Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars Attack of the Clones and Podracers
An easily-missed podracer Easter egg in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones is one of many connections between the movies and the non-movie materials of the Star Wars Legends continuity. Although the modern Star Wars canon is the franchise’s current continuity, Legends was the franchise’s official canon from 1977 to 2014, with some of the Star Wars movies including direct connections to Legends-era materials. This is especially prevalent in the prequel trilogy.
There's A Blink-And-You'll-Miss-It Podracing Scene In Attack Of The Clones When Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker pursue the bounty hunter Zam Wesell into the Outlander Club on Coruscant, several vidscreens are visible, with one depicting podracers. On the frigid Mid Rim planet Ando Prime, several podracers from the Boonta Eve Classic – notably Dud Bolt and Boles Roor – are visible racing across the world’s snow-covered mountains.
You'll Never Believe Where The Podracing Footage Comes From While it is not surprising that a seedy nightclub on Coruscant would play footage of a podrace, what is fascinating about the footage is that it appears to come from the 1999 video game Star Wars: Episode I Racer. The popular game tied into Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace and allowed players to relive the Boonta Eve Classic and numerous other podraces on other worlds, including Ando Prime.
