That ANH lightsaber duel is pretty good, but VERY rough. The musical cues are way off. When they begin to talk about 'you can't win Darth' the cue should be from the "1:58" on Track 3 of the ROTS soundtrack. It is the moment in ROTS when the two talk, and it blends it much better. There is alot of mixed themes in that version that are distracting.

Yeah, I agree. I have no idea where that clip came from.

Thanks for your reply. However, you didn't address points 1) & 2) from my post. I have no objection to your edit in principle - this is intended to be constructive criticism. After all it's better to work out your ideas in full now than do all the work and then find they don't work.


Okay, sorry I didn't give you a complete enough response. As I've said, the plans are not yet concrete, and I agree that if the revelation is changed to "Obi-Wan killed your father", then we'll be right back where we started as far as Obi-Wan's honesty is concerned. So, that's not really a viable option. However, there might not be a need for this "big revelation" at all. The fact that Luke faces Vader, gets his hand cut off and then decides to jump into a bottomless chasm before he'll turn to the Dark Side, I think is a pretty big climax already. Now, if we can add another level to that to make it even more interesting, that would be fantastic.

And the Yoda idea is simply not feasible, because there is no recorded Yoda dialogue that's anywhere near what Commander Courage, KlingonJedi or anyone else has suggested. I mean, I don't have Rob Coleman and Frank Oz locked in my basement, I'm sorry to say. We have to have a source for this stuff to be able to integrate it into the movie.
