    It has been drawn to my attention over the past few days that Attack of the Clones is total crap, and it is this way because George has failed to see that his script was riddled with PLOT HOLES. For your conveinience, I've compiled a COMPLETE list of all AOTC PLOT HOLES in the order in which they appear.




    Warning, the following glarring PLOT HOLES may offend those which are not willing to admit that AOTC is not without flaw:






    - Obi-Wan Kenobi suddenly has a beard!!!?!?!?!?1?!?!

    - During the speeder case, a dug says, ?Jedi Poodo,? but for all that he knows, Obi-Wan Kenobi could have been a well dressed homeless man.

    - Obi-Wan tells that dude not to do death sticks, but then he drinks.

    - Anakin tells Padme that sometime people need to ?do what is requested of us,? but then he doesn?t listen to Obi-Wan!

    - When the ships go to hyperspace there are no starfields.

    - If the serving droid on the refugee ship says that there are no droids allowed, than why is he there?

    - Dex says that the Kaminoins are cloners, but we later find out that they are actually white aliens with long necks.

    - Padme says that she was an elected queen, but queens aren?t elected. Duh!

    - Anakin says that he?d be much too frightened to tease a senator but that is exactly what he just did!

    - The one unaltered clone just HAPPENS to be Boba Fett? Oh please, stop it with the coincidences already George?

    - A Jedi is supposed to never use the force for attack, yet Anakin uses his power to slice a pear in two!

    - Anakin looked like an idiot when he was having his bad dream. That?s not a PLOT HOLE, I?m just saying.

    - If it never rains on Tatooine, then why are there clouds?

    - Uncle Own introduces Aunt Beru as his girlfriend yet A New Hope established that they were married.

    - How come Anakin can get a replacement arm but Cleig can?t get a replacement leg?

    - When Anakin slaughters the Tuskins, Qui-Gon can be heard yelling, ?Anakin! Anakin! NOOOOO!? although The Phantom Menace clearly established that he is dead.

    - Palpatine says that he loves democracy but he becomes the EMPORER in the old movies!

    - Tatooine is supposed to be a hot climate, but Padme is obviously cold.

    - C-3PO claims that he has done nothing to deserve being pushed off of the ledge by Artoo, but he just called him an idiot in the scene before!

    - The film gives us no indication that the reek smells.

    - Dooku tells Nute Gunray that Padme will die but she lives!

    - Jango Fett looses his jetpack in the battle with Obi-Wan but then gets it back for the arena battle.

    - In the arena battle Padme tells Anakin that she is performing ?aggressive negations,? but aggressive negotiations are negotiations with a lightsaber and she has a gun!

    - The Clones fought with the good guys yet we all know that the stormtroopers were bad guys in the good trilogy. (Except Return of the Jedi)

    - Yoda can flip around in a lightsaber fight, but he needs a cane to walk.

    - Padme and Anakin get married but they have no rings!

    - At the end of the movie Yoda tells Obi-Wan that the clone wars have begun, but that can?t be true because Obi-Wan says in A New Hope that he was a general in the clone wars!

    If the original movies have been out for 20 years, how come the Jedi still don't realize that Anakin is going to turn evil?

    Great list ;)
    The one about the well-dressed homeless man really got me thinking.

    Come to Coruscant! See random citizens flying through the air, holding onto assassin droids!

    Why don't we see bums of such caliber in our big cities? :(

    Mace Windy,

    Great thread but you forgot a MAJOR plot hole... Before they enter the arena, Padme tells Anakin that beofre they die she wanted him to know that she loved him. They didn't die! Oh dear, my childhood just found blood in its stool.

    ---------------------------------

    Wascally Droid,

    When I lived in NYC, I didn't see any bums hanging from assassin droids, but I did see a bum with pants hanging from ass, scratching 'rhoids!

    You also forgot R2D2 flying.

    AOTC is MONUMENTALLY FLAWED in so many ways, but in the couple of years I've watched it on DVD it's grown on me. It's still my least favorite of the SAGA, but it's the crappiest movie I ever loved.

    Thats a great list.

    If there was one thing I might consider a plot hole, or at least something I don't understand correctly, that someone might want to answer for me: Why does Jar Jar takes Padme's place in the senate, but we see she leaves a decoy behind (Dormé). If people believe Dormé is Padme, wouldn't they expect her in the Senate?

    Dooku said he would petition for Obi's release immediately, but he kept standing there to tempt Obi in joining him. How big a plothole is this :eek:?

    This thread is hilarious :D. I'll try to come up with more examples.

    If people believe Dormé is Padme, wouldn't they expect her in the Senate?

    I wouldn't think they would if Jar Jar frequently sits in for Naboo to gather information regarding the various Senate deliberations and reports them to her. Dormé's standing in for Padmé might be more along the lines of her occupying Padmé's appartment similar to how that fifth hobbit does with Frodo's house in Buckland in the book Fellowship of the Ring.

    - Obi-Wan Kenobi suddenly has a beard!!!?!?!?!?1?!?!

    You mean after ten years if he has not done anything with it he should not have a beard? :eek: No really not much of a plot hole. ;)

    - When the ships go to hyperspace there are no starfields.

    We never really see them go into hyperspace any ways.

    - If the serving droid on the refugee ship says that there are no droids allowed, than why is he there?

    More of a joke. :p

    - A Jedi is supposed to never use the force for attack, yet Anakin uses his power to slice a pear in two!

    I thought he used a knife? Wait he did use a knife.

    - Uncle Own introduces Aunt Beru as his girlfriend yet A New Hope established that they were married.

    Years later if they are married and he is still saying she is he's girlfriend I'm shocked she would not leave him. :p

    - Padme and Anakin get married but they have no rings!

    Who needs rings. :p

    No there aren't, Frank I'm glad someone realized how outrageous the PT is. Lucas is an absolute hack, and he's ruining Boba Fett!

    Look at this HUGE plot hole:

    At the end of the asteroid chase, when the torpedo blows up, Jango specifically says, "Well, we won't be seeing him again."

    Then we see Obi-wan not only again, but in several minutes of every subsequent movie in the Saga!!!!

    Oh that's right. I forgot about the obligatory commercialism.

    I guess Jar Jar's action figure didn't do as well as they would have hoped. How bout a talking Jar Jar?!

    He's an idiot.

    - Anakin tells Padme that sometime people need to ?do what is requested of us,? but then he doesn?t listen to Obi-Wan!

    He's an idiot.

    He's an idiot.


    - Dex says that the Kaminoins are cloners, but we later find out that they are actually white aliens with long necks.

    They're white cloners with long necks.


    - Anakin says that he?d be much too frightened to tease a senator but that is exactly what he just did!

    He hoped she would *punish* him.


    - A Jedi is supposed to never use the force for attack, yet Anakin uses his power to slice a pear in two!

    He has the dark side in him.


    - Anakin looked like an idiot when he was having his bad dream. That?s not a PLOT HOLE, I?m just saying.

    Agreed. that could have been executed much better.


    - If it never rains on Tatooine, then why are there clouds?

    Because clouds float in from the Mediterranean over Tunisia.


    - How come Anakin can get a replacement arm but Cleig can?t get a replacement leg?

    He's a moisture farmer. He's too poor. Besides he looks awsome in that floating chair of his.


    - C-3PO claims that he has done nothing to deserve being pushed off of the ledge by Artoo, but he just called him an idiot in the scene before!

    He's an idiot.


    - The film gives us no indication that the reek smells.

    Yeah it does. Look how cautiously Anikan approached it.


    - Jango Fett looses his jetpack in the battle with Obi-Wan but then gets it back for the arena battle.

    Thank god for replicators...?
