I dunno about these pics. In this one, it looks like Hayden and his bestest buddy just completed a succesful assault on a cheap costume shop in order to get ready for Thursday's bitchin' Halloween kegger down at the Tri-Lams.

"Oh please. There's no such thing as a 12-inch pianist!"
My original post was mostly in jest, but the argument that Lucas is "the same guy" doesn't hold any water. Flesh and blood, perhaps. Spiritually, and in his soul, definitely not.
C'mon, how many 60+-year-olds do you know who are the "same guy" they were in their 20's? Or haven't you noticed how conservative Dennis Miller has become?
Just because he's the same DNA doesn't make him the same person. This is the Evil George we're seeing now.

Let's look at a selected history of lightsaber injuries here. First, Dooku removes one of Anakin Skywalker's hands. Then, if these pics are accurate, Anakin returns the favor by removing both of Dooku's. In Episode V, Anakin (as Vader) removes one of Luke's hands. And finally, Luke returns that favor by removing Vader's prosthetic hand.
You'd think that at this point, some Jedi genius would have come up with at least a hand guard for those goddamn things.
On a different note, I propose a caption contest for the picture of Yoda, prone on the floor with his cane several feet away. My entry is, "When nine-hundred years you reach, as many push-ups you will not be able to do."

Wow, you never saw Ep 2??
Dude, that was the one where it all starts to make sense!
You mean you never saw the epic battle between Anakin and Darth Jar Jar? One of the best sequences in ANY film EVER!
"Meesa gonna cut yousa, Annie! Meesa gonna cut yousa real good! Yousa not gonna see dat sun come out tomorrow! Yousa gonna feel the power of the dark side!"
Man that was cool. Then Darth Jar Jar KILLED Anakin and assumed his identity. Wicked. THAT's why Darth Vader wears that damned mask that filters his voice! Ep 5 would have sounded pretty weird if Vader had said, "Luke, meesa you fadder!" Ep 4 would have sucked if he had said "Meesa find yousa's lack of faith distoobin!"

Well, in the extras in the trilogy box, Lucas says he likes to use concepts and scenes of other movies in the new ones. Like the trailer in Episode II, apprentice fighting dark evil lord, starship battle in an asteroid field and so on.
So, I have great expectations for Episode III: Natalie Portman in Gold Bikini!!

Here is a half complete list of future changes when the six movies are released in a DVD box next year:
In Episode IV:
The face of Ewan McGregor is digitally aged and imposed over sir Alec Guiness face.
Darth Vader is digitally shrinked to fit Hayden Christensen, and his voice is now done by Rick Moranis.
The dialog between Han and Greedo changes. Now Han tries to convice Greedo to abandon his life of crimes. Greedo shoots himself.
In Episode V:
Darth Vader's lightsaber is not red anymore, but violet, with yellow sparks.
There is a new and very emotional scene of Boba Fett gathering with stormtroopers, whom he calls brothers.
Since it might shock people, Luke's hand is not chopped off. Instead, he throws his lightsaber out and cries for mercy.
In Episode VI:
Leia's gold bikini is replaced with a dress hiding everything from neck to ankles.
Includes now a shot of the Magical World of Oz, with munchkins singing "Ding, dong, the witch is gone."
Jar-jar Binks appears as a ghost beside Obi-wan, Yoda and Anakin.
