Star Wars Episode III Spoiler Photos

XSSIV writes "Amazing new spoiler filled imagery from next year's Star Wars: Episode III can be found at the MovieWeb Star Wars III Detail Page. Here is the Gallery for Star Wars III Images" There are a couple of cool shots that cross into spoiler territory (although only if you don't know the Chewbacca is Luke's true biological mother).

    I saw nothing that came anywhere near spoiler material, nice imagery though.

    Darth fell in lava while fighting Obi Wan. That is why he was on constant life support in the later movies.

  6. Re:Star Wars or Hellraiser by Navius+Eurisko · · Score: 4, Informative

    Well the burned man concept pic does provide evidence that Anakin becomes Vadar because of severe buring. It has been hinted through novelizations and Lucus' early script drafts that Anakin fell into a pool of lava fighting Obi-Wan and was horribly burned. The other theory from early drafts was that Anakin fell into a nuclear core and was subjected to massive amounts of radiation. This pic certainly offers evidence that burns (and not radiation) are what made Anakin don the mask.

  7. Re:Ewan McGreagor? by Fishstick · · Score: 5, Informative

    Well, the story, as I remember it from the novelizations, has always been that Anakin and Obi-Wan have a battle in which Anakin is defeated and is horribly burned in some lava pit or something (his lungs are scortched and that is why he needs the ventilator).

    I bet that's Hayden with all the burn makeup. I don't recall that Obi-Wan suffered any major injuries duing his duel with Anakin.

  11. Re:A theory I heard was it was Lucas's ex-wife by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Informative

    Pardon my anonymousity...

    I worked on a short film with several guys from ILM, and they confirm the ex-wife theory (before I'd even heard of it). She was apparently the driving force behind the quality of those films (and the divorce itself had no small part to play in the dark qualities of Indy 2, but you can hear that from Lucas himself on the DVD).

    Don't forget the creative input of Kasdan on Empire, either. Lucas even let someone else direct the feature, which I think we all wish he would have done for the new ones.

    Don't forget the script writing prowess of Leigh Brackett on _Empire_... she wasn't around for _Revenge of the Jedi_ (sic) which to me is always why it was an inferior film.

    She wrote the screenplays for _Rio Bravo_, and _The Big Sleep_, so she had a proven track record at great writing. I'm not quite so sure why she did so little work in the 1960s and 70s, but her last work was Empire.
