But Palps gave the Order 66 to Commander Cody by name first!!


their clones...maybe all the Commanders were named Cody I mean, do you really think they would take the time to name each Clone Trooper when they are producing them by the thousands.


Actually...Geek time....The commanders do have different names.

2- My answer to that is simple: that particular scene takes a some years AFTER the twins are born. Notice how all the officials on the Super Star Destroyer bridge have uniforms, Palpatine wouldn't have thousands of uniforms just waiting for his plan to succeed.



But the Star Destoyer scene takes place before we see the twins being handed over.
I'd say it was more like a month or two!

I love this film. I can't believe there's so much hate towards it. Man, it's just so good.
It's made me love Star Wars all over again.
It was like watching Jedi for the first time when I ws 12...All those years ago

IMO of course

The BS of the PT!!!!

Care to explain why the PT is BS???

For my money, Sith is up there with Empire as a great Star Wars film. It's back to basics SW. A great fucking Star Wars film.
Of course this is my opinion

Why go to the touble of keeping a secret, and then tell blabber mouth 3PO all about it.
But the R2 and Yoda thing is also something I thought of the other day.

ROTS is a very good film though. I fucking love it. Seen it about 7 times now(5 on DVD ), and the end still brings a tear to my eye.

All I have to do now is get my other half to watch episode 2, then we can go to the cinema and watch it again. The way it's meant to be seen, on the big screen! (see what I done there...it rhymes!!)

Someone managed to get hold of two different copys of Sith on DVD for me. One has the timecode at the top, the other doesn't. Both have pretty good sound and picture, both play fine on my DVD player. I've watched the film at least 5 or 6 six times since it was given to me.
I watched the film twice in the cinema, and will be going again.
I'll buy the official DVD when it comes out in November.
Does this make me a bad person.... No.
Have I paid enough to Lucas to warrant me having the bootleg DVDs...Yes.
If the picture and sound were so bad that I could'nt see or hear anything I would have given them back. But for now, as a stop gap untill the official DVDs are out, they will do fine.

I don't see the harm.

What makes you think that Palps knew that Padme and the kids survived.
Pals was not around when Obi-Wan left the Lava planet, nor was he at Padmes funeral. At the funeral she was made to look like she was still pregnant.
So what gives the idea that Palps knew all about it.
I know he had a smile on his face when Vader went ape shit, but I took that as a "I have you all to myself" kinda thing.

But the lines in ESB about finding Skywalker do kinda mess up the conversation with the Emperor later on. I dunno...it's all turning into a mess at the moment.
If fat fucker Lucas is gonna release all these films again on DVD in one big fuck off box set, he really needs to sit and watch them first, and then make the changes needed!!(Don't all have a go at me at once)

A lot of people seem to miss the point here...This is on various threads, but let me point something out here.

Luke "Do you remember your Mother? Your real Mother?

Leia " Just a little. She died when I was very young"

Luke "What do you remember?"

Leia "Just images really, feelings"


So what happened in Sith DOES make sense.
I don't see any problem there!
