Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002)

One last round of Star Wars. Just one more podcast/Youtube video discussion about all of the Star Wars movies in REAL chronological order is what the world needs right now. We’re calling this months theme, “FORCED”. The Star Wars nostalgia well has run pretty dry for us the last several years so we decided one more heartfelt examination and, seriously, we will probably never watch these movies ever again. Maybe if a child relative comes along and asks us to watch Star Wars with them then we may oblige but this hypothetical child relative could grow up to kill all of their friends and help turn the galaxy into a totalitarian nightmare so maybe we would have to stand our ground. That said, we’re 2/3rds through George Lucas’s prequel trilogy about the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker with the 2002 blockbuster “STAR WARS: EPISODE II - ATTACK OF THE CLONES”. All of those vague references of the past in the original trilogy are getting brought to life and now we know that the clones from “The Clone Wars” are actually an army of castrato Boba Fetts. The Trade Federation are still at it and they got the Hammer Horror Dracula calling the shots. Let’s not forget that this is, supposedly, a love story. It’s not as much of a charisma vacuum as the last film but the passion still seems dissonant. Maybe it’s all the Skywalker whining. They definitely upped the lightsaber game in this one for all the nerds who said their lives were over because of Jar Jar Binks. What’s funny is that those people will always buy the tickets. Every time. Let’s get into the clone zone.
