An unconditional fan of the "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" animated TV series,
set between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. The typical cloomer is an adolescent or adult
male who has watched the various Star Wars TV shows religiously, however he has never read any
book or comic and only possesses an extremely
shallow knowledge of the Star Wars Expanded Universe from Youtube videos.
The cloomer does not take criticism against his favorite show well. Although it was evidently aimed a young audience, he will insist at every turn that it is not a "
kid'
s show" due to the "mature" themes approached by the series. While reasonable discussion can be had with a cloomer on this subject, one should be extremely cautious not to openly criticize the show's producer Dave Filoni, who has become a figure of worship for them, as exemplified by the
popular posts on r/prequelmemes.
Dave Filoni is believed by the cloomers to be one of the precious few at Lucasfilm who "respects" Star Wars Legends material after the debacle of the Sequel Trilogy. This particular allegation is far from the
truth, as The Clone Wars has been highly controversial for retconning and mutilating
major aspects of established Legends
lore, notably the Clone Wars Multimedia project. Any discussion of this topic with a cloomer is however futile given their willful
ignorance of the books and comics, and nothing will dissuade them that Filoni is "the Chosen One", who will bring Star Wars into a new golden age.
