Notes
Film
- Starts with Obi-Wan saying "yes, Master" and ends with Anakin writhing in his bed.
- Mace reveals that their ability to use the Force is diminished.
Podcast
- The shared look between Mace and Yoda.
- Callback to the "good typo".
- The universe-building that Sifo-Dyas implies.
Whenever possible, Jacob will toast to Sifo-Dyas. Shoutout to former guest of the show Tony Thaxton.
- Sifo-Dyas in the Clone Wars cartoons.
- Taun We's cut dialog where she dispels the mystery with exposition.
- Padmé was just telling Anakin not to keep a secret, and here Yoda is advocating keeping their weakness secret.
- Did Lucas intend for the Jedi to come off so badly? Parallels to modern religions straying from their ideals.
- We have yet to see the Jedi in their pure ideological state.
- Did Sidious want Obi-Wan to find the clones? Looks that way.
- Everything is going as Sidious has foreseen.
- Even though everyone is trying to kill Padmé in this movie, she survives because it is Palpatine's will.
- Callback to Jango outsourcing the assassination job to Zam. Perhaps this is Lucas' commentary on middle management.
- The Kamino sabredarts.
- Erasing Kamino from the database so that no one finds the clones until they're ready.
- Everything is going as Sidious has foreseen.
- The Jedi are ridiculously short-sighted.

- Call the 8-DAY-GREEDO hotline.
