    • Annakin has a son he knows about

    • All good Jedi except Yoda and Obi-Wan are slain
    • The Emperor gains control of the clones and has an iron-clad lock on the Senate (later dissolved in Episode 4)
    • The Stormtroopers get new helmets.
    • Annakin gets a new suit and his voice suddenly sounds like James Earl Jones
    • Grand Moff Tarki
    • Oh, and you forgot the scene where Luke's mom prophetically says, "Gee. I wonder if these two will ever end up on the wrong end of a love triangle because I separate them...naaaaah."

      Doesn't seem like that couldn't all happen in one movie. Might be a little crowded, sure, but what the hell.

      A lot of that doesn't have to be established as such; it just has to be hinted at properly. "What are you doing with the babies, so Vader won't get them?" "Obi-Wan is rescuing the boy. The girl is going to Alderan.

      You are what you think.
      • They've already set the scene for a bunch of these. Leia's "Father" has already shown up, though they didn't name him. Jimmy Smits in Episode II played "Bail Organa".

        Lucas has an advantage. He knows that we've already seen episode 4. All he has to do for a bunch of these is to just nudge the plot in that direction and leave the intervening 20 years between 3 and 4 to the viewer.

        The only thing I hope for is that we do bring Han Solo into the story in some way. He's already given nods to Boba Fett, Jabba

    • To be honest, I think all that could be done in a two hour movie, although the thought of having multiple movies is nice. A few thoughts:

      I miss anything?

      Yoda and Obi-Wan go into hiding in their respective new homes. I sure hope we see this.

      A young Han Solo will possibly be introduced.

      This seems doubtful, although Han is probably the most missed character from the original trilogy. Han is only a few years older than the twins. Episode II is probably not going to show the twins as anything old

      • Don't forget that we saw quite a few Jedi go down in the droid battle. If they do show the slaughter of the rest of the Jedi, I wonder how they're gonna handle those kid Jedi's...

        • Lucas has said that Episode III will be "very dark"; to the point that he thinks some of us may not like it. That may include wholesale slaughter of the younglings; who knows?

          I've wondered if the great purge has already started behind the scenes. Mace Windu said he would take "our remaining Jedi" to Geonosis. Had a bunch of Jedi disappeared, or were they all out on lunch break? If the number of Jedi fighting on Geonosis represents "all the Jedi left," that's not near as many Jedi as I thought were in
