Thanks to the incredible longevity of the Star Wars brand, kids today are nearly as hungry for plastic lightsabers and X-wing flight simulators as they were in the 1980s.
The clones, which have been genetically modified to make them more obedient, are seen by the movie's heroes as little more than another military technology, like battle droids or lightsabers. (The clone army apparently plays a role in the downfall of the heroic Jedi Knights, even turning one, Anakin Skywalker, into the evil Darth Vader.) These clone warriors are the ultimate mindless flunkies.
