You can just take it from a design standpoint and say, ‘A B-17 bomber is a really awesome looking airplane, how can we apply that?’ A Heinkel bomber has got all the essences of the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon. I asked supervising director Dave Filoni if historical events like World War II influence the story, look, or sound of the show to which he responded, “On all levels - it always does. The March of Time was one of the most popular radio programs in America throughout the great depression and World War II. He says, “It’s a voice that I’ve done and do quite often for commercials and stuff - we call it the “March of Time” voice,” referring to The March of Time, a popular and groundbreaking radio news program from the 1930s and early 1940s.
The Western serials and the radio dramas and TV shows that impressed him as a young man is what he wanted to bring to the movies.” Kane’s own inspiration for the voice was a classic one. the genesis of Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark and was what he grew up on. Tom Kane, voice of the narrator and Yoda, among others, provided some insight into the narrator’s voice in 2008, saying, “This came straight from George. “The narrator is very much a newsreel feel,” explained supervising director Dave Filoni. Rather than open with a rollup or crawl like the films, the television episodes were introduced by a narrator. The inspiration starts at the beginning of each and every episode of The Clone Wars. With the complete series of The Clone Wars now on Netflix, now is a great time to look back at just how World War II inspired the galaxy’s greatest conflict. The six seasons of Star Wars: The Clone Wars gave us a deeper look into the far-reaching implications of a galactic conflict that had only been glimpsed in the Star Wars films. In 2008, George Lucas said that the upcoming Star Wars: The Clone Wars was “like Band of Brothers only with Jedi,” but little did we know then just how much the award-winning show would draw from history as inspiration. Just as World War II impacted every corner of our world, the events of Star Wars: The Clone Wars seemed to touch nearly every corner of the Star Wars galaxy.
