If The Phantom Menace was the setup, then Attack of the Clones is the plot-progressing payoff, and devoted Star Wars fans are sure to be enthralled. Ten years after Episode I, Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman), now a senator, resists the creation of a Republic Army to combat an evil separatist movement. The brooding Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is resentful of his stern Jedi mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), tormented by personal loss, and showing his emerging "dark side" while protecting his new love, Amidala, from would-be assassins. Youthful romance and solemn portent foreshadow the events of the original Star Wars as Count Dooku (a.k.a. Darth Tyranus, played by Christopher Lee) forges an alliance with the Dark Lord of the Sith, while lavish set pieces showcase George Lucas's supreme command of all-digital filmmaking. All of this makes Episode II a technological milestone, savaged by some critics as a bloated, storyless spectacle, but still qualifying as a fan-approved precursor to the pivotal events of Episode III. --Jeff Shannon

- C-3PO: Did You hear that? They shut down the main reactor. We'll be destroyed for sure. This is madness. »
- C-3PO: Don't call me a mindless philosopher, you overweight glob of grease. »
- C-3PO: Help. I think I'm melting. This is all your fault. »
- C-3PO: I've just about had enough of you. Go that way. You'll be malfunctioning within a day, you near-sighted scrap pile. And don't let me catch you following me begging for help because you won't get it. »
- C-3PO: Is there anything I can do?
Luke: Not unless you can alter time, speed up the harvest or teleport me off this rock. »
- C-3PO: Listen to them, they're dying, R2. Curse my metal body. I wasn't fast enough. It's all my fault. My poor master. »
- C-3PO: Master Luke, sir. Pardon me for asking, but what should R2 and I do if we're discovered here?
Luke: Lock the door.
Han Solo: And hope they don't have blasters.
C-3PO: That isn't very reassuring. »
- C-3PO: That malfunctioning little twirp, this is all his fault. »
- C-3PO: We seem to be made to suffer. It's our lot in life. »
- C-3PO: We're doomed. »
- C-3PO: You must repair him! Sir, if any of my circuits or gears will help, I'll gladly donate them.
Luke: He'll be all right. »
- Chewbacca: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrgh
C-3PO: He made a fair move. Screaming about it can't help you.
Han Solo: Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee.
C-3PO: But sir, nobody worries about upsetting a droid.
Han Solo: That's 'cause droids don't pull people's arms out of their sockets when they lose. Wookiees are known to do that.
Chewbacca: Grrf.
C-3PO: I see your point, sir. I suggest a new strategy, R2: let the Wookiee win. »
- Commander #1: We've analyzed their attack, sir, and there is a danger. Should I have your ship standing by?
Governor Tarkin: Evacuate? In our moment of triumph? I think you overestimate their chances. »
- Darth Vader: And now, your highness, we will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base... »
- Darth Vader: Commander, tear this ship apart until you've found those plans! And bring me the passengers, I want them alive! »
- Darth Vader: Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force. »
- Darth Vader: I find your lack of faith disturbing. »
- Darth Vader: I have you now! »
- Darth Vader: I sense something. A presence I've not felt since... »
- Darth Vader: I will take them myself. Cover me. »
- Darth Vader: I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I met you I was but the learner. Now, *I* am the master.
Obi-Wan: Only a master of evil, Darth. »
- Darth Vader: The Force is strong with this one. »
- Darth Vader: Today will be a day long remembered. It has seen the death of Kenobi, and will soon see the end of the Rebellion. »
- Darth Vader: You should not have come back! »
- Darth Vader: Your powers are weak, old man.
Obi-Wan: You can't win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine. »
- General Tagge: What of the Rebellion? If the Rebels have obtained a complete technical reading of this station, it is possible, however unlikely, they might find a weakness and exploit it.
Darth Vader: The plans you refer to will soon be back in our hands.
Admiral Motti: Any attack made by the Rebels against this station would be a useless gesture, no matter what technical data they have obtained. This station is now the ultimate power in the universe. I suggest we use it. »
- Governor Tarkin: Are they away?
Darth Vader: They just made the jump into hyperspace.
Governor Tarkin: And you're sure the homing beacon is secure onboard their ship? I'm taking an awful risk, Vader. This had better work. »
- Governor Tarkin: If you're right, he must not be allowed to escape.
Darth Vader: Escape is not his plan. I must face him. Alone. »
- Governor Tarkin: Obi-Wan Kenobi?
Darth Vader: He is here.
Governor Tarkin: What makes you think so?
Darth Vader: A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master.
Governor Tarkin: Surely he must be dead by now.
Darth Vader: Don't underestimate the Force. »
- Governor Tarkin: Perhaps she would respond to an alternative form of persuasion.
Darth Vader: What do you mean?
