[QUOTE="Amphytrion, post: 9837958, member: 7046181"] I was a child when these were released, and I have fond memories of them. I don’t think the plot is difficult to understand at all, but assuming these are actual questions: Padme might be an exceedingly common name in Naboo. I’m sure any King George in British history also had an aide also named George, for example. Padme’s name is the least puzzling bit about the Naboo government, which is fairly strange. I don’t know, maybe a power generating facility. Star Wars is full of these; see Palpatine’s throne room in RotJ. This isn’t a hard sci-fi franchise and sometimes setpieces just look neat. You can come up with their purpose yourself. He didn’t own both armies at the start of the conflict, each respective side did. He used the conflict as a pretext to centralize power. This is made fairly clear onscreen more than once. Jango was under orders from Dooku. He didn’t need to know the entire plan, just follow Dooku’s directives. I’ll never be able to unsee this. Did Windows XP come afterwards? 9-year old me thought they were awesome, and that’s who the movie was for. I mean what do you want the Jedi to do? “Sorry our religious order doesn’t allow aliens with long necks”? [/QUOTE]
