The next installment of "Star Wars" isn't even out yet, and bootleggers have already forced it onto the Web. Yep, "Attack of the Clones" has been attacked by a clone -- a copy of the Lucas flick is already available for download on Usenet, and the quality isn't half bad! Evidently someone armed with a camcorder got into a screening. The Motion Picture Association of America is madder than an irregular Jawa and is involved in this case now. "Star Wars: Episode II -- Attack of the Clones" opens nationwide Thursday for aboveboard viewing.
