Here's the linky: http://starwars.com/community/news/2003 ... 105_1.html

Check out his lightsabre, it is strikingly similar to the one he later gives to Luke. It's about time they gave him a sabre that even resembles the old trilogy versions!

On a side note, how often do Jedi lose their sabres, I mean come on

They are on the frontlines, not that strange that they'll lose a saber now and then.

All the more to look like the late Alec Guiness.

That's his lightsabre from A New Hope- Luke's lightsabre in Return of the Jedi also bears similarity to it. The lightsbare he gives Luke in a New Hope looks like Anakin/Vaders- because it used to belong to him, of course.

Well, he lost his prequel sabre in Attack of the Clones- I suspect he'll have this new sabre from the very start of Revenge of the Sith (please oh please oh please let that be the name).

He lost his prequel sabre in TPM, remember? Maul kicking down the abyss in Theed palace.

Yeah, and he either must've retrieved it somehow, or built a replica. Regardless, I highly doubt they'll devote precious screen time to showing the specifics of why he's using his OT sabre- he clearly though it was time for a change

I like the haircut. Very formalish.

Well, I think it's about time Star Wars get some nudity beyond Slave-Leia. I'd rather see Natalie Portman naked than Ewan McGregor though...

That would be incredibly dumb and spoil the way the PT is a mirror of the OT. It's all about the Skywalkers rise and fall.

Actually he has. I haven't seen the movie in question but he has.

One of the movies in question is called Velvet Goldmine.

And Pillow Book.

and Trainspotting.

In fact McGregor is notorious for having a nude scene in nearly all of his films. In recent years of course he has become popular so his last films havent had anything IIRC but prior to Star Wars he was even worse than Kevin Bacon!

If you mean Ep. III, "Rise Of The Empire".

Lucas hasn't named the third movie yet. I like the ring that "Rise of The Empire" has to it, though.

On the contrary, I saw a sort of "teaser poster" picture on a movies website. It was in a blueish text with "Rise Of The Empire" under it. I'll try to track it down now.

people have been calling the prequels "rise of the empire" since 1998. Again, fan wankery. Theres a thousand fan-made posters on the net, half of them containg the title "rise of the empire" (or something similar, like "darkness rises" or "return of the sith").

I've not seen any "posters" for a "Darkness Rises" or "Return Of The Sith" title yet, I have seen a "Revenge Of The Sith" suggested with no image though. However, as I said, this "poster" image was on one of the movie sites like IMDB (but obviously not IMDB or I'd remember it), I don't think it was fan-made.
