WARNING-WARNING

EPIII: Spoiler




- The Battle of Coruscant will be the biggest space battle the Star Wars franchise has ever seen.
Expect to see some cool capital ship vs. capital ship warfare. Each side has lots of varied looking warships.
The Republic has ships that are more than just Star Destroyers. Might even see an old Ralph McQuarrie design
or two get put into place here.In the opening space battle where capital ships are going at it, a scene was
animated where a seperatist ship rips open a hole in one of the republic cruisers, and CloneTroopers go spilling out into
space.Then cut to a first-person view and you virtually fly out of the ship with the clone troopers.



- Expect one of the final shots of the film to be Vader, Tarkin and Palpatine on a Star Destroyer bridge looking
out onto space at the beginnings of a Death Star in progress...(but not necessarily THE last shot of the film...)
my understanding of the last shot before iris out will be on Tatooine.

- When Padme faces Anakin on Mustafar, Anakin is incredibly upset with her when he realizes she brought Obi-Wan with her.
She led Obi-Wan right to him. From Anakin's point of view, he trusted her and she betrayed him. Anakin force-chokes
Padme and throws her aside (where she also hits her head.) Then, the duel begins amidst the corpses of the slaughtered
Seperatist leaders.

- The twins are born on a brand new never-before seen world (whose name has not been revealed yet.) They land there when
they realize that Padme isn't going to make it if they keep pushing on to Alderaan. The natives of this planet resemble
little grey close encounters/roswell aliens. Padme finally succumbs to her wounds suffered from Anakin during the birthing
scene. She is able to share a few choice words with Obi-Wan before passing. Bail, Obi-Wan and Yoda hatch the plans for what
to do with the children. Bail sees to it that C-3PO's memory is wiped. Yoda is dropped off via escape pod at Dagobah where
he will await the proper time to do his part. The jedi have been utterly duped and defeated by films end.

- Medical droids turn the remains of Anakin Skywalker (now named Darth Vader) into the classic trilogy cyborg Darth Vader we know
and love. His reveal is very "Frankenstein." (He lays on a slab that slowly rises up when he is completed.) When Vader rises,
his first desire is knowledge of Padme's fate. Palpatine calmly and cooly tells him that she is dead and that he(Anakin/Vader)
killed her. His sorrow and regret result in an awe-inspiring physical manifestation of the dark side of the force.
The entire room buckles and twists away from his anguished screams. Every droid in the room is obliterated.
Palpatine has to muster all of his powers just to shield himself from Vader's wrath. Vader's echoed scream segues directly
into the next scene: Padme's funeral procession.

-Yoda vs. Sidious DOES happen. Maybe even in the Jedi Temple....maybe in the council chambers...and maybe while the temple is
under attack and being destroyed...

- When Obi-Wan kills Grievous, his eyes come out of his head...very Raiders of the Lost Ark gruesome. George likes to leave no
doubt that his villains are indeed dead.

- Qui-Gon definitely finds a way to communicate with Obi-Wan in the film.

- You'll empathize with Anakin for feeling neglected and betrayed by the jedi order. They really don't treat him with any
respect despite his heroic actions early in the film.

- Remember the set diary where Bail is firing at unseen assailants as he gets to his speeder? Expect him to be shooting at
clone/stormtroopers.

- Obi-Wan takes Luke to Tatooine because he knows that Tatooine is the one place that Anakin will never willingly return there.


-Some spoilers have indicated that Anakin literally stabs Mace Windu in the back. This could not be further from the truth.
Windu and Anakin duel, and (while it is not an even fight, with Sidious helping Anakin) Anakin wins. Simple. However,
look to see some elements of the Return of the Jedi in there, when Mace uses the Force to summon his lightsaber, and Anakin
springs to the Chancellor/Emperor's defense. Remind you of a similar way to start the Episode VI duel?

-Also, Anakin does not literally go in there and take out all the Younglings with his saber. The destruction of the Jedi Temple is
aided by him, certainly, but he does not go from room to room slicing down Padawans. There are elements of that, but with older Jedi
(probably this is to keep it at a PG rating).

-Grevious' Body Guards: Droids with unique shield weapons that are capable of blocking Jedi attacks. These shields have been
designed with the intention of blocking saber attacks from Jedi Knights.

-Jedi Hunter Droids - Droids that have shields capable of protecting them from most lightsaber attacks, the shielding can be
compared to the shielding on the Theed Generator Complex's doors that Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan had to travel through in order
to combat Darth Maul in TPM. These droids reportively ambush a squadron of Jedi Knights in the opening sequences of the film.
The catch is that the Jedi Squadron members are flying TIE-type fighters. (Note: For those of you who are a bit slow, the droids
should be in fighters)

-Battle Droids - We see very few this time around

-Destroyer Droids - Aka Droideka's - we've seen this guys before.

