Matt Lanter and James Arnold Taylor are just as important to Anakin and Obi Wan as Hayden Christensen and Ewan Mcregor are. They’ll always be in their shadow, but they deserve so much credit for adding so many more elements and layers to these amazing characters! Clone Wars really did so much for the Prequel Trilogy!

I'd really love to see them "finish" finish the clone wars at some point with all those missing arcs. I know it's extremely unlikely, especially with Dave putting most of his effort into the live action stuff nowadays, but I could always kill for some more clone wars :)
Honestly I'd also love if all the live action projects he is doing being high quality animation projects. I know it's unlikely but I much prefer animation as a star wars medium. It allows it to go deeper into lore like comics and EU had and good animation shows off some fantastic fights we'd never seen in live action. It's just unfortunate there's still a major prejudice with animation in the west.
I really loved the portrayal of Anakin in Clone Wars. Dave and Matt did such a fantastic job bringing to life the Anakin I had hoped to see in the movies. Those moments in Clone Wars where he started leaning to the dark side were masterfully done
@Luke Osburn "Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones." - Marcus Aurelius
To me Hayden always got cheated, yes hes who we see as Anakin but his Anakin always felt like it got the chance to be a truly fleshed out character, let alone the "hero of the clone wars and the chosen one" that we were told and no understand he is/was. Hayden never got to be the "war hero and general Anakin skywalker". I think the films focused too much on his relationship with Padme.
@Andrew Vasquez I agree totally. I'm not hating in Haden or the prequels but I just got to know anakin so much better in clone wars. I just watched season 5 episode 17 and it's a perfect example. It's got anakin being a hero. A good example of his relationship with ahsoka. It's got a moment when anakin gets a little more angry than a jedi should. Honestly if they remade this episode in live action I bet Haden and ro would do a fantastic job.
The genius of Dave Filoni speaks for itself when you realize how much Matt Lanter and Hayden Christensen are similar in personalities and mannerisms. Even the way their lips moves are insanely similar to each other. That's why Clone Wars worked. Dave embraced these characters the way George had always dreamed of.
James was an amazing obi wan. One of the reasons Kenobi became my favorite character. Matt Lanter also brought another side to Anakin that we definitely needed. He made Anakin so much better for so many people

Star Wars is life changing lol 😅 I have a daughter named Leia and a son named Luke and I dont get to see them often (nothing bad going on it just is this way right now; Life). Maybe when they're old enough to overthrow my empire 😂
I know it'll probably never happen but I've always wondered how Matt and James would voice act Anakin's fall to the Dark Side. Not the entire ROTS as a whole but just the last few moments on Mustafar. Like I said, it's not needed and it will probably never happen but after watching the last 4 episodes of Season 7 recently, I'm 100% sure it would Rival the actual film in popularity.
In case you weren't aware of this a Lego Star Wars game depicting all 9 movies came out (last year I think). With a lot of Clone Wars actors redoing lines from the movies. No doubt you can find compilations of it on UA-cam Otherwise there was also a Revenge of the Sith game released in 2005 with James Arnold Taylor and Mat Lucas as Anakin (from The Clone Wars 2d miniseries)
What i said. There's still unfinished/unreleased clone wars episodes yet to be released Disney didn't release them all. When they allowed season 6 and 7 to be done. There's 10 more story arcs that haven't been released
Heres what I found on wookieepedia: Lant Davan, designated "DC1," was a human male soldier and corrections officer who held the rank of lieutenant within the New Republic Correctional Corps.
We should get a Star Wars what if series I think that would be cool. Have them back again to voice act but for a what if series. In clone wars style animation
Anikin telling Asoka he knows what it’s like wanting to leave for me is just him saying it to try and get Asoka to stay as he looks to say what that didn’t work as she replied back with I know
@@jedislash He should be. I mean, I love Hayden I really do, but Matt's portrayal of Anakin in CW is just way more interesting. He definitely did justice to this character. He's so charismatic.. his voice and expression, and even his look are just on point, imo. I've always loved Hayden's Anakin but tbh mostly because of the 'Revenge of the Sith' part. Now, when I'm thinking of Anakin I see Matt. He did great in CW and I'm sure he would be amazing as live-action Anakin as well.
@@luminaratano3935"his look"is animated,what are talking about?And the rest of the world sees Hayden's Anakin as Anakin, not his american voice actor known only among TCW fans.
@@leylaaydn7192 I meant his look in real life of course 🙄. That, not only his voice but also his appearance and charisma perfectly fit to Anakin's character. Also, I don't know how abt 'the rest of the world' cause I don't have enough data, but I can speak for myself and I indeed saw Hayden as Anakin UNTIL I saw the Clone Wars.
Thats it , how can i become a master if i keep getting caught. At Least you are a Master of getting caught. Very Funny 🙄 That is one of my most favorite lines ever
I always felt Anakin in the movies sounds more childish, Hayden has a more acute voice than Matt, but hearing his VA say the "I HATE YOU!" in the same child tatrum manner is amazing, Anakin was so fucking young when he turned and he was in a great turmoil of emotions, about what he had done and how far he had come, there was no going back so he embraced even his child like frustrations with Obi-wan... Gee I really love how they compliment the character so well...
Sad init that because these guys are voice actors and aren't recognisable faces, that then means they don't get the ovation/credit they deserve. These two built so much in the characters that they play yet it sounds like people would rather see the live action versions... Idk is that just me? I feel like these guys aren't as appreciated as they should be. At least to this crowd. They seemed a bit dead throughout some parts.

