It mean that the clone wars is beginning. If you recall in Star Wars A New Hope old Obi Wan told Luke that his father was a hero in the clone wars.
Second movie you will also see Anakin fall in love with the Queen even more charater development. Even though APM was geared towards kids adults understood what was going on. At least I did.
LOL! The most fear Anakin ever shows is a pinched face when Yoda asks him about his mother, and the hangar scene where runs for cover. In the entire movie, that is it. The kid races pods at 4 feet of the ground at 600 mph, and joins up with some Jedi.
I realize the significance of the title, and I know about the Clone Wars. My problem with the title is that it is so generic and lame for a Star Wars movie. Why not: "Send in the Clones" or "Killer Clones from Outer Space", these two are as original and well thought out as "Attack of the Clones." Why not "Inception of Evil", because its the beginning of the Empire, and the Clone Wars are basically a fart compared to the oppression and tyranny that the Emperor is able to bring about.
And my point about the 5-12 range is that it was geared towards children as a marketing gimmick to sell toys. Of course adults understood it, APM had the barest excuse for a plot I've seen in a movie. You'd have to be a total moron not to see that Jar-Jar, the sub scene, and various other points were excuses for Legos and Action Figures.
