This is really suprising as the rest of the prequel marketing really gave the classic trilogy the shaft. The prequels get a bonus disc in the DVD release each while the classic trilogy had only one disc for the whole set. Each prequel had its own Visual Dictionary while the classic trilogy had all 3 movies crammed in one book. I'll never figure out LFL.

from the revised 4th:

208. INT. PORKINS' STARSHIP - COCKPIT - DEATH STAR
(165)
CU. Porkins (Blue Pig). The Death Star horizon rotates outside the cockpit, as the control panels inside Pig's ship go wild.

PORKINS
I've got a problem here... my converter is running wild...

BIGGS
Eject, eject, Blue Six, do you read?

PORKINS
I'm all right. I can hold it. Give me a little room, Biggs.

BIGGS
Pull up... pull up.

It makes MORE sense for Shaw to be at the end because it shows that as Vader was aging, so was his good, human side and that is how Luke was able to help him redeem himself. The whole, "...there is still good in you..." thing.

Or we could just use the logical answer that says since Anakin was human and only part machine, his human side would age normally.

No matter, it is hands down one of the dumbest changes in all of the SEs.


I think I was able to figure out Anakin had joined the light side by:
1. He was able to maintain his identity through the force (obviously).
2. He killed Palpatine and saved his son.
3. He appeared in his Jedi robes instead of his Vader suit.

I certianly didn't need George to play musical chairs with people's heads to tell me that Anakin had redeemed himself.

And another thing... why did the Hayden version appear in robes that never wore in the prequels anyway?

Robot scene idea. Instead of some funky special effect, why not just cover up the whole window with a solid wall? Or change it to a window of an exterior coruscant shot? Or the solid wall with an "I Want to Believe" UFO poster on it? Why would this analysis computer need to be a huge thing, or even a room full of droids? I'd imagine Obi-wan was at a terminal that connected to the mainframe somewhere else. The explanation would come out of the speakers of the computer.

If you are still insistent on adding effects to this scene. then maybe you could have extra text on the computer screen that matches the dialogue as well.
