E.g. It was a complete shock that Vader revealed that he was Anakin Skywalker. If Episode III reveals that, then the shcok won't be so great for the new generation who will watch the prequel trilogy first. Well, they should watch IV-VI first then. Obviously. Beside, "Luke, I am your father" is one of the most famous quotes in the history of anything ever. (Despite the fact it's wrong. It's actually "No. I am your father.") So there's a fair chance the next generation will find out that little nugget before they even watch any of the films.

Vader's Luke's father? Aw... SPOLIER WARNING next time...
Anyhoo, Star Wars is a very good kids movie. And that's all it is. This is an OPINION brought to you by Flamebait (c)

Did you know that Star Wars: Battlefront is released the same day The classic Trilogy is released on DVD?
The Star Wars classic Trilogy DVD is being released tommorrow! I've seen clips of it, and the special effects, of course, are now just as good as the Prequel Trilogy's! Prehaps now the Rancor in Episode VI will no longer look like a rubber suit in some scenes.

Um, this is gonna sound thick, as Im more of a fan of the original trilogy and not all of this new stuff (a bit like Sonic I guess!) and I know now that the episodes start with 1 to 3 and the old ones are now 4 to 6. But which one is episode 3? Ive seen the phantom menace and attack of the clones but no third chapter. When did or does it come out?

Thing is tho....spoiler here, but Im sure everyone knows....
We all know whats gonna happen: Anakin goes to the dark side! So what Im interested in is how...coz atm hes not tempted at all by the dark side. Other than that, the rest is history and we've pretty much seen it. I hope an unexpected twist features in the next instalment. One that will still make sense with the original chronology.

Other than that, the rest is history and we've pretty much seen it. I hope an unexpected twist features in the next instalment. One that will still make sense with the original chronology. He is tempted by the Dark Side. You saw what happened in Episode II, after his mother died, he killed all the Tusken Raiders in cold blood that he almost fell to it. Plus, in the Clone Wars cartoon, when fighting Asantre Ventras, he attacked her so ruthlessly that he he almost let the Dark Side take control of him. But this is my theory of how he finally turns... In Episode III, he will fight Dath Tyranus one last time. The scene will be similar in Episode VI, when Palpatine tries to turn Luke to the Dark Side. Sidious pits Tyranus and Anakin aginst each other, in order to turn Anakin. Anakin kills Tyranus, and becomes Darth Vader. Then after that, we should all know that he duels with Obi-Wan, falls in molten pit, and dons the nightmarish armor to survive. I'm also wondering how Mace Windu will die. Will he be killed in Episode III, or will he survive Episode III, only to be killed, lets say, 12 Years Before Episode IV by a grown-up Boba Fett? As Mace did kill Boba's father, Jango, in Episode II.

When he chops off Vader's hand and his own turns to that scary black hand! ugh, that creeped me out!! hmm, you got me there! ;D He may have said int film, it was years ago the last time I saw it, but how did Yoda get onto the stinky marsh planet where he trained Luke?

All the jedi go into hiding (including Yoda and Obi-Wan) Not all of them. At least 3/4 of the Jedi get killed in the Jedi Purge after the Empire rises. Oh yes, I also heard that we'll finally see Darth Sidious using a Lightsaber in Episode III. Many people have said he'll have a slow, elegant, but strong and powerful style.

I at first belived that he is Palpatine. But now I'm not so sure. In II, Palpatine had very pale skin, but Sidious had a darker skin tone colour. Plus, when looking at the hologram of Sidious at the start of Episode I, you will be able to see (just barely) almost all of Sidious face, and well, its hard to describe, but he looks similar to Palpatine but not like him. However, this just made me unsure, there is a lot more evidence of Palpatine being Sidious. See: Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter to see why!

Well I like the originals as at the time scifi wasnt as cheesy as it is nowadays. In fact I could probably blame StarWars for making it that way! The new ones juts dont seem to make much sense. Great effects and all that but the plot is so intricate with so many characters and twists that its hard to follow.

They are bit more aimed at the younger fans, but they're full of facts that can help you understand the prequel trilogy and how it will tie in with the classic trilogy.

Their voices are identical. Sidious dresses the same as the Emperor. George Lucas is not a man for subtleties and red herrings...

I think Palpatine and Sidious looked a tiny bit different because George Lucas needs to make them look different because the audiance is supposed to guess who sidious is. I think George Lucas is trying to trick us.

Oh god, I didn't say I belived that Palpatine isn't Sidious. Just stated that Sidious has a darker tone colour. I wouldn't let a small thing like skin tone would get me to belive that Sidious isn't Palpatine. Plus, my friend once belived that Sidious isn't Palpatine. I did argue, saying he is. He said things like that Sidious could have transferred his powers to Palpatine and give him his cloak before he dies. But I am still convinced that Palpatine is Sidious. Firstly, in one or two comics, he keeps saying stuff about dealing matters on Coruscant, also saying that things in the Senate stay under his control. Secondly, in Shadow Hunter, Lorn Pavan manages to escape Darth Maul and finds Senator Palpatine. Palpatine puts him in a secure htel room, but next morning, Darth Maul arrives in Lorn's room to kill him. As I said, I never belived or stated that I completely thought that Palpatine is not Sidious. There has been a lot more and complex evidence that he is, and not,small evidence that he is not.
