I feel like this movie needs a purpose in the grander Star Wars saga. In a hypothetical universe where this edit was the prequel trilogy we got, what kind of twist could happen that would re-contextualize the Original Trilogy? Some great truth that would be revealed that would make you watch the originals in a new and exciting way?

Perhaps Anakin’s turn is entirely Obi-Wan’s fault, even if he didn’t mean it? Maybe Anakin was doing fine and then Obi-Wan recommended that he talk to Palpatine about something, introducing both of the characters. Palpatine senses potential - maybe his decades long scheme can finally come to fruition with Anakin as his enforcer.

When Obi-Wan confronts Anakin on Mustafar, he pleads for Anakin to return to the good side. Anakin then offers Obi-Wan join him - give him a place in the new Empire. Obi-Wan rejects him.

I don’t know what to do about the twist?
