I saw the movie today and found the movie very entertaining. However, I have some questions on the storyline, so for those of you who have seen the movie/read the book/have a vivid imagination, can you help me with some of the questions below?

Warning: for those of you who have NOT seen the movie and do not want to know the storyline, please do not read further:

1. How come Yoda could get to Geonosis only a few hours after Mace Windu and the Jedi army? Yoda left Corusant at the same time but was able to reach the clone army, assemble them all together and reach Geonosis only a few minutes/hours after the main jedi force. If Yoda was so nifty, shouldn't the jedi knights have waited for Yoda?

2. Yoda is supposed to be Count Doogu's master, but was unable to stop him getting away. In Empire Strikes Back, Yoda taught Luke Sywalker by levitating a spaceship, so couldn't he have used the force to stop Doogu? This would cause serious problems since then the plans for the Death Star would have been halted..

3. What was the point of trying to assassinate Padme in the first place?

4. If the clone army was modelled on the bounty hunter Jango Fett, how come Count Doogu is completely unaware this army existed? Also, he must have not been paying attention to what was going on in the senate - like granting of emergency powers and the authorisation of a clone army. duh.

5. Darth Sidious is also on Corusant, along with zillions of jedi knights. So how come Yoda and council couldn't detect the disturbance in the force? I mean, it wasn't like it was galaxies away..

I'll have to watch this movie again to try to figure some of this out but in the meantime, I look forward to hearing answers or creative theories.
