The latest Padawan Post has arrived and here are some features for you to enjoy:
Match the Music to the Scene
A score is music that is written for a movie. John Williams has written and produced the score for each film of the Star Wars saga. For Episode II: Attack of the Clones the challenge was to musically represent the film's main themes - Jedi action and forbidden love - while supporting the story's many events, including the foreshadowing presence of Darth Vader and the Empire. "Match the Music to the Scene" is a new activity that challenges you to listen to ten selections from Ep II's score and then click on the correct scene in which you think the music is from. The key is to really listen to the music, its mood and pace, to help you make your selection. Turn up your speakers! You may never listen to Star Wars the same way again.

Lore: Who Is the "Chosen One"?
"The idea that Anakin was the Chosen One doesn't run with me. He turns to the dark side and betrays everyone. What kind of a Chosen One is that? True, in the end he did turn but it was all Luke."
~ Padawan SomeStarWarsFreak
"By far Anakin is the Chosen One! He has more midi-chlorians than Master Yoda!!"
~ Padawan generallee5
From Qui-Gon Jinn's first conversation with the Jedi Council about Anakin, wise Yoda makes it immediately clear that Qui-Gon's opinion that Anakin is the Chosen One is only an opinion. Many young fans of the saga agree and have their own opinions about the Chosen One, even though the issue has been answered by George Lucas. This Lore feature considers some of the opinions that keep this debate alive. Click here to read more.
