Good suggestion. Jedi and Griveous should have some interaction before Utapau.
Aye, Grevious needed more screen time really, was also needed in AotC could of done with being on Geonosis and seen killing a few Jedi, but hey that would of actually involved Lucas thinking ahead.... He never seems like much of a threat in the films, unless you've seen the Clone Wars (esp the Cartoons) if you did watch them, he was a massive disappointment in film IMO. Killing Shaak Ti actually makes him seem like a threat, and adds more to the duel between him and Obi-Wan later IMO.
Possible suggestion on the order for scenes on the Invisible hand, I'm sort of considering a fan-edit, but am only in the planning/learning stage. If your ideas are set Aalenfae, please don't feel I'm trying to change your vision for the film, this was just just my thinking.
Hanger Bay enterance... cut the usual stuff (I’d suggest cutting most of R2’s shennaigans). Right after the hanger scene, add Anakin and Obi-Wan running into Grevious, he executes Shaak Ti, they cut the floor open to escape, Grevious says don’t shoot due to risk of explosion.... Ship attacked... Anakin and Obi-Wan emerge from hatch (later in deleted scene).. Anakin seals it (I’d suggest keeping the humour of Obi-Wan saying “it won’t hold”; “Ok I still have much to learn” (adds to the friendshipvelement I think)... Move to Anakin + Obi-Wan attacked by Droidecka’s, enter lift (cut the lift full of dumbass droids which seem unable to shoot before talking).... Duel with Count Dooku.... Everything I’ve seen of your edit so far with Dooku is awesome! They head to elevator door...
Cut lift collapsing, though keep ship crashing down.... Next scene have Anakin, Obi-Wan and Chancellor get up outside the lift; elevator charges off; ( – Gives the impression they got the elvator, with explosions going they are getting up from the explosions going off)... I love pretty much everything you’ve done with the scene after they get off the elevator. Only suggestion I’d make; You could use some of the shot of Anakin and Obi-Wan killing a few battle droids on the bridge and Nemodians running away from Bridge (gives the impression they’ve stormed the bridge).
