Going a bit off topic here but i was watching ROTJ in HD tonight and i had always though that the Coruscant footage was people celebrating and pulling down the statue. i always though where the hell are the imperials and that the celebrations were too soon. But i was wrong. Upon closer inspection the crowd at the front aren't celebrating at all but are in fact a mob crowd attacking a stormtrooper. Ben Burtt totally screwed up the sound FX on this one. Should have been the sound of an angry mob and not a celebration.

There is some real potential for a sequel series to ROTJ here. The Stormtroopers (assuming they are still Clones) were created by the senate to protect the Republic. They were genetically programmed to obey orders without question so can they be held responsible for what they did during the Imperial period? To maintain the Empire there must have been millions of them so what happens to them after the civil war (will the New Republic start it's new age by building concentration camps for the genetically modified and brain washed consequences of the Old Republic's assisted suicide?) How does the New Republic deal with the possiblity of someone else building a Death Star now that the technology has been proved to work? Does it build it's own?

Love the idea of redubbing the scene as a riot BTW.

I don't think most of the troopers are clones at that point. They don't have the accents plus they are different heights. Maybe the cloning facility became to expensive for the Empire or the sadistic Palpatine just felt like supplying his army with some fresh blood.

the clones only had a lifespan of twenty to thirty years due to the genetic engineering. the empire used the majority of the leftover clones to train other recruits at the various imperial acadamies because of their combat expierence.

the stormtroopers lack that, and obviously not very smart.
