Chat corner: 9: Attack of something

[annathecrow]

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

 

Optional chat prompt

This week’s topic is “Star Wars: Attack of the Clones”. Second movie in the prequel trilogy, little Ani is all grown up and here to give us all a load of second-hand embarrassment! Also, is it just me or does Padmé’s penthouse look like a cross between Art Deco and 90s hotel lobby?

What do you mean by “this is the weakest one due to heterosexuality subplot”?

[extrapenguin]

The Padmé/Anakin (i.e. the heterosexuality) bits were cringey and uncomfortable to watch. The other stuff, like the investigation and Geonosis and the final lightsaber battles, was all nice, but I think this movie had the highest ratio of nope to runtime of the prequels.

Yeah your mileage may vary on Anidala.

Despite the ‘forced romance’, AotC was the one movie that got me into Star Wars. I thought the universe building, the Jedi Order, and the origin of the clones were good.
