I'm still thinking of a good way to link the dart to Kamino without the Jedi seeming presumptuous. (I mean just because it was made on Kamino doesn't mean the person using it is anything to do with the planet, let alone that he'd still reside there)

At the moment, my ideas are:

1. It's made from a specific alloy that's being used to create republic weaponry for the army - in the facility on Kamino, no less.

2. Solar radiation signature analysis shows that it's spent a significant amount of time under the sun of the planet Kamino. A planet with only one facility above water - where the clone army is being created.

I want to distance Boba from the army as much as possible so that the Jedi don't look as stupid. I'd still love to be able to find a way that he not be anything to do with the army at all. The best way I can think of right now to distance Boba from the army, and make his role in its creation less pivotal is to redub the kaminoan prime minister so that he mentions that a bounty hunter has been there for a few months, and they've been harvesting his genetic material in order to make improvements to the troops - NOT have him be the sole genetic host for the clones. However I don't think this can be pulled off effectively. Not enough responses from Obi Wan, let alone the nightmare of lip syncing.

The other alternative would involve cutting Kamino completely (easily done if you don't care about the run-time and you certainly don't lose anything story-wise) however, it would involve Boba being on Geonosis, and therefore affiliated with the Seperatists who I want to be essentially good.

Dooku's only motivation in the original cut (even as a bad guy) for assassinating Amidala was......hang on.....what WAS his motivation? I mean I can see what Palpatine's was. He wanted her dead because she was opposing the military creation act, and if that failed, Jango leading Obi to the seperatists would kickstart the war and get him what he wanted anyway. But what was Dooku getting out of this? He was dumbfounded by the fact that the republic came up with an army so quickly, so he was obviously out of the loop on that one. And he can't have wanted her dead because she was against the creation of a military, because thanks to people like her, his forces were unopposed!

Oh George.

 

Anyway, to go back to your question, no I haven't attempted the redubbing yet, because the script for the analysis droids isn't decided yet. However, I do have a new toy on the way ready for when recording begins:

Nice, eh?
