“Attack of the Clones also kicked much more ass.” And yet, as a follow-up to The Phantom Menace, it was also a much safer Star Wars movie because it looked more like the original trilogy than Episode I. In this way, Attack of the Clones was Lucas’ most technologically and stylistically risky movie. But at the time, Lucas was pushing the boundaries of how people thought about movies (basically, they weren’t films anymore). This sounds odd because digital projection and making movies on digital cameras are so commonplace now. During its theatrical run, George Lucas approved certain theaters to project the movie digitally.

From Death Star retcon to the first appearances of ships that look like Star Destroyers, Attack of the Clones changed the story of Star Wars and its larger canon forever. Although it was a spoiler at the time, this movie also established that Yoda could fight with a lightsaber for the first time. The recent series The Book of Boba Fettand The Mandalorian Season 2 featured the “return” of Morrison as Boba Fett, even though his face only appeared in one Star Wars film ever, again Attack of the Clones.Īdditionally, the entirety of two Star Wars series - both versions of The Clone Wars - and aspects of The Bad Batch also rely on events that occur in Episode II. It was Hayden Christensen’s first film as Anakin Skywalker, and now he’s reuniting with Ewan McGregor in the new Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi, along with Joel Edgerton and Bonnie Piesse, who play Owen and Beru, respectively.Įpisode II also marked the moment we learned that Boba Fett (Daniel Logan) was a clone of Jango Fett (Temuera Morrison) and that Fett’s DNA was the model for the Clone Army of the Republic. When you consider what’s been going on with Star Wars in the past few years, it’s shocking how much of it has directly grown out of Attack of the Clones.
