Well, The New Essential Chronology seems to have solved the major continuity issue with Season 3 by saying that Anakin and Obi-Wan go from Tythe to Nelvaan at which point the invasion of Coruscant ensues (although the NEC uses the events of the invasion told in LOE rather than in the micro-series).

However, a number of things are left unexplained. Mace and Palpatine tell Anakin and Obi-Wan in the micro-series that they must go to Nelvaan immediately. If this were so, why did they go from Koorivar to Koru Neimodia to Deko Neimodia to Cato Neimodia to Belderone to Charros IV to to Escarte to Naos III back to Belderone then to Tythe then to Nelvaan.

Deleted scenes are canon unless contradicted by another source. That particular scene (Shaak Ti's death) isn't canon, because Shaak Ti is seen later in the film on the Jedi Council. Officially she was killed in Anakin's raid on the Jedi Temple.

It's all explained here.

I was a bit confused about Shaak Ti. Since she wasn't taken aboard Grievous' ship at the end of Chapter 25, why was she aboard his ship in the ROTS deleted scenes? I considered Clone Wars as the most canon of the EU, so something must be wrong here.

Either:
1. Clone Wars isn't as canon.
2. Deleted Scenes aren't as canon.
3. It's just a goof. No one noticed.

Any thoughts?

He wasn't at all, and even if he was, I seriously doubt he would be voiced by Harrison Ford. That website's made a mistake. Besides, Han would only be a kid at the time of the Clone Wars, way too young to be voiced by Harrison.

*The Stover novel excerpt is as far as I know only officially available on hyperspace at the moment, so posting a link in here would not be allowed. *

I though we just aren't supposed to quote Hyperspace material. I don't see what it would matter anyway with a link - it'll just send them to the Hyperspace join/login page, so it's effectively a promotion...

So what was the deal back in Chapter 22 (i think) with Anakin and Qui-Gon facing the tree on Dagobah? My opinion is that it was kind of a foreshadowing thing with Anakin having to face himself in Chapter 25 when he killed all of the Techno Union dudes, and it kind of bridged the whole thing with Qui-Gon being there as Anakin's first teacher, and then the tree from ESB to foreshadow Yoda's part in everything. Am I right on this?

That's pretty much what I got out of it.

Three words: it's a cartoon.

Of course Flight, but don't you still like things to flow? Personally I don't like things to be too far from what the movies have set up. The comics and the books stay pretty true to that, but the cartoon tends to go off the deep end.

As for continuity, once Episode III has been out a while I want a good Clone Wars timeline that has all of this stuff in it. I want to know EXACTLY what happened in Coruscant, and which version is true.

that's one thing that is interesting about the Clone Wars cartoons the Jedi have some crazy powers that are never seen in the films at that magnitude....Yoda doing all that stuff is kind of like Mace beating all of the SBD's with his bare hands....not very believable, even for Jedi

Three words: it's a cartoon. :)

what i wanna know is how yoda can crash_ together 1000 ton dropships yet he struggles to move falling 1 ton metal pillars.

The falling pillar in Attack of the Clones was a surprise. Yoda was concentrating on his fight with Dooku, but Dooku pulled a fast one and knocked the pillar down. Yoda had to quickly divert his attention to the falling pillar and did not have time to mentally prepare for the task of lifting the pillar. It's all about cencentration. In that Clone Wars cartoon episode, his main focus was bringing down those dropships. He had an ideal environment in which to concentrate on destroying the droid ships.

Actaully from what I hear, the ROTS novel is tieing heavly into LOE.

At least this is what those who have the audio-drama tell me.

The cartoon will have an ill fated death, it's contradiction after contradiction caused that.

I've noticed a lot lately that LFL is becoming more and more responsible for the continuity mistakes that come up. The people who want continuity, are the one's who mess it up.

In KOTOR 2, they approve a Basilisk that looks like a Viraga Star Viper
They let Zahn have his way with a certain name of a son in Surivivors Quest
And they let a entire section of a series contradict an entire book.

What's next, Jaxxon being Darth Vader?

maybe the Jedi really are that powerful, but they have to tone it down for the films because those powers couldn't be depicted without CG

I'm not sure if it's just that.
I think it's partly because there is little time that can be wasted in the cartoons and thus to save complicating the issue they enable the jedi more power than usual.
It basically speeds things up. In the films there is more time to get from 'A to B' and so the characters don't just spin around taking down anything that stands in the way.
I like the cartoons and the films, but in there own way - But I would take the force power more correctly from the film versions e.g. Yoda holding that Pipe over Anakiin and OB1 with difficulty.

In the cartoon Yoda would have just flung that Pipe thing out the way quicker, but then Dooku would have simply run into the space-craft quicker, so ultimately the result would have been the same, but the cartoon would have concluded in a faster time (which is its goal).

I know. that's the excerpt that I posted.

Well, only people who have Hyperspace could read it so it wouldn't really matter.
