Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the Clones rally to defend Kamino from a Separatist invasion lead by Asajj Ventress and General Grievous in this episode of The Clone Wars.
We are returning to our re-watch of The Clone Wars this week with a discussion of “Arc Troopers.” This episode was the second episode from season three. When the Republic intercepts a communication from Asajj Ventress detailing a plan to invade Kamino, they must move quickly to prevent the loss of their cloning facilities and their ability to fight this war. This episode features themes of what home means to the Clones and belonging. Also, Asajj Ventress and General Grievous meet for the first time and take on Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. It is a great episode of The Clone Wars, and we are excited to discuss it in this episode of Podcast Stardust.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Our overall thoughts on this episode,
- How and why the Clones think of Kamino as home and if it makes sense,
- The first meeting between Asajj Ventress and General Grievous,
- How The Clone Wars works so hard to protect one line of dialogue from Revenge of the Sith,
- A controversial kiss and its history,
- Clone 99, and more.
