Going by your interpretation, it seems Bail Organa inadvertently got the whole military-police-state ball rolling, but regretted that later seeing as he is Rebel-aligned in ANH. He was killed by the monster he helped create.


This adds an interesting layer of complexity to his character!


That's the idea! :)

By not showing *precisely* how everyone got to the physical locations they were in when we first saw them in the OT, I hope to avoid Lucas' mistake of treating the audience like a bunch of idiots.


Hell, I'm even thinking of scrapping Yoda's lone appearance and not showing Vader donning his black suit. Those kinds of scenes would serve no purpose in my treatment, other than pointless wanking.


Agreed. I'm currently toying with have a Vader with some scars, and some machine-augmentations, but not the full suit, because, in the words of Mr. Plinkett "Did he just have that thing lying around?" The suit really seems like something Vader would have planned and worked on over a longer period of time...
