The Grand Army of the Republic
They come in right at the end and save the day and then prove incredibly important and fascinating characters for the rest of the saga (yeah mainly in the Clone Wars animated series).

Jobs for the disabled
This is Tey How she has now eyes and no mouth I guess. She also has a job with the Trade Federation. The Star Wars universe is all about equal opportunities. Anakin Skywalker didn’t even think twice about blowing her up with the rest of the Trade Federation. Now that’s equality.

The Battle of Geonosis
Most of the film bores me to tears but the conclusion to Attack of the Clones is pretty fun. Finally we get to see the Jedi in action and we get a very cool battle between droids, creepy bug dugs, Jedi, big monster things and the Clones. It’s a pretty awesome scene.

Anakin is selfless
One day he’ll grow up to kill the Younglings, help blow up Alderaan, torture his daughter, cut off his son’s hand and kill his old master but in the Phantom Menace he was a truly selfless little dude. I guess that’s what comes from immaculate conception.

The Empire Really Takes It’s Time With Things
Back in the old days the Empire really took time with it’s projects. They didn’t just whip up a new Death Star between films like they would in later years. Back in Revenge of the Sith they had a good work ethic and that must be saluted.

Hilarious droid antics!
Can you believe we’ve finally hit 50 positive things? No me neither. I’ve been scraping the bottom of the barrel since about #6 and tonight is no better. We’re back on Clones which is easily the film I like the least but what about that hilarious bit where C3PO gets his head grafted onto a baddie droid’s body? Oh the hilarity and then R2 saves him which is such a sweet moment I guess.

The opening crawl!
War! Heroes on both sides (not sure how that’s possible with such a two dimensional battle between good and evil)! There’s no mention of trade roots or negotiations. It’s all about action! After two incredibly dull opening crawls Revenge of the Sith grabs you buy the balls and throws you in at the deep end!
