Hey guys, long-time reader, first-time commenter :)

Just wanted to throw in my two cents.  I'm all for changing the Mustafar duel's ending in some way, but if it goes as far as jumping from the arm straight to the shore (as was suggested earlier), it would cut out riding on the droids, which is admittedly kinda silly, but it would also cut out one of what I personally think is one of the most powerful shots in the whole sequence - the brief silent lull in the combat as they float down the river, staring at each other.  To me, the look of disbelief on Obi-Wan's face at what his friend has become is just perfect, and I'd hate to see it go (I'd be OK with getting rid of the dialogue around that moment, though).
