** The novelization ups the BlackComedy even further by having Anakin crack BondOneLiners and make {{Pun}}s as he butchers the Separatist Council members. Highlights include responding to Shu Mai's desperate pleading that Sidious promised them "a handsome reward" with "I am your reward; you don't find me handsome?" moments before cutting her down, and this exchange between Vader and Gunray:
--->'''[[DirtyCoward Nute Gunray]]:''' The war... The war is ''over''-Lord Sidious ''promised''- He promised we would be left in ''peace''!
--->'''Darth Vader:''' The transmission was garbled. He promised you would be left ''in pieces''.

** It gets even funnier. In the novelization, as part of his manipulation, Palpatine claims Obi-Wan was seen leaving a Senator’s (Padme’s) apartment at an unseemly hour. Anakin (bless his heart) immediately assumes Obi-wan was sleeping with a different ([[AmbiguouslyGay male]]) senator. It also counts as a heartwarming moment, as he trusts Padme and Obi-Wan so much they’re the last people he'd assume will betray him, and a tearjerker as he falls victim to Palpatine’s manipulations.

Added DiffLines:

* The novelization has a moment that somehow manages to be both funny and sad at the same time. Right before engaging Grievous, Obi-Wan reflects that he might well die. He's not particularly bothered by the prospect of becoming one with the Force, but for some reason, he'd always thought that when he died, Anakin would be with him. ''Ouch.''

* In the novelization, after Grievous tells Obi-Wan that he was trained in his Jedi arts by Count Dooku, Obi-Wan has this gem of a line:

* In a meta way, Anakin and Padmé desperately attempting to hide their relationship from Obi-Wan, and Anakin insisting that they can't tell Obi-Wan about it...when the theatrical films and ''The Clone Wars'' imply, and the EU states outright, that Obi-Wan ''already knew the whole time.'' And so did Captain Panaka. And Palpatine. And Rex. And Ahsoka. And Bail Organa. And then there's all of Padme's staff. It's even implied that ''Mace Windu'' suspected something. [[SarcasmMode Great job keeping it a secret, guys!]]
** The fact that Yoda, the wisest and most powerful Jedi, is never confirmed to have suspected something [[FailedASpotCheck doesn't inspire confidence in his skills with the Force]].

** The fact *** Heck, in the Legends novel ''Wild Space,'' the '''very first thing''' Yoda does after the Jedi return from Geonosis is to tell Obi-Wan he has to go over to Padme's apartment and tell them to knock it off[[note]] Obi-Wan and Yoda were ''right there'' when she ran over to Anakin and threw her arms around him after the duel with Dooku. In the novel, she [[BlatantLies promises Obi-Wan they'll end it]], and he's got enough on his mind that Yoda, the wisest and most powerful Jedi, is never confirmed to have suspected something [[FailedASpotCheck doesn't inspire confidence in his skills with the Force]].
he takes her word for it [[/note]], which he does. Admittedly, it's unclear whether or not Yoda realized they were continuing afterwards.

* After (crash-)landing in the ''Invisible Hand'', Obi-Wan doesn't even let his fighter come to a stop before ejecting and leaping into battle. In a notable role-reversal, the normally HotBlooded Anakin carefully lands and unbuckles his flight harness, makes sure R2 has ejected, and only ''then'' joins the fight. It's not the first time they switch roles in their cold master—heated apprentice relationship. In ''Film/AttackOfTheClones'', it's Obi-Wan who jumps through a skyscraper window to chase after a machine after an assassination attempt on Padmé, undoubtedly risking his life, and it's Anakin who then runs to his jet and tries to back him up. Ironic.

* Fridge hilarity when you realize that's a public transport Obi-Wan is about to board. A master Jedi, galactic peacekeeper, warrior monk with supernatural powers... is riding the bus.

to:

* ** The whole post-battle conversation is amusing in that Obi Wan is telling Anakin that today he gets to be the poster boy for the Republic's latest victory, while Anakin tries to downplay his heroism. It becomes clear that while Obi Wan respects Anakin, he's mainly buttering Anakin up so that the butt-kissing politicians have someone to schmooze over while Obi high-tails it out of there.
-->'''Obi Wan:''' Let's face it. Today ''you'' were the hero, and you deserve your [[SarcasmMode glorious day among politicians]].

* Another moment in the novelization. General Grievous subscribes to the school of YouHaveFailedMe management, and he has an even smaller tolerance for failure than Darth Vader. RealityEnsues with he gets fed up with one last panicking crew member... and then realizes he just killed the last of his bridge crew. A smaller moment in the same vein as this is Grievous [[BadBoss killing his senior gunnery officer]] for a [[DisproportionateRetribution relatively petty reason]], and then turning to the junior gunnery officer and telling him "Congratulations. You just got promoted. Take your post." [[OhCrap The poor guy can't even stammer out a complete sentence.]]

** Moreso, how Obi-Wan gets his butt kicked by Dooku a second time in the ensuing fight. Not funny in that Dooku drops a balcony on him, but that he was talking about how adept they are with fighting Sith Lords, and here Dooku thrashes him again.

* The novelization explains a large influence on Anakin's decision-making process in the movie is that he had been seeing a vision of Padme dying every time he slept for ''weeks'', so [[TheInsomniac he swore off sleep]]... Meaning the Republic fell, the Jedi were purged, and the Sith won because ''Anakin was sleep deprived''.
