Mise-à-jour #2 : Cette nuit de nombreux protagonistes de The Clone Wars ont laissé un petit mot à l'attention de l'équipe de The Clone Wars et donné leur ressenti suite à l'annonce de Lucasfilm. Nous tenions à vous les faire partager.
Daniel Logan (Boba Fett) : "With the announcement today of the winding down of Star Wars: The Clone Wars I just wanted to say a few things. I am very proud, honoured & thankful to have been a part of The Clone Wars over the years. I want to thank George Lucas, Dave Filoni, Cary Silver, Meagan Finnerty, Tracy Cannobbio, all the cast & crew and especially the fans for making this so fun & fulfilling to be a part of. Star Wars has been a huge part of my life since I was 13 & I am thankful for all it has given me. I am sure my journey with Star Wars has many more adventures & I look forward to all that is in store for the future. There are still a few epic story arcs of The Clone Wars that will be available this year. It is some of the best work Lucasfilm Animation has produced, so stay tuned. MTFBW!"
Tome Kane (Yoda) : "Mere words cannot fully express what The Clone Wars meant to me, not only as a performer, but also as a fan. Dave, Cary, Joel... everyone at LF Animation poured their souls into every frame of this remarkable series. And to my fellow cast members... You are the most talented folks I have ever worked with, period. My only regret is that I got to spend so little time with you. Of course all good things must eventually come to an end, and the Clone Wars was a very good thing, indeed. Thanks to all of you fans who gave us a chance, and embraced us as part of the amazing Star Wars family. You mean the world - no, the galaxy - to us, and you always will. The Force will be with you. Always."
Ashley Eckstein (Ashoka Tano) : "Star Wars The Clone Wars has changed my life forever and I feel privileged to have spent the past 7 years working for George Lucas, Dave Filoni and the entire cast and crew for Lucasfilm Animation. I am beyond thankful to have had the opportunity to work with a team that challenged the standards of excellence in animation and ultimately raised the bar so high for all other projects to come.
I would also like to thank all of YOU! Being a part of the Star Wars Universe has made me a better person because of the opportunities shared and time spent with fans around the world. Thank you for everything you've given me.
Always in motion is the future and the future looks very bright if you are a Star Wars fan. There are so many new stories that are going to be told and a new chapter in the Star Wars Universe is about to begin. Trust me, you're not getting rid of me, I'll still be here loving Star Wars with all of you and talking about it on a daily basis. I can't wait to see what's ahead, but I will be forever grateful to have been the voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars The Clone Wars for 5 seasons. Thank you for going on this journey with me.
May The Force Be With You"
Matt Lanter (Anakin) : "Thank You to the fans and everyone who made the Star Wars Clone Wars so special. We had an amazing run!! 5 seasons of Star Wars awesomeness!"
Matthew Wood (General Grievous) : "It's been an honor and pleasure to be involved in The Clone Wars. I made some friends for life, & took steps into a much larger world."

Mise-à-jour : a priori, d'après le site officiel, comme Cartoon Network n'a plus les droits pour la sixième saison, Lucasfilm et Disney ont décidé de revoir leur copie en ce qui concerne "The Clone Wars". Ils ont toujours des histoires à raconter, mais pour l'heure, ils ne savent pas sous quelle forme : une série sur une des chaînes Disney, en bonus sur DVD/Blu-Ray, autres, nous verrons.
L'information vient de nos confrères de JediNews, cependant rien n'a encore été confirmé du coté de Disney ou de Lucasfilm mais il semblerait bien que le vingtième épisode de la saison cinq de "The Clone Wars" soit le dernier et signe la fin de la série animée. Cette information viendrait directement de plusieurs sources impliquée dans "The Clone Wars" mais non citées.
Nous ne savons pas ce qui va arriver aux épisodes déjà terminés, et prévus pour la saison six, qui avait été annoncée l'année dernière, et peut être qu'un "direct to DVD/Bluray" serait prévu par Disney.
Une présentation est prévue, le 12 Mars, chez Disney quant à sa programmation pour la période 2013-2014, il y aura peut-être une annonce officielle de ce côté là. Pour rappel, "The Cartoon Network" ne dispose des droits de "The Clone Wars"que jusqu'à la saison cinq, qui vient de se terminer le 2 Mars dernier.
Tout comme JediNews, toute l'équipe de Mintinbox se joint à moi pour exprimer nos sincère remerciements à Dave Filoni et toute son équipe de Lucasfilm Animation pour leurs travaux sur Star Wars et "The Clone Wars".
