Good ideas.

I addressed the whole problem of the clone army and the mystery in a different way in SOTDS. I did toss the Dex scene and used the Analysis Robot to identify the dart, but it is established through new Mas Amedda dialogue that the Republc already had an army, but it basically wasn't strong enough any more to stand up to such a huge rebel force, and they desperately need a new, better army. Palpatine clears it after getting emergency power, and they all run over to Geonosis (without telling the audience that that's what they're going to do).

I like this.

I just faded to black on this one. People don't usually do that in edits, but the fade to black appears in the original SW several times, actually.


Hehe I know. I use it later in my EPII edit too when Obi-Wan takes off from Coruscant having spoken to Mace. It then fades into the discussion with the new queen. I'm a HUGE fan of the fade outs in the original SW. They're used very effectively.
