After I've been watching Star Wars Episode 2 i have a couple of Questions:

1. Why is Senator Padme so fit in the film?

2. Why does Anakin look gay?

3. Why can't Yoda talk properly?

4. Why is Yoda more powerful when he is clearly smaller?

5. Why is Yoda the only non-human Jedi?

6. Why did the audience start clapping when Yoda appeared at the end?

7. If all this happened 'a long time ago' then why don't we have the technology they have availabe to them availabe to us these days

8. How do they Jedis jump so high?

9. Why can;t R2-D2 talk?

10. What is so amazing about grown men swinging lights around?

11. When does Episode 3, 4 and 5 come out?

Thanks a lot.

She has her own fitness consultant: the Mr Motivator 4000 series.

Because he found someone fiddling with his lightsabre and he liked it.

He grew up in Cornwall

It gave him the motivation to succeed.

Because Chewie was thrown out off Jedi High for shagging the janitors mop.

They thought he was going to do the triple jump.

Time and space are so far apart that their technological advances may never be discovered by our own civilzation. Also we have cloaked our galaxy from disovery in case Jar-Jar Binks's relatives come for an extended holiday: they'd be claimimg asylum within ten minutes of touch down.

8. How do they Jedis jump so high?

Chemeleon trampolines.

Orville cut D2's larynx out in spite when he realised the digital dustbin could fly.

They are attached to their do-dahs.

Lucas has decided not to make another film involving spacemen so he's looking to film Police Academy 56: Revenge of Mahoney's Ghoolies

Played by Natalie Portman... its a naturaly follow on.

> 2. Why does Anakin look gay?

Same as question 1, except with a different actor :D

> 3. Why can't Yoda talk properly?

Different his speech is, but make sense, it does.

> 4. Why is Yoda more powerful when he is clearly smaller?

Size Matters Not. Go and watch Episode 5 now!

> 5. Why is Yoda the only non-human Jedi?

He isn`t, take a look round the jedi council room.

The cinema you were in was located in the countryside?

In a galaxy far, far away... duh!

> 8. How do they Jedis jump so high?

They use the force to levitate, or enhance their strength.

>9. Why can't R2-D2 talk?

He wasn`t programmed to. He is an astromech designed for communications with ship systems, not humans.

> 10. What is so amazing about grown men swinging lights around?

You obviously don`t like it, but most people think its pretty spectacular.

> 11. When does Episode 3, 4 and 5 come out?

3 won`t be out until 2005, but 4 and 5 are out already, e.g. 4 was released in 1977.

Yeah that crossed my mind, but he says he was in the clone wars to Luke in episode 4. Surely that means he would have to have his memory erased pretty early on in Episode 3.

I read Lucas is going to have the characters memory erased in episode 3 so he doesn't remember anything from episode 1 and 2. I think the same goes for R2-D2.

Phew! I read that as Senator Palpatine the first time. That is fairly scary actually.


However, I have a question too.

How come C-3PO doesn't recognise the farm in Star Wars 4? He worked there for years with Luke's uncle between Episodes 1 and 2.

Episode 2 was nothing compared to Episode 1.

I really, really hated Episode 2. :D Full of cliches, some cringe-worthy scenes and Yoda fighting seemed to take away from the seriousness and turn it into a full-blown comedy.

Obviously though, because I think The Phantom Menace is the best of the lot everyone will disagree with me.

So phnaar. {:)

I'll bail you out on this one. ;)

Fit she is because if not she was, in her panties not want to get, would Anakin.

If in her panties, Anakin did not get, in her womb no Luke there would be.

If no Luke in her womb, there was, no Episode 4, 5, or 6 would there be...

...and if no episode 4, 5, or 6 were there, no episode 1, 2, or 3 would there be.

If no episodes at all were there, homeless bum, would George Lucas be.

Learn this well you must, young padawan. ;)
