Attack of the Clones

Could the Galactic Republic have just let the Separatists go? Is Padawan Anakin a romantic figure or a walking red flag? Does Jango Fett get a bad rap, and can we find things in this movie to love, and how freaking cool were seismic charges?Alex, Erin, & Matthew dive into Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones. We explore the above questions and more, including:Was Count Dooku right in what he said to Obi-Wan Kenobi? Did he intend to join with Kenobi against Darth Sidious?
What draws Padmé to Anakin, and why can she look past his murder of the Tusken Raiders?
What does this movie teach us about the hubris of the Jedi, and the number of Jedi Masters who ignored Anakin's warning signs?
Why does Matthew call lightsaber-wielding Yoda a bouncing green ball of ableism?
