I think the scene in ESB would still work fine, although very differently from what we're used to. It will go from being a total surprise to being a surprise for only the main character - i.e. what you could call the Scottie Ferguson Narrative. From "What will happen?" [in general] the effect becomes, in Hitchcock's words, "What will he do when he finds out about it?" And that's still pretty cool. We didn't stop enjoying rewatching ep.4 after knowing the reveal in ep.5.

If keeping the surprise for new viewers can be done in a convincing way I would love to see it, of course. Magnoliafan claimed to have a way before he left the board. It would also be pretty cool to have Vader, the new apprentice after Anakin dies, kill the younglings (as suggested in this thread), but it would mean insane amounts of rotoscoping.

Davnes did a great job and even killed Jar Jar in the video. We have both agreed that the fight against Obi Wan should happen earlier in the film. It should be made to look like Anikan died. Then Darth Vader shows up and attacks the Jedi Temple. Palpy even says his New Apprentice Darth Vader.

I wonder if it would be possible to make Darth Vader force choke padme instead of Anikan. Anikan should fear the death of Padme and the rise of Vader.
