Attack of the Clones is set up 10 years past The Phantom Menace, Queen Amidala (Natalie Portman) has now become Senator Padme Amidala and Anakin (Hayden Christensen) has grown up and become a love crazed teenager and an apprentice to Obi-Wan (Ewan McGregor). Just like The Phantom Menace there is still a lack of organized storyline and things get a bit blurred within the politics and reasoning, but it’s still interesting to look at and keeps the attention going. Finally, we get to see Yoda kick a little ass and R2D2 and C3PO pair up.
In Episode 2 Senator Padme’s life is in danger from an evil group of political activists led by the crazy ass Count Dooku, and Obi-Wan and Anakin comes to her rescue. Anakin makes it a personal goal to stay by Padme’s side and protect her, while doing so they begin to fall in love with one another. Anakin knows this is not allowed according to the Jedi code, but he can’t help it. He also begins to show his interest in the dark side and gives us a glimpse of things to come with Vader on the horizon.

Lucky for us, and Lucas, there is enough interest in seeing more of what was once so wonderful and plenty of eye candy to keep the audience occupied and blind to character flaws and short comings in the plot.
