Star Wars Loose Canon

This is the first in a multi-episode series where we review the essential arcs of The Clone Wars TV show!

The Malevolence arc occurs in season 1 episodes 2-4. You may want to watch these episodes beforehand for a full understanding, but if not we provide a play-by-play of the biggest moments of each episode. Not only that, but we recap the most important takeaways and review the arc as a whole.

Some might not consider Malevolence essential to the overall story. Still, it is the first arc in the show, is fun, and presents recurring themes and character development.

LucasArts was one of the most successful video game developers of the 80s and 90s, delivering several classics such as Pipe Dream (1989), The Secret of Monkey Island (1990), Day of the Tentacle (1993), and X-wing versus TIE Fighter (1997).

But in the 2000s LucasArts struggled to maintain its prominence in the industry. They came up with one of their most ambitious ideas for a game to get themselves back on track. The story of Star Wars 1313’s development is the story of the fall of LucasArts.