For real 😂
James Arnold Taylor used to be the host for Star Wars Weekends so that's probably why.
Matt: *just a normal happy dude*
James: *the biggest nerd since Sam Witwer*
he made anakin fun and likeable and i will always appreciate that and as for obi he is simply just another awesome version

totally agree
There are a few great creators on You Tube doing new Clone Wars stories; check out 7 Cubes Films "Forgotten Ones" series.
40 some odd episodes. All of them have scripts and concept art, and half were in pre-vis phase. It's like, just finish them =P

then you missed the point of Hayden’s portrayal. Typical. For some reason some SW fans feel that hating on Hayden gives them Cred

I never realized how involved George Lucas was with Star Wars after it was sold to Disney. That’s awesome!
Yea
Not on any level other than opinionated conversations with Filoni
The sequels tend to disagree
Do keep in mind that Clone Wars did not start under Disney, so it's possible that anecdote was during the earlier seasons.
james arnold taylor literally was my childhood, from kids next door to clone wars and final fantasy X
seeing how happy these two are to be a part of the star wars universe makes me happy
James Arnold Taylor’s Dave Filoni Impression is spot-on 👌😂🤣
She said "Obi-Wan as Anakin Sky-guy"? Wow! And they managed to keep their faces straight, that's what I'd call great acting
James Arnold Taylor should just host every Celebration.
I feel like James Arnold Taylor should be the primary host of Celebration. Between him and Warwick Davis, no one interviews Star Wars actors better.
Its crazy hearing James talk in his regular voice, because all I hear is Tidus.
#CompleteTheCloneWars
Yes!
I know he’s forever Obi-Wan, but anytime JAT speaks, I simply can never NOT hear Tidus 😄
They do so well that I thought it was the real actors for a while...
Haha I love them
I can't be the only one who looked away from the screen and tried to picture Anakin and Obi as Matt and James talked. It's hilarious
That was fun. Late to the party as I'm just now watching Clone Wars. First knew Matt Lanter from Timeless, which I thought was a really good TV show.
I hope you enjoy it it’s an awesome show!
Love him in timeless especially the villain who turned out to be the hero
Enjoy, starting watching the show about 14 years ago when it started and I was like 7 or 8
It's weird hearing Obi-Wan and Tidus at the same time
I automatically liked the video because of the Clone Wars theme entrance. Like: YES!!!
Haha me to!!
As someone who grew up watching Clone Wars, this is so weird to hear the voice actors with their real faces 😅
I love these two just as much as Hayden and Ewan. Clone Wars is my favorite TV series. ❤
Star Wars is life changing lol 😅 I have a daughter named Leia and a son named Luke and I dont get to see them often (nothing bad going on it just is this way right now; Life). Maybe when they're old enough to overthrow my empire 😂

Jim has a little of Ewan mcgregors sense of humour, ironic
sad that Genndy Tartakovsky's Clone Wars mini series doesn't get enough love
I love both. 😃
James voiced Obi wan there too
For real!!!
Wouldn't mind seeing Genndy getting another shot honestly. Like a Visions episode would be insane.
Genndy and Blur Stodios
...ahhhh these two.. ♥
Ratchet and Anakin my childhood ❤
I like that we had Ashley had time with Hayden and Ewan. But why not these guys too? A Hello There competition?

"We have Hayden and Ewan at home, dear."
These guys are no less important than ewan and hayden
i'm so confused listening to these two.
Matt Lanter seems so bitter in this interview...
2 great tastes that taste great together...? Ewwww
Lanter > Christensen
Good opinion
Nah both are great 🗿
Hayden is forever anakin❤
Yea but for clone wars I think it’s cool that they have a different voice
Bad for you he is never gonna be the real Anakin.Hayden > Lanter
I never liked Matt Lanter as Anakin because his voice sounds nothing like Hayden Christensens and I think this was done to pander to prequel haters.
You're right, but i got used to it in the show. Matt is really good tho. Wished hayden got into voice acting, he would have alot of fun there.
