JasonN has Dooku as a Jedi in his PT edits, where he is a Sith in the theatrical edition and a Sith still masquerading as a Jedi in the magnoliafan edit.

In an ideal world DVD and Blu-Ray players would all come with a memory card which would record which branch you took on one disc and carry it over onto the next but the plot changes need not be crappy ones.

They could change the mood and flavour of each performance without changing the final outcome (in Dooku's case he still dies after being used by Palpatine to stir up a phony war as a means to take control) until the final episode.

The only problem I can really see is one of disc space, all this branching would (I imagine) take up a lot of memory.

Maybe some of you more experienced disc spinners could come up with a solution.

It might mean having to split the films in half to make room for more branches (which would bring up again the problem of continuity).

As the style evolved perhaps technology would adapt with it making more radical branching possible.
