Star Wars: Clone Wars

Chapter 12 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: After his duel against Dooku, Grievous is seen putting his saber away. When he puts it on the belt, it has no spikes, but in the close up two spikes can be seen at the bottom.

Chapter 15 - S2-E5

Deliberate mistake: When Mace Windu jumps aboard the gunship and orders the pilot to turn around, and the pilot replies with "Yes, sir", there is a blaster cannon mounted in front of the pilot canopy. However, LAAT gunships do not have a blaster mounted right before the canopy. This shot evidently comes from the scene in Chapter XXIII where Windu rescues an ARC-170 fighter from three vulture Droids.

Chapter 12 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: After Palpatine and Windu have informed them about Grievous' possible location on Nelvaan, Obi-Wan and Anakin discuss the new mission. At first, the two sit quite close together, but in the next shot they sit much further apart.

Chapter 11 - S2-E1

Factual error: Anakin is reflected several times in 3PO's surface. But when 3PO shows off the rest of his plating there is no reflection of Anakin or Padme in the plating.

Chapter 12 - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When Anakin sucks the worm into his mouth, the sewer map is revealed underneath. But there is also a heap of dirt and bugs on the parchment when he sucks the worm in; while in the shot where the map is seen in full, there are only a few bugs scattered on the sheet.

Chapter 14 - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When the mutated Nelvaan braves are unleashed on Anakin, and Anakin tries to calm them down, there is a shot of the last Nelvaan male in the mutation tube with his arms free. Before and after that scene, though, his arms are shackled.

Chapter 11 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Anakin and Padme kiss in the alleyway, an alien passes by, glancing at them, and they break up. But in the first shot (from the main street side), when the alien looks at them it is almost past the alleyway. But in the next shot, when Anakin and Padme break apart, the same alien starts walking by the opening once again.

Chapter 14 - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When the temple caves in some rocks and crystals appear to go through the floor and the ones that don't are gone in the next shot.

Chapter 12 - S2-E2

Audio problem: When Anakin returns from the infiltration of the enemy city, he sits down and says 'Lunch'. But he moves his lips twice for a one-syllable word.

Chapter 13 - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Mace Windu cuts his way into the Seismic Tank, a score of droids is waiting for him, including one to the left of the opening. He still stands there as Windu completes the cutting, but the patch Force-smashes only into the droids right in front of the opening; the lone droid should be unaffected due to his position. But when Windu jumps in, the droid is suddenly gone.

Chapter 15 - S2-E5

Factual error: When a droid fires a continuous laser beam at Windu, it is drawn over the street before Windu deflects it. But the beam curiously does not cut up the pavement or even leave scorch marks.

Chapter 13 - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Mace Windu jumps up to the top of the hill where the boy is standing, we see that he lands on one knee, but in the next shot he is standing up to his full height, and his lightsaber is pointed in the opposite direction.

Chapter 17 - S2-E7

Other mistake: When the Clone Troopers dispatched to protect Anakin arrive on Yavin 4, Anakin addresses their leader as Sergeant. As stated in several sources, Clone Sergeants have green markings on their helmet and arm armor, but this one has the plain white armor of a regular Trooper.

Chapter 11 - S2-E1

Audio problem: When the Jedi Council are discussing Anakin's promotion to Jedi Knight, in a wide shot, we hear the voice of the female, dark-skinned Jedi saying, "Yes. We need more knights." But her mouth is closed as she says this, and the male Jedi Even Piell (the Jedi talking in the previous shot) is moving his mouth as if he's the one talking. (00:05:25)

Chapter 13 - S2-E3

Captain Fordo: Fall back! Fall back! Fall back!
Yoda: Hold your positions! Hold your positions!

Chapter 15 - S2-E5

Trivia: In Revenge Of The Sith, General Grievous' first appearance was made notable by his rasping cough. In the Star Wars storyline, the crushing of his chest by Mace Windu in this episode was presented as the logical reason; but actually, George Lucas merely wanted to signify that Grievous is not a droid, but a cyborg.

Answer: Her date of birth is unrevealed. What little is known is that she was found as a child (precise age unknown) by a Jedi who crashlanded on her homeworld of Rattatak somewhere around 40BBY (precise year unknown). Realising her Force potential, he took her as his Padawan and trained her for some years, only to be cut down by a local warlord before he could finish, leaving her to seek vengeance on the warlords who had conspired against him, precipitating her fall to the Dark Side. It's difficult to determine her precise age from all this, but if we assume that she was ten when she was found, and that was in 40BBY, then Asajj would be 28 at the outbreak of the Clone Wars. So figure on anywhere in a range a few years either side of that.
