Attack of the Clones/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Anakin's "Not again," when his lightsaber is destroyed. Which becomes something of a Brick Joke later when someone apparently expected this to happen, as they brought him a spare.
  • The entire sequence of Yoda having the class explain to Obi-Wan why information was missing in the Archives. It was almost like him saying, "These kids can figure it out. What's slowing you down?"
  • Obi-wan using the Force to open what was earlier established to be an automatic door.
  • When Anakin and Padmé are being chained up next to Obi-wan, Obi-Wan gives Anakin a death glare and Anakin responds thusly:

Anakin: "We came to rescue you."
Obi-wan: *Beat* "Good job."

  • In the documentary "From Puppets To Pixels" included on the special features, George describes Yoda as the "illegitimate child of Kermit The Frog and Miss Piggy."
  • YMMV, but there are a number of "so bad it's funny" moments in the movie. This Troper enjoyed it more than the other prequels, because bad lines like Anakin's "I wish I could just wish my feelings away", bad jokes like the hurricane of C-3PO puns near the end, and badly contrived scenes (like Jango Fett shooting the assassin outside the bar just as she's about to disclose his identity) made her laugh so much she couldn't hold a grudge against it.
