Notes
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): General Grievous, whose two arms can split into four, has a total of twelve fingers (six on each hand when his arms aren't split). However in some shots (such as when he orders his ship's bridge crew to fire the emergency booster engines in an early scene) we can clearly see he has five on each hand when his arms aren't split. In other shots, he has the correct number of fingers. (more)

Trivia:
The hot rod speeder car driven by Sen. Bail Organa (Jimmy Smits) is based on the front of a Tucker that is parked at Skywalker Ranch. (more)
