Kids!
briefing.
The next 10 chapters of the animated micro series, Star Wars: Clone
Wars will premiere on Cartoon Network beginning with Chapter
11, Friday, March 26, 9:30p. The following nine chapters will make
their debut March 29-April 8, 8p. In these next ten chapters
(11-20) of the animated story, which picked up where Star Wars: Episode
II Attack of the Clones left off, viewers will be introduced to a new
villain General Grievous, a part alien/part robot character who figures
as a major player in George Lucas’ upcoming feature Star Wars: Episode
III. The network will feature the micro series in a Star Wars:
Clone Wars marathon on April 9; chapters 11-20, 8-10p and April 10,
chapters 1-5 at 9p-12a.
Kids’ WB presents a special episode of Static Shock this
Saturday, February 28, 8:30a. Titled Hoop Squad, the special
follows the series superhero, Static when he goes to LA for the All-Star
Game and meets up with basketball stars Karl Malone, Yao Ming, Tracy
McGrady and Steve Nash in their animated forms. Static is shocked
to find out that these very basketball heroes are also superheroes whose
incredible athletic abilities are augmented by donning ‘high-tech
bio-enhancer suits,’ to become The Hoop Squad, each possessing their own
superhero persona: Malone, the leader of the team, is the Pulverizer with
the power to pulverize anything with his hands; Yao Ming becomes Center
Force who is able to leap over mountains and run at superhuman speeds; as
Spin Drive McGrady has the ability to spin like a cyclone; and finally
Nash becomes Point Man who with his remarkable aim is able to launch mini
exploding rockets from his armored gloves. Static and The Hoop
Squad join forces to fight against the evil Dr. Odium.
Charged with complaints the Walt Disney Company has lost its
'creative edge', Studios Chairman Dick Cook responds: "I think creativity at our studio
has never been more on the upswing. I think we have more great projects,
both in live action and animation, than we have had in years."
The studio division took in $3 billion in worldwide box office sales in
2003, thanks perhaps in large part to a little fish named Nemo
(personally responsible for $340 million last year), not to mention
Pirates fo the Caribbean ($304 million) as well as others including Holes
($67m) and Freaky Friday ($110m). And still to come, two more films
from Pixar (likely its last two at the Disney Studios): The Incredibles
and Cars, both due out in 2005.
