(I seem to recall imagining, when I was a teenager and really consumed with Star Wars, that surely the Clone Wars must have been fought over clones or cloning, not merely with them. “You fought in the Clone Wars?” Oh man, do I remember hearing Luke Skywalker say that when I was eight years old and thinking, Wow, cool! Clone wars! What could that have been? Now, I’ll concede that what the Clone Wars actually turned out to have been, in that historical era a long time ago in a galaxy far far away, is probably not as mindblowing as my eight-year-old mind could have invented, seeing as how it’s just a big galactic civil war with cloned humanoid soldiers on one side and droid armies on the other.
