I think the "BL" he was referring to was "Blue Lanterns". Put the Jump to Conclusions Mat back in the closet

Actually, in context I'm pretty sure "BL" was meant to stand for "Blue Lantern" not "Black Lantern".

Yea sure its a kids show just like Family Guy and American Dad and Beavis and Butthead and South Park

well train times have changed man with this whole rating system.


and sorry but simpsons is no where near beavis and butthead

C'mon, guys; you're missing the point. South Park is terrible.

To me, part of what makes the Star Wars show so cool is that they flesh out the clones. They are shown as individually minded, there's: Fives, Echo...I forget the rest right now.

Anyway gotta run, Star Wars RULES!

You see!? This is what I'm on about... they're CLONES. They shouldn't have personalities, they get shot and die, that's their personality.

SLIGHT SPOILERS FOR YESTERDAYS CLONE WARS EPISODE FOLLOW:


They sort of addressed this on yesterday's show. There was a Jedi General who kind of loses it. He's sending out clones to die without remorse.
When alone, the clones start questioning how far loyalty should go? One of them says something like, "we're clones not droids, we have the right to choose."

But see, that's the thing. They really shouldn't. Episode III demonstrated that, in fact, the clones ARE much like droids, in that they could ALL be programmed to obey an order to turn on and murder their Jedi allies, with no visible hesitation. Given that fact, it is difficult to picture them being designed (which they were) with the ability to choose to disobey.

Of course, if they were unfailingly obedient, that would make them far less interesting as characters, so I guess given the decision to make them a big component of the show, they had to go that route or risk boring us.

Lucas has said several times that Order 66 was not programming. The Clones serve Palpatine and the Republic, not the Jedi. There is no question about where their loyalties lie. If the order comes from the highest office, it is done.

"Make out"? She kissed him once for a second. If that's making out to you, you really need to get out more.
