Use the Force, Daddy!

The most confusing aspect of the Clone Wars for original-trilogy (O.T.) parents is that the clones' body armor makes them look a lot like stormtroopers. (In fact, the clone troopers become the Imperial stormtroopers. More on that later.) Yet the clones are good guys whose blaster "bullets" are blue. The original DNA used to create them came from Boba Fett's dad. (Boba Fett had a rather tender home life, it turns out.) The Jedi lead the clones in battle against the droid armies. Here again, confusion. An O.T. parent hears "droid" and thinks R2 and C-3PO, but, no, the droids are tan, spindly robots, and their blaster color is orange. They are typically controlled by a droid mothership and can be dispatched by Anakin and Obi-Wan in large numbers since they are dumb. It's much sadder when clones die because of their human form. Lucas screwed up here.
