50 free Star Wars: Attack of the Clones trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
Attack of the Clones is the Star Wars film that moved Hollywood into the digital age: George Lucas shot it entirely on Sony's new HD cameras, built its Yoda from pixels instead of foam, and previsualised whole battles with home-video 'videomatics' before a frame was filmed. It is also the film whose working title was a joke at Jar Jar's expense, whose Thursday opening beat Independence Day, and whose love story won a Razzie. These 50 questions cover the whole of Episode II: the plot on Kamino, Tatooine and Geonosis, the clone army's origins, the cast from Christopher Lee to Rose Byrne, the Sydney shoot and Lake Como locations, John Williams's Across the Stars, the reviews, the box office and the DVD Easter egg. Easy questions stick to Dooku, Kamino and Jango; the expert tier asks about camera models, cut cameos and who exactly was consulted on the CGI Yoda. Every answer is cited to a page we checked, with a short explanation so you learn something even when you miss. Play it solo, challenge a friend, or print it for a Star Wars night.
