    Ah crap, now I'm stumped.

    Do I make a clone of Jay Maynard's cool TRON costume or of Darth's outfit? Our annual Sci Fi convention is next month and I don't want to wear my Vulcan Ears for the 24th time.

      > Jay Maynard's cool TRON costume

      I think the real TRON would definitely wear a cup and a girdle as part of this costume.

      I really didn't need to see Milton's nads.

      After ep1 and ep2 I think that picture is probably EXACTLY what I think of when I imagine a Sith Lord.

    Darth Vader makes his costume out of pajamas in order to win an amateur wrestling contest to win money to buy a car to impress a girl.

    So there you go. Black pajamas with a motorcycle helmet.

    Don't bother reading the articles.

    Just in case Yahoo news gets slashdotted, I've typed a plaintext mirror:

    Newsflash! In movie 3 of the Starwars Hexology, Darth Vader will be seen wearing something different! Fashion Moguls can get an avanced look at cutting edge fashion for "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away..." by buying the DVD set.

    George Lucas says:

    "Our fans have been eagerly awaiting every morsel of `Episode III' as we divulge it. We're giving it to them piece by piece."

    Talk about stringing it out for money. Lucas is the master.

    Another highlight:

    Also, experience how Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor have prepared for the epic lightsaber battle that has been anticipated for more than two decades: the climactic showdown between Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

    SPOILER ALERT:
    Of course, since Vader and Obi-Wan duke it out again in IV, the 'climactic showdown' will probably not end in the death of either character in III, unless Lucas has begun hiring script-writers from Star Trek TNG.

    > Does Han Solo shoot first?

    Shoot what? You mean he doesn't point a walkie talkie at Greedo and run away?

    I've been duped!

    So this is the new vader costume? I'm skeptical.

      I'd say that captures the evil of the dark side very well.

    Alderaan shoots first.
    Don't be ridiculous.
    But the empire does have evidence (well hints, ok just hunches) that Alderaan maybe have (thought about vaguely) Weapons of Mass Destruction.

    Oh and the Death Star? Thats totally not a WMD...

    I know this may not be the most popular sentiment, but who really cares about how Vader will look like? What is important to me is whether we will actually see Natalie Portman naked and covered in grits.
