Weekend Music Spot: The Final Countdown.
The Final Countdown, sung by Europe, with video of the first battle of Geonosis, from Star Wars II, "Attack of the Clones."
Because the clones in this, their first battle, look a lot like Imperial Stormtroopers, when this film came out, many of us watching at this point thought something along the lines of
"Ah, so this is where stormtroopers come from, and when they're shooting at targets who don't have plot armour, they CAN shoot straight."
Of course, we learned much, much later in "The Bad Batch" that Republic Clone troopers and Imperial storm troopers are not in fact the same, but never mind!
