ROTS End Credits
Time

I don't think I'd ever given the ROTS soundtrack a listenthrough until now. I'm listening to the extended edition someone on the internet put together, which is all well and good (beyond the odd stray sound effect they couldn't remove)...

 

But does anyone know why the End Credits feature "The Throne Room"? It makes no sense.

Should Anakin/Vader have been at Padme's funeral?

BREAKING NEWS

Musftafar

The traitorous Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi, recently removed from command when the Jedi plot to overthrow the government was revealed, has murdered General Anakin Skywalker and Senator Padme Amidala of Naboo while escaping arrest. A period of mourning has been declared on Naboo, and Emperor Palpatine, himself a native of Naboo, has issued a statement expressing his sorrow at losing two of his closest friends. The killer's whereabouts are still unknown, but he will be brought to justice.

 

 

 

So yeah, probably because he was officially dead.

that is so obviously a photoshop job

Am I the only one who finds this incredibly depressing?  Oh, how I long for a good old fashioned sci-fi movie that makes use of models, practical effects, matt paintings, stop-mo animation, puppetry, etc, instead of soleless CGI.....

It isn't entirely true, though. There were a lot of models in the PT, most people just don't know it.

I forget: Does "Han" very in pronunciation onscreen, or only off?

It does vary onscreen. In ESB, Lando tends to pronounce it like "hand" without the D, rather than "hawn." Then 3p0 picks up the variant pronunciation when Lando is being strangled.

Ah, that's exactly what I was thinking of! Good ol' Lando...

Gungans ("Goongas")

This one gets me every time.  Goongas sounds nothing like Gungans.

In all fairness, if you drop the second n and pronounce the u with a long u sound, you get "Goongas". Given that he pronounces Naboo with a long a and Hoth with a long o, it's actually pretty consistent.
