  Star Wars
Star Wars is an outstanding example of the space opera sub-genre of science fiction.
Many Star Wars fans first saw the films as children, and their (for the time) revolutionary special effects and simple, Manichean story made a profound impact.
Many fans of the original Star Wars movies reject the literary works of the Expanded Universe, and insist only the films or statements George Lucas has made interpreting his own works, can be accepted as canonical.

Well the theory is that most of the Jango-type clones from the wars are dead, retired, or officers of chiefs.
If you read Star Wars: Republic Commando, the main jedi character(Etain) is talking to a clone(Darman) and she mentions to him what will happen to him in another 10/20 years(i can't remember the exact number) and he says he will be dead.
Clones did still grow twice as fast so any still alive from the Clone War would be at least the equivalent of 60 by the time of the Rebellion and who knows what other medical problems effected old Clones.

After the end of the clone wars, Kamino stopped producing Clones, as they didn't see the Empire as the Republic, with whom they had agreed the contract with.
Therefore, the Clones produced after the Clone Wars wouldn't have been of the same high quality as the Kaminoan clones, as the training wouldn't be as rigourous, or the cylinder's weren't as state-of-the-art.

Lucas, speaking to reporters, emphasised that the original "Star Wars" was written at the end of the Vietnam war, when Richard Nixon was U.S. president, but that the issue being explored was still very much alive today.
