The Clone Wars-The Gathering

Cartoon Network has posted several pictures from the upcoming episode call "The Gathering." If you will remember back to August 27th, I reported that George Lucas had mentioned at Celebration VI about a possible third show other than The Clone Wars and Detours. It was called Young Jedi. A special 88 minute showing of Young Jedi was shown at CVI that included Ahsoka as she mentors 6 younglings who appeared to be young teenagers and their adventures into becoming full padawans. It was screened to parents and their children as a possible test audience for the show.

The Gathering is the first 22 minutes of that 88 minute or four part story arc from which these images are taken. It looks like we will see these episodes in Season 5, but is it a launching pad for a new Young Jedi show or just part of this season since the time slot is now on Saturday mornings where young children are watching. If there wasn't any relevance and it will not be spun off into its new show, then why show us sneak pictures now? Hmmm...

SPOILER ALERT: Highlight to read:

This first episode The Gathering takes place on the planet Ilum as the young Jedi come to get crystals for their lightsabers. Ilum was an ice planet in the Unknown Regions, one of the main sources of the valuable Adegan crystals used in the construction of Jedi lightsabers. The caverns containing the crystals were long ago turned into a Jedi temple. Unlike the crystals of other planets, the crystals of Ilum could produce green, blue, red, yellow, and violet colored lightsaber crystals. End of spoilers. I am looking forward to see where things go from here.
