This animated series deals with the early days of the Rebel Alliance, starting off as a series of scattered cells and building into a threat to the Empire.
Order 66 is activated and the Jedi Order is destroyed.Īnakin becomes Darth Vader. Luke and Leia are born in secret and hidden. Major eventsįirst chronological appearance of Chewbacca. Padmé gives birth to Luke and Leia, then dies for no reason, Anakin is transformed into Darth Vader, and everyone breathes a sigh of relief that the prequels are finally over. The order of knights is all but destroyed, and Yoda and Obi-Wan go into hiding. Meanwhile, the Republic is on the verge of victory when Palpatine activates Order 66, causing the clone troopers' "bio-chips" to activate and turn them against their Jedi generals. Goaded by Palpatine and visions of Padmé's death, Anakin explores new depths of awful, eventually killing his fellow Jedi and a bunch of children, before being dismembered by Obi-Wan and left for dead. Three years after Attack of the Clones, the war comes to a head here. Palpatine acquires emergency powers over the Republic. The Clone Wars kick off between the Republic and the Separatist planets. Major eventsĪnakin's mum Shmi is murdered and he takes dark side-y revenge on her killers. No surprises for guessing that it was all a lot of flummery to give Palpatine emergency powers which he promises to give up at the end of the conflict. They all end up on the planet Geonosis, where droids kill a load of Jedi until a secret army of clones discovered by Obi-Wan shows up and carries the day. Terrible undercover bodyguard Anakin takes Padmé into protective seclusion and despite extended exposure she still falls in love with him. We meet Count Dooku (Christopher Lee) a former Jedi and secret Sith Lord Darth Tyranus, who is trying to lead a load of planets called the Confederacy of Independent Systems (or Separatists) out of the Republic for very important and definitely clear reasons. Ten years later, Anakin (now Hayden Christensen) has developed from annoying to the worst. Episode II: Attack of the Clones – 22 BBY Palpatine becomes the Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, C-3PO and R2-D2 are introduced chronologically for the first time. How anyone could possibly blockade an entire planet is never explained. A droid invasion is halted at the cost of Jinn's life, but it all turns out that was all an overly complicated double-cross to hand power to Naboo's senator and future Sith tyrant Emperor Palpatine. They escape with Queen Padmé Amidala (Natalie Portman) and exiled fish-rabbit clown Jar Jar Binks to Tatooine, where they meet young and incredibly annoying space Jesus Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd) and badass villain Darth Maul. It saw Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and his master Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) sent to officiate in a disagreement between the Trade Federation and Naboo, which led to the planet being blockaded. The infamous opening text crawl explained lots that – it quickly transpired – didn't warrant explaining.
