Once the Jedi are betrayed, we should have AT MOST 30 minutes left... not over an hour. It's only there because it belonged in ROTJ and Lucas couldn't do it at the time (for obvious practical reasons) and wanted to stick it somewhere. We also spend 20 minutes wasting time (read: changing the message in the jedi temple etc) simply to get to that fight scene. Which, again, doesn't belong. [Aside from the fact that we need obi-wan to 'think as you you did' re saving anakin]
Re: Revenge of the Sith... we know the jedi wiped them out...
because we know that they want revenge for SOMETHING, and we know that the jedi are their enemies, and say they are extinct, and we're not stupid. It doesn't need to be spelled out. Beyond which, Fall of the Republic does kinda, how do you say, spoil the ending?

Well, I think you can leave Maul as Maul in the first film, because doing so allows for the 'REVEAL' when the camera pans in tight on Greivous eyes. I think using a simple audio editor, you can alter GG voice to a lower, slower tone that will be closer to that of Maul's, but yet different enough as was Vader's. The whole point is to shock the viewer when you get close up and all of a sudden, he is Maul underneath. Even change the blade colors to Red for his sabers and leave the other Jedi's alone.
I too, would like to know what this Obi-Wan edit in the OT is about. :grin.
Since Grevious has no lips, you could redub the whole thing (much though I like his voice.. maybe someone can get in touch with Matt Wood) and have him talking through the final obiwan fight and reveal himself, or claim revenge.... adds to name rots...
You could re-dub the 'you must realize.. . you are doomed' 'oh i dont think so' climactic moment of their fight to a revelation as to his identity.... even so far as to dub obiwan (as his mouth is off-screen) .
Also- we're all keen on preserving the ESB Father reveal, but is there any way possibly to preserve the Yoda reveal as well, or is that one just shot to hell?
The only way to do it would be to establish that that's Yoda's native planet, and therefore this maybe isn't Yoda.
And btw---- if R2D2 remembers everything, why would he fight with Yoda over a candy bar to the point of zapping him?

Anyway, I do agree that the story could have benefitted more from additional exposition of Tarkin. I noticed the dialogue about the deleted scene where Palpatine gave more authority to the Governors and thought this directly addressed the Tarkin situation.

Anyone want to go fishing through Peter Cushing's filmography with a pair of scissors?
