I second Gem's call to do the whole thing in animated form. (:
I liked the way Mace and Yoda used their powers as much as/more than their sabres. I always imagined that the most powerful force-wielders would be able to do most damage just by wielding the force. The bit where Yoda pushes that force back into its dropship then throw it at another is awesome. Another awesome moment is where Mace smashes Grevious with just one force "push".
I'm going to have to see the film now, which is annoying.
I liked the fact it wasn't quite so 'focussed' as the films are. The films are all mainly about the 'main' adventure group with occassional slip offs to see what the others are up to. Here the other characters are all more developed and get their own primetime... in the films the jedi council was just a bunch of chars, here they actually HAVE character :3
We get eps dedictated to mace windu, the council members (the funny lady with the racoon tails for hair feels like some kind of main char), the elite troopers and even grevious get his ample share of stage time <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I like the banter better too, there just seems more depth to me overall and the characters are more identifiable ^^

I *pray* that 25 wasn't the end of these, cause that last episode was effin AWESOME.
A 4 lightsaber'd bastard? Man, Lucas is gonna have to actually try hard to ruin this setup.

And how about Windu riding on that droid ship? That was <b>amazing</b>.

Yus, because that's what they are. Some people call M-16s "guns" and we don't make a big deal out of that, do we?
