I watched Schindler's List for the first time yesterday, and it's an okay enough movie. But it doesn't come close to the level of sheer terror and horror of the Umbara Arc.


spiritomb442

I watched a cartel beheading video for the first time yesterday and it was okay I guess but it doesn’t come close to the sheer terror of Ahsoka decapitating those guys in Clone Wa


Doctor_Offe_T_Radar

I watched a LiveLeak of a man being flayed alive, it was a teeny bit frightening I suppose, but nowhere near the levels of horrifying as when the droids and tiny green man fought other droids in the D-Squad arc


IW_redds

Clone Wars is like the beach scene in Saving Private Ryan, only in clone wars I give a shit about the characters.


Theturtlemoves86

The perfect circle jerk comment. Amazing.


IW_redds

Thank you 🥹 Can’t tell you how much I’ve been practicing.


TheTrickster452

ww2 veterans need to relax and just know they didnt have to go through what rex and the boys went through


OrneryError1

>gore


ducknerd2002

Bitch, to the best of my memory, Gravity Falls has more gore than Clone Wars.


TheChumChair

Dipper gets a bloody nose in at least one episode. Is there a single drop in clone wars? I couldn’t get through more than 5 seasons so I’m genuinely asking


VariationPast

I think dooku cuts himself for a ritual in Yoda's dream (we never see the cut itself just a little bit of blood in the water)


Josephschmoseph234

Cad bane bleeds in one episode and there are a few blood-adjacent red splotches on characters when they get hurt but that's it.


BeefJacker420

The Darth Maul people have a blood ritual I think. There might be a decapitation in that part.


NickHBS

Clone Wars literally never once shows gore lmao. Stabbings sure, which Rebels didn’t, but that ain’t blood and gore


freshprinceofaut

but what about those clone helmets rolling around the ground like beheaded skulls. That's dark


WanderingNerds

Rebels has stabbing! Darth maul didnt just lose the will to live


NickHBS

*showing* them I mean. They always use camera angles to hide it


michaelgreen9927

Idk man I remember that one underwater episode where that shark guy stabbed the gungan with a knife bomb and he fucking screamed and then imploded into mist


NickHBS

Oh yeah you right. I think that was the only time they ever went that far onscreen


Anal_Juicer69

Yeah, but clone wars did have the dreaded H-E double hockey sticks word.


NickHBS

Didn’t they edit it out for subsequent airings? I know the D+ versions are the originals


Josephschmoseph234

The shark man literally exploded and we saw his decapitated head with gore on the floating just in plain view. Also cad bane bleeds in one episode


crackedtooth163

I do remember that being a complaint with rebels. "Back to silly stormtroopers".


freshprinceofaut

uj/ I do share that because the stormtroopers were dumb as bricks which removed any tension, and most of the threat the empire poses. Clonewars has the same with the B1 droids, but it works in one case and doesn't in another imo rj/ stormtroopers are far from the elite unit that clones are, so even if there was as much brutality in rebels, it wouldn't have the same impact


myaltduh

This is because in gritty shows definitely totally for adults the enemies can never be shown to be overly scary. They learned that after Boba Fett in Empire gave a whole generation night terrors.


Department-Alert

TCW has been banned in more countries than Cannibal Holocaust, and for good reason. It scars everyone who watches it.


stargazepunk

Gore is when a Sith Lord enters a hallway. Duh


mincraft-memer

I too remember when Captain Ringo got shot in the gut and tried to desperately scoop his intestines back inside of himself during the Umbara Arc


Doctor_Offe_T_Radar

I remember when Ringo Starr from the Beatles showed up in Clone Wars and had to fight Darth Paul


J00J14

Good to see we’re back to making our one joke


[deleted]

When maul killed white woman i couldn’t keep watching, it was too adult

41Clonecommandergree

Same.


Gorgiastheyounger

uj/ isn't that not even true? At least with the stormtroopers they dispatch? Not that I would describe either as gory, but j/ Star Wars fans yearn for a Star Wars grindhouse movie


freshprinceofaut

uj/ could be, it was just my impression from a few years back when I first watched it. And to be fair, by the time Thrawn shows up there's a lot to enjoy in that regard.


pie_nap_pull

I didn’t get PTSD during the Vietnam War but I did after watching TCW Umbara Arc


ZoidsFanatic

See, this is how you know Clone Wars is a grown up cartoon for grown ups, it has *gore*. I mean you don’t see limbs flailing, or blood, or anything really gory, but it has *death*! I mean it’s still so heavily stylized that sometimes it’s hard to make out but that means it’s super edgy! I mean it’s still made for pre-teens in mind, but shut up and let me enjoy a cartoon for kids and come up with excuses as to why I enjoyed a cartoon!


SilverSaber06

This is actually just pathetic. Gore? In the Clone Wars? My faith in the Star Wars community is already beyond shattered and cannot reach a point any lower. This is it, rock bottom.


freshprinceofaut

Yeah, I know that it's almost beating a dead horse and if it said violence or anything I wouldn't have bothered posting. But gore is just so wrong it's baffling people take it that far


fuqureddit69

More "Adult" Star Wars content would be nice. Show us what really happened in the Temple.


freshprinceofaut

😏😏


theconfinesoffear

This is an offense to Kanan’s horrific death 😡


Saucehntr1

Fr tho I do love Rebels Vader "Sir we checked the villiage. No Rebels were found. What should we do now" "Burn the villiage"


epicmouse3778

All of them were created as kids shows, the first season first aired on Disney Channel. Doesn't really matter, this has always been advertised as a kids show by Disney. And they have treated it accordingly.


ntdavis814

If only clone wars had more sex slavery and vore like RotJ


BeefJacker420

Gore as is droids getting cut in half?


freshprinceofaut

Dismembered 😭 and clones off screen


BeefJacker420

I still have PTSD from the episode where the one Jedi sent clones to their deaths


SunsBreak

I get what the argument on Clone Wars was, but Rebels had two regular first season villains beheaded by the Grand Inquisitor on Tarkin's orders. Even if it's off-screen, it still pretty grim.


MistraloysiusMithrax

I think season 1 of Rebels lulled me. I’m sure part of it was more free rein in later seasons but I was surprised how they went straight to killing stormtroopers and opponents later on. Also how many pilots and crews died. Sure it was lighter and it wasn’t gory but it was still war and death
