If you read the original draft of Revenge of the Jedi, by George Lucas, it will be clear to you that there is a 'rule of two' and the emporer is cutting Vader out...
Additionally- to settle this Dooku issue -- it is obvious that he needs to be less black-and-white and more charismatic. Unfortunately, it is obvious that he isn't Sidious. Also, we don't have the key 'Lost 20' scene which would make the whole story work. As such, suggest leaving orange saber, but dub 'Sifo-Dyas' as 'Lord Tyranus' and re-insert the final scene... to reveal that he who is running the droid army in fact creating the opposing army. This will, I think, be quite a suitable ending.
...also, the Yoda fight in Episode II needs to dissapear in its entirety.

Who cares what Lucas said? As far as the movies themselves are concerned, you have to assume that there was some interaction with the Sith at some point after the 'rule of two' went into effect. This only makes sense, given we don't even know the reason for it inside the movies.
And the proof is in the pudding -- because Yoda knows it.
It would make a lot of sense to make Dooku the good guy even in Sith, who captured the villian finally, only to be killed...
We must be able to get audio of Christopher Lee saying something like 'no, you don't understand, he's..' (over his shoulder) then a quick cut to palp 'kill him!' and the head comes off.
Also, if we cut out anakin killing the tuskens (go off on his his expression and the twisty violins) then the mediocre scene with him and padme where he confesses isn't just a confessions.. it will be more powerful, because it's a revelation.

and when Emperor in ROTJ says 'everything has been going according to my design' this should not simply be a revelation of the plot of that film, but of the whole series. (This is aided by something many don't like, namely the midichlorians. You can even leave them in, if you cut out the references to it being in the bloodstream. Just make it an observation made about he has strong midichlorians, and that its possible he was fathered by the midichlorians. There's a slim chance it can be made to work, for people picky about microscope jedi)
