An anonymous reader writes "George Lucas CGI "Clone Wars" movie has premiered to reviews ranging from MSNBC's "Ugly animation and an uninspired storyline drag down the film" to AintItCool's "I hated the film. HATED IT. REALLY HATED IT.". Critics have noted the animation style, music and slapstick humor had more than a passing similarity to Pixar's Toy Story, and wondered if the introduction of new action figures (sorry, characters) like Baby Jabba Hutt and Jabba the Hutt's Gay Uncle may have taken the franchise a bridge too far. Lucas responding by enforcing an embargo, forcing the reviews to be taken down. While sites like AintItCool.com responded, but by then it was just a little too late. Still the CGI eye candy will make it popular with kids. If the "Clone Wars" movie can't save the galaxy, can it at least save the franchise?"
