I'm going to remove any references to Padme being elected, and any references to how old Anakin is. We might as well just not bring it up at all, I guess.

Duel of the Fates is going to occur where they are harnessing the energy source, which makes the columns and the exhaust doors make sense.

And in this situation, I will be keeping Yoda and Mace's exchange, but without the close up of Palpatine at the end.

Maul's voice will be pretty similar to his original voice, I can do a fairly close version of that. I like the calm and collected voice. It makes him even more sinister, I've always thought.

So we have a clear, active and really badass villain, a clear plot structure, a kid, a cute robot, awesome fight scenes, great music, and Natalie Portman.

Sounds like a good movie to me.
