OK first i have to compiment you for your lists. They are great. I had a lot of fun with them. There were some "reasons" that made me laugh uncontrollably. I am no particularly fun of Star Wars but i found the prequels annoying, though visually spectacular. But the think that strikes me the most and you didn't comment at all is how dumb the jedi are for trusting the clone army. At the beggining of the movie Obi-Wan is sent to investigate the plot against the life of queen (princess, senator, whatever) Amidala. His investigation leads him to a bounty hunter who might be in Kamino. He finds him there and with him a clone army that was ordered from a jedi master (or so the makers of the army say) who has died before the order (for the army) was made???!!! Furthermore the bad guy/bounty hunter is the prototype. Neither the senate nor the jedi council gave permission for the creation of the army. But there is more. The army is ready at the same time when in the senate there is a debate whether or not to create an army, which means of course that one is needed. What a coincidence, how convenient. Yoda takes the army nonetheless and goes to Geonosis. There the jedi find that the bad guy/bounty hunter, who is the prototype for the clones, works for Count Dooku to whom Yoda senses the dark side. Shouldn't the peace loving, peace protectors jedi SENSE a trap. Besides Yoda says that the start of the clone war was a bad think. Why then not participate and go along with senator Amidala's plan. Instead while it is obvious to an 8 year old that the clone army was created by the sith, one way or the other, the jedi endorse it and play the sith's game. Well done. I don't know how to call this. Plot hole? Better try plot black hole that sucked the Star Wars saga. As i said i am no particular fan of Star Wars because i am not into all these good vs evil kind of stuff. But the prequels with the clone army make me furious. In the republic, counting THOUSANDS of worlds, most likely TRILLIONS of citizens, there aren't a few THOUSAND people who would like to defend it, defend it's ideals, it's interests, it's cohesion etc (you choose)???!!! There aren't any "less moral" who would want, for the right payment, to defend whatever cause? I find that lack of faith to humanity (which i believe all inteligent life in the universe shares) annoying to say the least. These, in my opinion, make the prequels parodies of the original trilogy. It's laughable. Which is why i like your lists so much. That and for your sarcasm (and self-sarcasm).
