ON TOPIC ATTEMPT :S

i was thinking of how the characters were originally intended to be introduced in ANH, then how they actually were, and how much stronger it was as a result. i love the way luke is called by beru, and we immediately relate to him as a result.

now this self critical approach to film editting can clearly be attributing to lucas' ex wife and editting phenomenon. are there choices that can be made in the PT with this mentality?

how could anakin be introduced perhaps in this manner? perhaps he might not be a slave, so his choice to leave may be a little less black and white and may have an element of sacrifice attached to it?

i put this consideration forward a while ago, but what if the naboo starcraft makes it to tatooine independant of the jedi, and the jedi are travelling to tatooine to collect anakin. they are weary of helping the naboo for whatever reason, but anakin forces them to get involved so qui gon can teach him.

if there is a way, perhaps quigon can speak of the prophecy to shmi, and maybe the chosen one could be like some reincarnated guy who quigon knew a long time ago. sidious is the old arch enemy of the chosen one perhaps.
