On the whole lightsaber issue/problem. Had a sort of wild idea; could Anakin give Obi-Wan his lightsaber the last time they see each other before Obi-Wan leaves for Utapao. Instead of Anakin saying "Your going to need me" - Could it be changed to "you might need this", and then move into a close up of two hands with the lightsaber changing hands?
Just a thought... It could also mean that he already has a red blade when he cuts Windu's arm off. Would possibly change the perspective of Anakin turning up at Palpatine's office that he had already decided to side with Palpatine and made himself a new saber.
Just a thought...
It's a good idea.
Instead of Palpatine's lightsaber falling out the window, it could fall on the floor. Anakin would then pick it up and use it to slice Mace. This would then be the saber that he uses in the duel.
As for why Obi-Wan needs Anakin's saber, he is going against Grievous who is known to fight with multiple sabers. In addition, Obi-Wan does eventually lose his lightsaber. Maybe you could cut the scene where he gets it back, so that he does in fact need Anakin's lightsaber to escape order 66. Maybe he even uses Anakin's saber in the duel? However, you have the question of why doesn't Obi-Wan use Anakin's saber versus Grievous, unless you cut it so he loses it before then or have some other death for Grievous.
That still really doesn't make sense. Why are two sabers better then one?
