I think I gave this episode the praise it deserved. BTW, did you guys notice how militaristic this episode was compared to other TCW episodes? I mean, it truly got the right combonation of Star Wars and milatary. Katie Lucas for the win!
The episode was perfection! MY NEW NUMBER ONE!
You must know that the Grievous vs Ventress was not only present in the duel. The entire episode they were fighting each other - it was her army vs his army! And his army for the first time in ages was really threating!
We got nods to the old seasons with the DEFOLIATOR and zombies - two elements that alone made the episode for me!
And the CIS/Grievous victory made the episode even better! While I still adore "Lair of Grievous", in that episode Grievous's victory was incomplete and bitter in the end as Fisto escaped and Dooku scolded him!
Here Grievous gave many kills and was victorious COMPLETELY! And I have watched the scene where he attacks the cave and kills Daka about a million times as it is so good and rewarding for a true Grievous fan like myself!
btw: What do you mean by "The only episode I've seen this season that's been better was Carnage of Krell."
If you mean that this episode, with its CIS VICTORY and GRIEVOUS being the REAL Grievous, is not as good as "Carnage of Krell" then I so disagree with that statement!
This episode had everything going for it and was genius! Everything was done right - from the visuals to the awesome story!
Carnage of Krell was amazing BUT...
it had the lame and really boring Rex and 501st! This is where the two episode differ and "Massacre" is the better one. In the my number one, all characters are cool and complex and intersting while in "Carnage of Krell" most of us were sick of Rex's spineless and stupid character! And seeing the clones suffer in that umbaran episode did not make me care for them! In "Massacre" I actually cared for Dooku and felt sorry for him (And I have been bashing Dooku for sucking since Dac this season) and this episode made me care for him - that is an accomplishment!
