Here's Your Cheat Sheet for the 'Star Wars' Saga
With the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, this is the perfect opportunity to recap the epic space opera audiences have enjoyed for over 40 years.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Jango Fett gets into his ship after his fight with Obi-Wan, he bangs his head on the partially open door. This was intentional, and is a reference to a famous goof from Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), where a stormtrooper accidentally bangs his head on a door.
- GoofsWhen Ki Adi Mundi first draws his lightsaber in the Arena, it is blue. After Yoda and the clones arrive, his lightsaber is green. Seconds later, when he gets on a ship, his lightsaber is blue again.
- Crazy creditsActors Jerome St. John Blake, Hassani Shapi, Gin Clarke, Khan Bonfils, Michaela Cottrell and Dipika O'Neill Joti are credited for playing the same Jedi Council members as in Episode I, although they did not film any new footage for Episode II. Instead the Jedi Council scene uses recycled footage from Episode I. Many of those parts were re-cast (or in some cases renamed) for Episode II, during the Battle of Geonosis, using Australian actors, but they are not credited.
- Alternate versionsThe 2011 Blu-ray release introduced a couple of minor editing changes that also carried over to the streaming and UHD versions:
- When Anakin and Obi-Wan pass through the power coupling during the speeder chase on Coruscant, Obi-Wan now completes his line "Anakin! How many times have I told you to stay away from power couplings?" before the shot of them actually passing through (which originally came before the second part of the line).
- Right after the lightsaber duel between Yoda and Count Dooku, three shots (a close-up of Anakin on the ground, a wider two-shot of Anakin and Obi-Wan, and a close-up of Yoda) have been moved to before the sequence of Count Dooku escaping the planet. After this sequence, it cuts to the wide shot of Yoda picking up his cane (which originally came directly after his close-up).
- ConnectionsEdited into Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones: Deleted Scenes (2002)
Featured review
The most underrated star wars movie ever
The truth is the first time I had watched the movie I wasn't impressed. After rewatches over the years I realised this movie gets so much hate that it didn't deserve. Especially if you compare it to the new movies (episodes 7, 8,9) it is far better in script, character development and battles. Anakin is awesome in this movie and makes you feel totally familiar with yourself the way he acts following your heart instead of cold rules.
