The "twist" in ep. III

Kintaro · Post by **Kintaro** » 2003-04-05 01:39am

I am sure many of you have heard about Lucas's "twist" he has in store for us in part 3. I hope it is not something obvious, like Palpatine being Sidious (EVERYONE knows that). It better not be lame either, like Palpatine not being Sidious, or Palpatine being Anakin's father. What do you guys think?

I'm afraid it might be that Sidious is the same person as Palpatine, although everyone knows that.

It could also be that Anakin might be the clone of an ancient Sith Lord.

(insert commentary linking alien abductions to the Kaminoans)

From what I heard the twist is that Anakin actualy kills Padme

Or it could be the fact that Boba kills Windu (one can only hope)

Only if you're an idiot.

Hey Boba could come in with Slave 1 although I guess that would be anticlimatic

That'd still be a 15 year old punk killing a ~40-50 year old Jedi Master.

Stop thinking with your penis for a minute and you'll see how rediculous and pathetic it is.

15 years old? You mean episode III is five years from AOTC?

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2003-04-05 04:23am

3-5 years. Fett will be only 13 or 15 years old.

FettKyle · Post by **FettKyle** » 2003-04-05 04:26am

Shit I did not know that. I assumed it would be 8-10 years. Oh well

what I heard was the clone war lasted about that time.

Now that would be interesting. Worthy of a new GDSA entry?

It may be that Sidious is a clone of Emperor Palpatine.

Jedi are hardly all-powerful. At a lucky moment, Boba could take the advantage.

Mace is supposed to be the second-best Jedi in the Order. I doubt he would be taken out by a punk kid and have that be as bad-ass as the way Sam Jackson wants the character to go out.

If Boba did win, it would still be a lucky and crappy way.

We want a battle of skills.

"Lucky and crappy?" Yes, but that's the way it is, some of the time.

Sam L Jackson made it clear that he wouldn't go out like a punk. A Jedi Master getting killed by a 15 year old kid is the very defintion of going out like a punk. It's not going to happen.

Lucky and crappy makes for a poor scene. His rep should not begin as a 13 year old getting lucky..and for his track record, having such a beginning makes him seem that all he's been with a couple exceptions.

The twist? hopefully it depeicts Thrawn Destroying the Outbound Flight project.....

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2003-04-05 05:03pm

No!! No Thrawn in Episode III!!!!

Axis Kast · Post by **Axis Kast** » 2003-04-05 05:26pm

I’d much better love a scene in which Boba Fett somehow kills Mace during a moment of weakness than a lightsaber battle. I find such affairs boring. The duel between Yoda and Dooku was the worst part of Episode II outside the love story. Although Darth Maul was cool, his death was certainly eclipsed by the Battle of Naboo.

The best option would be for Mace to die while fighting. Boba shoots an area-effect weapon or something that Mace can’t quite react to in time. Perhaps another Jedi – Dooku or Anakin himself – might interfere to ensure the kill?

Is your brain defective or something?

How can you say the duel between Yoda and Dooku was boring dammit man it kick ass.

It's because he's a mental defect.

The Yoda/Dooku battle was IMHO too short, but it was cool.

Yeah, wouldn't want to have one of the most popular characters ever be in a movie. Heaven forbid.

Well, Boba could just drop a seismic charge in his general vicinity. He can pilot Slave I and work its weapon systems.

The other (more far-fetched) possibility is that Boba goes back to Kamino and demands that the cloners accelerate his growth so he isn't a punk kid.
