“Star Wars” fans rejoice, the adventure continues on the big screen Aug. 15, 2008. Except that it’s an animated feature. “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” serves as a sort of prequel to Lucas’ upcoming TV series about the continuation of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi’s adventures and battles against Count Doku, General Greivous and other villains.

Entertainment News International today posted a horde of new stills from the film, and they sure look tasty. If you like the sample above, head over there and check them out. “Clone Wars” is directed by Dave Filoni and executive produced by George Lucas. I’m excited to see how this thing will perform in theaters.
