So the Trade Federation has been destroyed and Qui-Gon Jinn died ten years ago, Padmé has become a senator, and the Separatists are emerging, ruled by Count Dooku. And at this time, Padmé arrives on Coruscant to attend an important meeting about the formation of a Republic army.
So the Trade Federation has been destroyed and Qui-Gon Jinn died ten years ago, Padmé has become a senator, and the separatists, ruled by Count Dooku, are emerging. And at this time, Padmé arrives on Coruscant to attend an important meeting about the formation of the Republic Army. But she is assassinated, which actually sparks the arrival of an old friend, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the handsome Anakin, who lusts after Padmé in his dreams. And when assassination #2 takes place, the Jedi Council decides that Padmé and Anakin should go to Naboo and Obi-Wan should go on the trail of the assassin (Jango Fett).
Obi-Wan hits the trail and finds a planet full of water and constant rain, no mention of it on the maps, and discovers that there is a cloning device there, which the Jedi Council themselves have had made, according to local information. They're clones of Jango Fett. Meanwhile, Padme is on Naboo with Anakin, and they are steadily forming a growing rapprochement. Well, just a love that's forbidden to the political and Jedi. Obi-wan follows Jango Fett to Geonisis, where he discovers that the Separatists are making a Republic army.
Maybe I'm confusing you, the author, a bit and getting you tangled up in the Star Wars tangle, but if you're a normal person who doesn't care about Star Wars, then unfortunately don't read any further, it's about how Star Wars is very much intertwined with other unique works, both SW IV – VI and SW I. And if you can understand that without knowing the interconnectedness of the parts, you're probably pretty „machr“ good. I'm actually quite a fan of the saga.
George Lukas shot this film with a digital camera so you can see, rather not see, the digital nature of the footage, and certainly the film is 99% made entirely on computers and the actors are actually only acting in front of a blue screen. And so their acting is distorted by the fact that they actually have to imagine beautiful palaces around them, interesting spaceships.
And the main thing, Episode II, is definitely better than Episode I, in that Anakin is played by a charismatic young man and no longer a child, the main negative characters are played by experienced actors. Christopher Lee, for example, who for his age has made one film after another (including Lord of the Rings)
HNIDOPICH'S SORROW
WARNING – ACUTE DANGER BREATHING
-
- If I'm a Jedi and I have an arrogant Padawan under me, I wouldn't trust him to anyone but myself and let him fall in love with me.
- As you can see, Jedi are pretty „alien“ because they will pull off anything another human wouldn't survive, falling many hundreds of feet, cutting off an arm.
- Anakin Anakin, you're so stubborn, you don't give a damn, you don't listen to anybody, and it's a mistake to save your mother, she's going to die in your hand anyway, and then you get on the dark side and you become a pretty dark Darth Vader
- Yoda's great, he's pretty agile for his age.
