   Nah, I wouldn't even put The Clone Wars under the movie section,   
   really. If for no other reason than GL not being the writer or   
   director. And I'm fairly sure that he's listed as Producer only   
   because he shelled up the cash and being the head of LucasFilm, not   
   that he was around the set giving any input.   
      
   And I *WISH* Force Unleashed (a game, if you didn't know) could be   
   considered canon, best story in a SW game for AGES. Actually, best   
   story in anything SW-related for a very long time. And not only that,   
   it showcases Force powers that are totally out there, awesome!   
   LucasFilm should make a movie out of this game.