Governor Tarkin: I think it is time we'd demonstrated the full power of this station. Set course for Alderaan. »
- Governor Tarkin: The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us. I have just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away.
General Tagge: But that's impossible. How will the Emperor maintain control without the bureaucracy?
Governor Tarkin: The regional governors now have direct control over their territories. Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station. »
- Governor Tarkin: The Jedi are extinct. Their fire has gone out of the universe. »
- Governor Tarkin: Yes?
Darth Vader: They must be trying to return the stolen plans to the princess. She may yet be of some use to us. »
- Han Solo: Damn fool, I knew you were going to say that.
Obi-Wan: Who's the more foolish: The fool, or the fool who follows him? »
- Han Solo: Get in there you big furry oaf. I don't care what you smell. »
- Han Solo: Good against remotes is one thing. Good against the living, that's something else. »
- Han Solo: Han Solo. I'm captain of the Millennium Falcon. Chewie here tells me you're lookin' for passage to the Alderaan system?
Obi-Wan: Yes indeed, if it's a fast ship.
Han Solo: Fast ship? You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon? »
- Han Solo: Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid. »
- Han Solo: Look, Your Worshipfulness, let's get one thing straight. I take orders from just one person: me.
Princess Leia: It's a wonder you're still alive.
Princess Leia: Will someone get this big walking carpet out of my way?
Han Solo: No reward is worth this. »
- Han Solo: Not a bad bit of rescuing, huh? You know, sometimes I amaze even myself.
Princess Leia: That doesn't sound too hard. »
- Han Solo: One thing's for sure, we're all gonna be a lot thinner. »
- Han Solo: Stay sharp. There's two more coming in. They'll try and cut us off.
Luke: Why don't you outrun them? I thought you said this thing was fast.
Han Solo: Watch your mouth kid, or you're gonna find yourself floating home. We'll be safe enough once we make the jump to hyperspace. Besides, I know a few maneuvers. We'll lose em'!
Han Solo: Here's where the fun begins!
Obi-Wan: How long before you can make the jump to light speed?
Han Solo: It'll take a few moments to get the coordinates from the navi-computer.
Luke: Are you kidding? At the rate they're gaining...
Han Solo: Traveling through hyperspace isn't like dusting crops, boy! »
- Han Solo: This is not going to work.
Luke: Why didn't you say so before?
Han Solo: I did say so before. »
- Han Solo: Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dusting crops, boy. »
- Han Solo: Well, you can forget your troubles with those Imperial slugs. I told you I'd outrun 'em.
Han Solo: Don't everyone thank me at once. »
- Han Solo: What an incredible smell you've discovered! »
- Han Solo: What an incredible smell you've discovered! Let's get out of here! Get away from there...
Luke: No! Wait!
Luke: Will you forget it? I already tried it. It's magnetically sealed!
Princess Leia: Put that thing away, you're gonna get us all killed!
Han Solo: Absolutely, Your Worship. Look, I had everything under control until you led us down here! It's not going to take them long to figure out what happened to us.
Princess Leia: It could've been worse.
Han Solo: It's worse. »
- Han Solo: What kept you?
Princess Leia: We ran into some old friends. »
- Han Solo: Where did you dig up that old fossil?
Luke: Ben is a great man.
Han Solo: Yeah, great at getting us into trouble. »
- Han Solo: Wonderful girl. Either I'm going to kill her or I'm beginning to like her. »
- Han Solo: YAHOOOOO! You're all clear, kid. Now let's blow this thing and go home. »
- Imperial Officer: We count 30 rebel ships, lord Vader, but they are so small they're evading our turbo lasers.
Darth Vader: We'll have to destroy them ship to ship. Get the crews to their fighters. »
- Imperial Officer: Where are you taking this... thing? »
- Luke: Come on. Why don't you take a look around? You know what's about to happen, what they're up against. They could use a good pilot like you. You're turning your back on them.
Han Solo: What good's a reward if you ain't around to use it? Besides, attacking that battle station ain't my idea of courage. It's more like... suicide.
Luke: All right. Well, take care of yourself, Han. I guess that's what you're best at, isn't it?
Han Solo: Hey, Luke... may the Force be with you.
Han Solo: What're you lookin' at? I know what I'm doin'. »
- Luke: Got 'im! I got 'im!
Han Solo: Great, kid. Don't get cocky. »
- Luke: Hey Biggs, I told you I'd make it.
Biggs: It'll be like old times, they'll never stop us. »
- Luke: How did my father die?
Obi-Wan: A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights. He betrayed and murdered your father. »
- Luke: I don't understand how we got by those troops. I thought we were dead.
Obi-Wan: The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded. »
- Luke: I have a very bad feeling about this. »
- Luke: I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home. They're not much bigger than two meters. »
- Luke: I'm Luke Skywalker. I'm here to rescue you.
