And we need to establish (or establish how we're going to establish) Grievous' objectives in Episode I. He is on Tatooine in search of Amidala for the Trade Federation. Perhaps he does notice Anakin as he flees to the ship an mentions this to Qui-Gon (I suggested some rough dialogue in an earlier post). After failing to capture the Queen, he goes to Naboo with the Trade Federation, waiting for the Queen and the Jedi to return? This is what makes it so hard without Sidious. It would indeed be cool to have Grievous after the vergence in the force, Anakin, but I just don't see how to convey that or even go anywhere with it with the material we have available to us.
PS. I saw "Chronicles of Narnia" tonight; great film I highly recommend it. That said, it was an unexpected pleasure when Aslan, the Lion character, was introduced in the film and began to speak: it was Liam Neeson! He's one of my favorite actors so this really enhanced the movie for me, but more importantly he had some great dialogue that would be very useful for Qui-Gon! I look forward to discussing this more in depth as more of you see the film (which I hope you will!).
Another mind-blowing suggestion by Commander Courage that I never would have thought of. Excellent idea, My Friend. I'd love to try this, just to see if it could work.
Wow, thanks Infodroid. Like I said I just thought it would be a neat experiment, but if there's a way to incorporate it into the film somewhere that would certainly shake things up.
