Anakin, Ahsoka and Ki-Adi-Mundi lead a landing party to destroy a droid factory on Geonosis.
When this episode was initially previewed, I thought, “Geez, they’re going back to Geonosis? Lame…” Man was I ever wrong.
This episode is light on story and character development. But wow, if it isn’t one of the best action sequences ever done for Star Wars in any medium.
The whole thing is essentially a D-Day invasion by the Republic forces against the newly rebuilt droid factories of Geonosis. As such, it’s 100 times bigger than the previous invasion episodes in the Ryloth Trilogy. The imagery is striking and the sequences well done and amazing.
And by the time Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi utters, “Bring in the flame throwers!” I was blown away.