Princess Leia: You're who? »
- Luke: I'm not such a bad pilot myself. »
- Luke: It's a good thing you have these compartments.
Han Solo: Yeah, I use them for smuggling. I'd never thought I'd be smuggling myself in them. »
- Luke: Listen, I can't get involved. I've got work to do. It's not that I like the Empire; I hate it. But there's nothing I can do about it right now... It's all such a long way from here.
Obi-Wan: That's your uncle talking. »
- Luke: So... you got your reward and you're just leaving then?
Han Solo: That's right, yeah. I got some old debts I've got to pay off with this stuff. Even if I didn't, you don't think I'd be fool enough to stick around here, do you? Why don't you come with us? You're pretty good in a fight. We could use you. »
- Luke: What are you doing hiding back there?
C-3PO: It wasn't my fault, sir, please don't deactivate me. I told R2-D2 not to go but he's faulty, malfunctioning. 'Kept babbling on about his mission. »
- Luke: You know, between his howling and you blasting everything in sight, it's a wonder the whole station doesn't know we're here.
Han Solo: Bring 'em on, I'd prefer a straight fight to all this sneaking around. »
- Obi-Wan: I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. »
- Obi-Wan: I have something here for you. Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough, but your uncle wouldn't allow it. He feared you might follow old Obi-Wan on some damn fool idealistic crusade like your father did. It's your father's lightsaber. This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or as random as a blaster, but an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times, before the Empire. »
- Obi-Wan: In my experience, there's no such thing as luck. »
- Obi-Wan: Luke, there was nothing you could have done, had you been there. You would have been killed, too, and the droids would now be in the hands of the Empire.
Luke: I want to come with you to Alderaan. There is nothing here for me now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father. »
- Obi-Wan: Mos Eisley spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious. »
- Obi-Wan: That's no moon. It's a space station. »
- Obi-Wan: The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together. »
- Obi-Wan: The Force will be with you, always. »
- Obi-Wan: Use the Force, Luke. »
- Princess Leia: Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper? »
- Princess Leia: Darth Vader. Only you could be so bold. »
- Princess Leia: For luck. »
- Princess Leia: General Kenobi: Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars; now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire. I regret that I am unable to present my father's request to you in person; but my ship has fallen under attack and I'm afraid my mission to Alderaan has failed. I've placed information vital to the survival of the rebellion into the memory systems of this R2 unit. My father will know how to retrieve it. You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope. »
- Princess Leia: Governor Tarkin, I should have expected to find you holding Vader's leash. I recognized your foul stench when I was brought on board.
Governor Tarkin: Charming to the last. You don't know how hard I found it, signing the order to terminate your life.
Princess Leia: I'm surprised that you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself.
Governor Tarkin: Princess Leia, before your execution, you will join me at a ceremony that will make this battle station operational. No star system will dare oppose the Emperor now.
Princess Leia: The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers. »
- Princess Leia: He certainly has courage...
Luke: Yeah, but what good will it do us if he gets himself killed? Come on! »
- Princess Leia: Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope. »
- Princess Leia: I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan...
Darth Vader: You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away! »
- Princess Leia: I don't know who you are or where you've come from, but from now on you'll do as I say, okay? »
- Princess Leia: If money is all you love, then that's what you'll receive. »
- Princess Leia: Into the garbage chute, flyboy. »
- Princess Leia: It seems like you've managed to cut of our only escape route.
Han Solo: Maybe you would like it back in your cell, your highness? »
- Princess Leia: The Imperial Senate will not sit still for this. When they hear you've attacked a diplomatic...
Darth Vader: Don't act so surprised, your highness. You weren't on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you. »
- Princess Leia: They let us go. It was the only reason for the ease of our escape.
Han Solo: Easy? You call that easy?
Princess Leia: They're tracking us.
Han Solo: Not this ship, sister.
Princess Leia: Well, at least the information in R2 is still intact.
Han Solo: What's so important? What's he carrying? »
- Princess Leia: This some rescue. What, you came in here, you don't have a plan for getting out? »
- Princess Leia: You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought. »
- Princess Leia: Your friend is quite a mercenary. I wonder if he really cares about anything... or anybody.
Luke: I care. »
- Red Six: I got a problem here.
Biggs: Eject!
Red Six: I can hold it.
Biggs: Pull up!
Red Six: No, I'm all right... ahhh! »
- Uncle Owen: Have you seen Luke this morning?
Aunt Beru: He said that he had some things to do before he started, so he left early.
Uncle Owen: Did he take those two new droids with him?
Aunt Beru: I think so.
Uncle Owen: Well, he'd better have those units in the South Ridge repaired by midday, or there'll be hell to pay. »
- Wedge Antilles (Red 2): Look at the size of that thing.
Red Leader: Cut the chatter, Red 2. »
