Click the link and see what starwars.com has released about locations from the OT that we'll be revisiting in Ep. III.

Hmmm....now which two could they be?

I have a pretty good idea for at least one of them.

Tatoine - Probably not, since the Lars homestead is the only location I could see them use in Episode III. Han is too young to have dealings with Jabba in Episode III.
DS I & DS II - No way
Hoth & Endor - Probably not

Yavin IV?
Alderaan?
Dagobah?
Bespin?

I would guess that Alderaan is the space location.

Total top-of-my-head guess, but I'd say that Dagobah is the strongest contender. I'd love to know how the most powerful Jedi master in the galaxy ended up as a hermit living in self-exile.

Probably not.

Read again the article. Alderaan rather fits into the planetary cathegory.
I think the space location will be Sidious' base or something like that.

Dagobah is higly logical although...

Excellent work from TFN (surprised?)

From the Episode III bit at the top.

Compare with this:

They cleverly turned them upside down and reversed them to help disguise what they are.

SPOILER:




















So it looks quite possible one of the sets being recreated (as said in the update) from the classic trilogy is the Star Destroyer bridge. Take a look at this comparison I made from that starwars.com header and the sketches from the book I scanned.

"Impressive...most impressive"

Good detective work! Does this mean that there's a respectable chance of seeing a stardestroyer (any model) in Ep. III. The eternal optimist in me says WHOOPEE!! But the realist says Naaah!

Still, a VSD in Ep. III would be a dream come true...

Since they're trying to recreate them from the OT, I doubt Alderaan is one of them. We never actually saw it in any real detail nor any of its actual locations.

Tatoine IS in Episode III, they've already got the shot they wanted for it though, in one of the Documentary things on the Episode II DVD GL tells the crew that it's a shot for EpIII and it's the only one they needed to get of Tunisia (?) and they weren't doing it when they were filming EpIII because it was stupid to bring a whole crew out there for just one shot.

I wonder if they are going to show ISD I model from ANH, or ISD II from TESB

If they are rebuilding ISD bridge, perhaps there's also chance for certain Corellian Transport

I think we'll most likely see a Victory-class, not an Imperator-class. And Dagobah is very likely to be one of the places.

Yes, but I would still like to see its surface in Ep III. It would make its destruction in Ep IV more emotionally loaded to actually see the society that was obliterated in a few seconds in ANH.

We'll see Degobah. Yoda has to flee there after the Jedi are exterminated.

This article has an interesting theory about what locations we will see in Ep3.

George just never gets tired of Tatooine, does he?

Well, it has been in every SW except for one.

The only reason we`ll get to see Tatooine again is when baby Luke is brought there to hide him.

If that would happen then that might mean we will see Alderaan when baby Leia is brought there to hide.

In her case they might do a ship to ship transfer.

They might do it on Coruscant too. Her father was a senator right?

Edit: Isn't it Jimmy Smits, since he played Bail Organa?

A note. Supposedly Alderaan was a site of a major battle during the Clone Wars. The devestation of the battle is why Alderaan outlawed weapons on planet. If Lucas sticks by this then that means we are garunteed to see Alderaan in Ep III!

Uraniun235 wrote:George just never gets tired of Tatooine, does he?

George said that he needed only one shot from Tunisia to complete his trilogy when he was filming Ep. II. In fact, he's already shot it. He told SW.com that he would not get any more things from Tunisia, because he's always hated shooting there. It's possible he has something from an interior locale on Tatooine, but I would be surprised if the sequence on Tatooine is extensive.

Since he said that the sets they're reconstructing are sets, that further rules out Tatooine (which were mostly exterior shots).

They also said that they were working with a set originally from ANH (actually, they said that the drawings were not as complete), so I would think that would indicate that at least one locale from ANH will return, and it will be in a set. That doesn't leave a lot of choices--Tantive IV, Lars Homestead, DS, Yavin IV (briefly). Of those, the starships (yes, even the DS) and the Lars Homestead are more likely. Yavin IV was a secret base that the Empire didn't know about until ANH, so unless they're doing a VERY brief shot at the end of the movie to show the Rebels building their forces (or perhaps showing us the "first victory" the Rebels scored against the evil GALACTIC EMPIRE?), that isn't really a contender.

The other one, I assume, is Dagobah. They need to show Yoda arriving on Dagobah at the end of the film. It'll be interesting to see which of the others is selected.

Yes. Bail Organa adopted Leia as his own daughter. I assume that will be in Episode III.

Maybe that'll be our mother of all spacebattles.

if you have read the thrawn triligy by timothy zahn (heir to the empire,dark force riseing , and the last command) it explaines how yoda got there. a dark jedi ran away to dagobah and yoda follwed him there and defeted him thats all it tells about it so presumably he just stayed there after killing the dark jedi.
PS that is why there is that cave that has the dark side in it the dark jedi died in there

That explains WHY he went to Dagobah, but not how or when.
