11:31 - Anakin (to Mace Windu, about using the Force to move the wreckage they're trapped in): "I already tried that." In A New Hope, Luke says something similar to Han when he tries to shoot his way out of the trash compactor on the Death Star: "Will you forget it! I already tried it; it's magnetically sealed!" [1:19:29].

The Clone Wars - S2E19 - "The Zillo Beast Strikes Back"
The title of this episode is a nod to that of The Empire Strikes Back.
14:47 - C-3PO: "We're doomed." He also says this twice in A New Hope [3:04, 16:02], once in The Empire Strikes Back [1:00:38], and once in Return of the Jedi [10:03].
15:32 - Palpatine: "I've got a bad feeling about this."
16:31 - Anakin: "Here's where the fun begins." Han Solo says this in A New Hope [56:26], and Anakin has a similar line in Revenge of the Sith: "This is where the fun begins" [3:48].

The Clone Wars - S2E18 - "The Zillo Beast"
1:46 - Chancellor Palpatine: "This bomb is our only hope for victory now." Leia uses the phrase "only hope" twice in A New Hope ("Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope" [35:35] and "You must use the information in this R2 unit to help plan the attack; it's our only hope" [1:38:49]); C-3PO uses it once in The Empire Strikes Back ("Your highness, we must take this last transport; it's our only hope" [31:49]); Obi-Wan uses it once, referring to Luke, in Return of the Jedi ("You were our only hope" [47:24]); and Luke uses it once, referring to Leia, in Return of the Jedi ("If I don't make it back, you're the only hope for the Alliance" [1:19:39]). Sio Bibble also uses it in The Phantom Menace: "Our only hope is for the senate to side with us" [23:48].
8:47 - Mace Windu: "I have a bad feeling about this."
9:42 - Wilhelm scream (clone trooper)
10:01 - Mace Windu (to clone troopers as Anakin distracts the Zillo Beast): "Now's our chance; let's go!" Han Solo has a similar line in A New Hope, when the lightsaber duel between Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi distracts the stormtroopers on the Death Star: "Now's our chance; go!" [1:32:02].

The Clone Wars - S2E17 - "Bounty Hunters"
16:26 - Hondo: "But you know what I always say: speak softly and drive a big tank." This seems to be patterned after Theodore Roosevelt's "Speak softly and carry a big stick."
18:37 - Hondo: "Die, Jedi scum!" C-3PO (with his head on the body of a battle droid) has a similar line in Attack of the Clones: "Die, Jedi dogs!" [1:53:27]. Insults involving scum also appear in The Phantom Menace (before the podrace, Sebulba tells Anakin in Huttese, "You won't walk away from this one, you slave scum" [57:20]), Revenge of the Sith (General Grievous calls Anakin "Jedi scum" [19:12]), The Empire Strikes Back (Admiral Piett remarks, "Bounty hunters!? We don't need their scum." [1:05:52]), and Return of the Jedi (an Imperial officer says, "You rebel scum" [1:33:51]).
