darkknight109 07/26/18 5:48:11 PM #39:	The Jedi spend some time talking about how horribly out of control Anakin's emotions are, then immediately send him to spend some quality alone-time with the senator whose leg he's busy humping. They have apparently decided that the safest place for her, instead of a Republic bunker or distant Jedi monastery somewhere, is her old vacation home on her native planet. Fortunately the assassins, having been foiled twice, either decide to just give up or are too stupid to think to look for her there. Meanwhile, Detective Obi-Wan is on the Case of the Missing Planet! After a bit of sleuthing he discovers Jango on Kamino; there he uncovers a secret army, bought by someone impersonating a dead Jedi Master, paid for by unknown means, and built on a planet conspicuously deleted from the Jedi Archives. Now this, on its own, should be ringing every alarm bell in Obi-Wan's head, because it all points to someone with enormous influence and resources working at cross-purposes to the Republic and the Jedi. Yet instead of questioning the provenance of this alarmingly convenient army, the Jedi eventually just claim ownership of it and shrug their collective shoulders. This hints to incompetence on a truly staggering scale; had anyone bothered to do any digging into who ordered these clones and for what purpose, they might have looked into how they were being made and trained and discovered that each of them has a Jedi kill-code hardwired into their brains. Whoops! So Jango runs, Obi-Wan tracks him and he flees to... Geonosis. Why? What on Earth was he doing there? He seems to do this for no reason other than the fact that that's where the plot needed to go next, so that's where he led Obi-Wan to. This is made all the more jarring when Obi-Wan lands on the surface and somehow runs into Count Dooku and company with Jango Fett notably not among them. So yeah... this movie is an absolute mess. Even noting TLJ's occasional dalliances with logical gaps, it is nowhere near as bad as this atrocity. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster. Kill 100 men: You are a hero. Kill 10,000 men, you are a conqueror! <cite>darkknight109 posted [p:905770364] in I watched ...
