Hey, Erikstormtrooper! Thanks for the encouragement and the constructive criticism. Let me start off by saying that I'm not too attached to the way I ended the movie.

Good criticism so far from everyone. Thanks! I didn't use the one line of Obi-Wan's since he seemed to say a very similar line the moment before, and I thought that "You have done that yourself" was the weaker of the two. But I may be so myopic at this point that I made the wrong decision. There's just so much that's disappointing to me in the Prequels.

I'm at work, so I can only be brief: Palpatine/Yoda fight does need work. Padme's death needs work. I agree with C3PX on what the basic resolve of the Anakin/Obi fight should have been; I have trouble with Obi leaving Anakin at all without even so much as finishing him off for mercy's sake! He doesn't pick up his lightsaber, because it seemed like an uncalled-for thing. No set up for it at all in the prequels. Seemed just a lame/rushed way for obi to have it in ANH.

I gotta go, but, C3PX, I downloaded your edit twice, and the video comes up only as colored static. Is it corrupt? I can hear the audio.
