The show (especially in volume 2) do an excellent job of depicting the transition of the entire galaxy between the films and no fan of this fantasy universe should go without it. It does a very good job depicting Obi Wan and Anakin's friendship, the role of the jedi in the clone wars, and the events that took place directly before episode III.

I claim this is a must-watch. Even those who are not entirely interested would be entertained for the two hours they last (about an hour each).
