Quote:Remember, the Clones turned on the Jedi and helped the Emperor execute Order 66. They were not exclusively loyal to the Jedi. I didn't recall the factory being closed (may have been,) but assumed the Empire would take advantage of it (unless those making the clones refused to work with the Empire after wiping out the Jedi.)


The more I think about it, all the guys upset about the 'trooper are probably getting trolled by Abrams. When you consider the guy in the stormtrooper outfit could be someone escaping using the outfit as a disguise (as Luke and Han did)... makes you think. When has a trooper ever acted so frantic? When it was someone in a trooper disguise, that's when. :ph34r: If not that, possibly a deserter. Certainly wasn't as lemming-like as your average trooper was he?

Your right about order 66 I forgot about that. Consider this the clone troopers are fighting the separatist in the first trilogy and the events after the first trilogy pick up what 20-25 years after the third episode. At that point even the youngest clone would be exiting the empires army. Now this trilogy is another 30 years after episode vi so that's 50-60 years after the clones, I'd imagine at this Point there are no clones left .