-Super Battle Droids - 'Nuff said.

-Spider Droids - Perhaps a revisitation on concepts that were developed for Episode II and tossed in favor of the larger Dwarf Spider
Droids that the Confederacy of Independent Systems used during the Battle of Geonosis.

-As the ending sequences of Episode III begin to play across the screen we see Anakin Skywalker awakening as Darth Vader for the first
time since his epic duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi on the 'lava planet' known as Mustafar. Once he awakens he questions Palpatine as to the
whereabouts of Padme, to which Palpatine responds with "You killed her..." Skywalker/Vader goes into a Force-powered rage, screams the
trademark "Nooo..." and the scene fades into a sequence of crossfades including the following items:

* Padme's funeral
* Obi-Wan Kenobi arriving on Tatooine and delivering the infant Luke Skywalker to Owen and Beru Lars
* Bail Organa and his wife on Alderaan with the infant Leia Skywalker. R2-D2 and C-3PO are present on Alderaan as well.

Then, then final shot of the film features Darth Vader, Darth Sidious/Palpatine, and Tarkin on the bridge of a Star Destroyer,
overlooking the construction of the first Death Star. At that time the end credits roll.

-As the Clone Wars progressed the Clone Troopers had begun to gain a subtle bit of personality through all the battles and missions.
One trooper inparticular becomes friends with Obi-Wan Kenobi, and has apparently fought with Kenobi on multiple occassions throughout
the Clone Wars. During one battle scene in Episode III (on the planet which Bruce Spence's alien race inhabits) a clonetrooper
(who may be portrayed by Tem Morrison) hands Kenobi his lightsaber (may have been dropped or lost during hand to hand combat).
Upon handing Kenobi the saber the Trooper's face loses all thisthingisdisabled and he raises his weapon towards the Jedi in an attempt to kill him.
As the trooper raises the weapon, Kenobi is forced to take the life of the Clone trooper, thereby ending the relationship that had
developed over the course of the war.

-The scene may or may not be emotional enough for the audience, however, the audience might be able to put two and two together if the
following items are also correct.

-As previously mentioned the trooper might be Morrison, who may have shared an earlier scene with Kenobi in which the trooper had his
helmet off. It appears that the troopers are continuing to age, thus the obvious use of Morrison to portray the aging clones.

-The planet Utapau contains mines which were originally reported by some sources to be droid factories. However, the so-called factories
are actually reinforcement camps or base camps that allow for the dispersement of additional droid armies or droid army regrouping.
Utapau, aka the 'sinkhole planet' is apparently a planet that natives build homes in the sides of rock walls (American Indian influences
anyones? How about Pueblos? Get the picture?). Apparently the Jedi Ki-Adi Mundi and Plo Koon investigate this planet and report into the
Jedi Council via hologram. The action for Ki-Adi and Plo Koon tends to heat up after this scene, and it greatly affects their role in the
film.

-In addition to the above, the rest of this is purely speculation, as it appears that Ki-Adi and Plo Koon may die on Utapau while
investigating the droid reinforcement areas. Their deaths are seen on screen, yet the exact location has yet to be noted, however the
scenes on Utapu provide an excellent opportunity for the two Jedi to die following their report back to the Council.

-As items continue to develop in Episode III Yoda attains part of what seems to be a Sith book (perhaps on Kashyyyk).
Yoda states that he must "go and meditated on what is to come" at the Temple. He is then faced with confronting Palpatine/Sidious
in the Jedi Temple. Apparently Yoda is meditating in the Jedi Temple regarding the Sith and Palpatine enters. The two masters fight,
and Palpatine eventually gets the best of Yoda, having opened up a huge can of whoop arse on the green master.
The details are few and far between on this scene, and how exactly Yoda attains the book parts, but chances are the meditation is what
leaves Yoda vunerable to such a butt kicking by Palpatine.

-After choosing to side with Palpatine (following the entire Mace Windu ordeal), Anakin is sent on missions with clonetroopers to
assassinate Jedi. One such missions leads them to the lobby of the Jedi Temple, where they ambush some Jedi - including Younglings.
Footage of the attack is recorded and later reviewed by Yoda and Obi-Wan after they’ve returned to Coruscant. This seems to be the
moment when they realize Anakin has turned, and Obi-Wan is very aware that he needs to put a stop to his wayward apprentice.
The reviewed footage seems to be George’s means to imply the Younglings’ death without showing it onscreen.

