Uh, Have you ever seen these SOMEWHAT related movies called "Star Wars", "The Empire Strikes Back", or "Return of the Jedi"? They make this shit blindingly obvious. Like how can you miss that Palpatine is played by the same actor as the Emporor, and (except for the ageing makup) they look identical? Same thing goes for the clones. Didn't you notice they looked a WEE bit like stormtroopers? Jeez, are you like the least observant person in the UNIVERSE?
