Other than Yoda’s lightsaber duels, all of the lightsaber duels in the prequels were brilliant.

No. The only somewhat-good duel in PT was Jango Fett vs Samuel L. Jackson

EDIT: Samuel L. Jackson vs Palpatine was pretty good. Can’t believe I forgot about it.

I suppose Anakin vs Obi-Wan since it had some emotion in it which kinda helps it

I can’t believe you leave out Duel of the fates. One of the best of the saga.

The best duel in the entire saga is R2 V Yoda from Empire, you all need to stop lying to yourselves https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T36q0CNYM3E

The Obi-Wan vs Dooku duel in Attack of the Clones is the most boring thing ever.

Mace vs Palps is hilarious in it’s obviousness of stunt doubles.

The second Dooku duel is boring.

Duel of the Fates is good though.

Not enough people read the EU.

To be honest I find the Qui-Gon & Kenobi vs Maul duel to be very over-rated.
The moves are impressive, those some of the video game backdrops look very silly.
The lack of verbal exchange really ruins it for me. The OT duels are about the characters striking each other with ideas, that they are also hitting each other with laser swords is secondary.

Just a few suggestions for PT:R.

EP1

When the Queens starship is running the blockade, show the reactions of some handmaidens and troops on the ship, if possible even the Queen herself. I have always found it strange that she is barely featured in this sequence.

Show Anakin losing a race to Sebulba who cheats.

After R2 repairs the shield generator, he drops back down the shoot, we then show the Queens starship making the jump to hyperspace. Whilst in hyper space, Captain Obvious notices the hyperdrive is leaking the ships sub light engine cuts out resulting in them ending up in the Tatooine system.

Maybe have a few abandoned starships in orbit. I never got the feeling of danger on Tatooine that I did in the OT.

If the Pod Race is going to be left in, I would suggest either replacing the pods with T-16’s or Landspeeders (though I highly doubt that this is feasible), in which case I thinking removing the colour schemes from the pods and making them rusting and beat up would suffice. Obviously I would also remove the commentators.

Show the Sith probe droid seeing the Queens cruiser. It does in the screenplay.

Replacing the Pods with T-16’s etc would be sweet, and even if it were at Beggar’s Canyon too, what an awesome homage that would be.

Now thinking about Jedi, after reading suggestions on how people would rewrite that movie, I do kinda like the idea of Han’s rescue on Tattooine as more of a prologue, as if it should be set shortly after ESB and while Luke returns to Dagobah, that there should have been like a lapse in time with Luke actually completing his training, and even during that time the Death Star should have reached completion as well. That movie is so flawed it could use a good retconning. :p

Does anyone have any idea on how Adywan and his team will treat the “a lightsaber… a Jedi weapon” dialogue phrase for the Prequels? Is there any way Palpatine will not use a lightsaber but only the Force in his duel against Mace Windu?

I believe neither Yoda nor Palpatine will have lightsabers. Especially not fight one another.

Yes, I believe so too… but again, any ideas on how Windu’s and Palpatine’s confrontation might play out?

Maybe he will steal one from a Jedi, use it for a bit for giggles and throw it out the windu.

With speculation that Hayden Christiansen may return in The Last Jedi to reprise Force Ghost Anakin, will he remain at the end of ROTJR?! I know Adywan intends on reinserting Sebastian Shaw and all, but at the end of the day, he’s still not regarding the Sequel Trilogy is he? Maybe recreate a more decent looking Force Ghost version of Hayden compared to what we got recently possibly…

Like I said, it’s only speculation so it may not happen. 😉

I can’t imagine that this is within the realm of consideration for TLJ.

You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

Well it was conceptualized for TFA but ultimately not used. So it’s not totally out of the realm of possibility.

Out the windu? LOL! Was that a typo? Hehe. 😄

Throw it out the windu with windu.

Another thought… I have heard people talking about “what ifs” and asking theirselves what if Naboo had been Alderaan in the Prequel Trilogy. Do you think Adywan will try to make that happen?

BAHAHAHAHAHA, out of the Windu. Classic!

Okay, here’s another. When it comes to the Battle of Endor, notably the Space Battle. What are the chances of a couple Hammerheads and that Carrier the Phoenix Squadron acquired in Rebels that could take part. Of course, they may end up being destroyed leading up to Rogue One I suppose so guess we’ll have to wait and see first. Isn’t Rebels scheduled to be 5 Seasons or something?

Those ships were in Rogue One.