-As reported, Darth Vader is attended by medical droids after the duel. After he wakes up and realizes what the operation has turned him
into (combined with Sidious telling him he was responsible for Padmé’s death), Vader can’t contain himself, starts force choking people
and throwing droids around and ultimately devastates the entire room he’s in.

-What follows is the ending sequence montage that has already been described and discussed, until we come back to Vader, Sidious and Tarkin
on the Star Destroyer bridge.

-Now, remember those three words “I don’t fear ” (by Vader) which Rick McCallum revealed in one of the hyperspace chats in summer? Well,
what Vader apparently says is, that he doesn’t fear the dark side, he embraces it.
As for his costume, there doesn’t seem to be any preliminary stage of the suit he wears in the OT, the moment he wakes up as Vader,
it’s the complete dreaded black armour again, unmistakeably.

-Following THE duel between Obi-Wan and Anakin, the Jedi Master, Padmé, Bail Organa and Yoda are on board the blockade runner
(aka Tantine IV) on their way to Alderaan. Padmé is seriously wounded from injuries Anakin inflicted upon her in the prelude to aformented
duel. They try to save her but her condition isn’t looking good at all, so the Tantive IV is forced to land on a new planet.
The inhabitants of this new world resemble the classic grey UFO aliens. They are also quite short.
This is the location where the twins are born prematurely, after being rescued from the dying Padmé, who falls victim to her injuries
shortly after Leia and Luke are removed from her. This is also where Bail, Yoda and Obi-Wan decide on how to proceed, i.e. what to do with
the (surprisingly) two children.


- The General Grevious report is completely true. As of recently, his name was still General Grevious. Could it change? Could George
re-spell it "Greevus?" Was a Saber-Dart once called a Kyber-Dart? Was Sifo-Dyas once called Sido-Dyas? Sure, but for now, that is the
reality. All that is missing from that original report is the fight between Anakin and Dooku (definitely expect limbs to be lost).
Palpatine is shackled to his chair (you saw it on hyperspace already) with a huge panoramic window behind him. The room is extremely
evocative of the Emperor's throne room in ROTJ. The Seperatist ship that they are aboard is a long, slender, sleek vessel. The hanger bay
is towards the back of the ship with giant doors that are open on both sides (so you could fly straight through the hole if you wanted.)
Do not picture a TF Droid Control ship. They look nothing alike.

-Obi-Wan and his troops (following orders from the council), track Grevious down. Obi-Wan gives chase of Grevious aboard an animal that
would best be described as a large and fast lizard. Grevious rides in a vehicle that resembles a one-wheeled version of a Hailfire droid.
During their saber duel, Grevious' forearms each split in two and he wields a total of 4 lightsabers in combat.

-Palpatine had the clone troopers made with genetic data that allows him to take complete control of them when he needs to.

-After Obi-Wan eliminates Grevious (confirmed, its a blaster up the guts. A real juicy death for Grevious. Expect his head to leak fluids
too), he returns to his troops. Palpatine gives the order for all the clone troopers to kill their jedi masters. Obi-Wan narrowly escapes
and all the jedi in the film from this point forward would be considered enemies of the Republic and fugitives. This scene is a bit tragic
for Obi-Wan as he is forced to kill a clone trooper he had befriended fighting together in the clone wars.

-Quick shots are shown on multiple worlds of clone troopers turning on their Jedi generals and eliminating them in several creative ways.
(for example, you'll see a new world, followed by Republic tanks with a jedi commander on board. The order is given and the tank next to it
turns it's turret and opens fire on the jedi tank at point blank range.) Watch for prominent jedi council members to go out this way.

-Yoda has little difficulty dealing with the clone troopers that turn on him on Kashyyyk, especially with the help of the wookiees.
You will see why Han warns about wookiees being known to rip people's arms out of their sockets. And don't expect wookiees to be portrayed
as simply "tall ewoks." Their technology is very advanced as is their vehicles, and they make good use of the lagoons on their world during
combat. Watch for Yoda to do his whole "Away with your weapons I mean you no harm!" bit to fool the clone troopers as Chewie comes up
behind them and knocks them unconscious. Wookiee vehicles definitely have a propeller theme. They have a boat with 2 pontoons
(it looks like a catamaran). And they have one-man helicopter vehicles they fly around in.

-The last mission that Palpatine sends Anakin Skywalker on is a mission to the planet Mustafar. He is to terminate the remaining leaders
of the Seperatists who have gathered there for a meeting.

-And lastly, when Mace Windu confronts Palpatine, Palpatine's electricity bolts deflect off Windu's saber and into Anakin's eyes.
Anakin flips out again and lops off Mace's arm.

Thats all more coming soon
