One Underrated Scene Proves 'Attack of the Clones' Could Have Been a Much Better Movie

— Lais Borges/Inverse; Lucasfilm

One of the most random and offbeat yet memorable moments in the Star Wars prequel trilogy comes in Dex’s Diner during Attack of the Clones. With a classic wipe transition, the movie drops Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi in this railcar-type space diner on the bustling city-planet of Coruscant. Transports whizz by outside, and inside the music sounds like ‘50s rock ‘n’ roll by way of a jukebox cantina band. Jawa juice is on the menu, and the droid server’s nametag reads Flo in Aurebesh. But it’s the four-armed owner, Dexter Jettster (Ron Falk), who makes the biggest impression with his tendency to interject sinister little laughs into everything he says.
