Luckily it will never happen. Because it's fucking stupid.

Nice insight Stravo...would add dimensions to Obi Wan's failure.
As for Mace's death...hopefully it'll be good...and honestly having him killed by Boba would be funny in a bad way unless Boba took growth hormones and is a full fledged adult and basically shoot Mace with the Slave-1, other than that I can't see it.

It's just not on in any way shape or form.
- Getting killed by a little kind in a ship is going out like a punk
- Getting killed by a little kid in hand to hand combat is UBER going out like a little BITCH- no matter how many respectable enemies he dealt with beforehand
- Getting killed by a little kid who's taken growth hormones or whatever is just a silly idea- as if George Lucas is going to take time out in his last Star Wars script to explain that an insignificant charachter of no integral worth to the story whatsoever has taken growth hormones etc.

As I should've said I still can't see it.
I have problems why Lucas is trying to overhype Boba Love.
I mean the way I want Mace to go out is either fighting god knows how many clones or a true knock down drag out fight with either Anakin or Dooku....though sadly I will not get either.

In all liklihood Darth Vader will kill Mace (before he gets in the suit most likely).
Though Dooku killing him is also a possibility, I see Dooku going down at the hands of Anakin as a definite.

Yeah, that is heavily alluded in RoTJ with Luke basically forced to kill Vader.
As for one other minor notion...do you think he'll be looking like, facially...will it be maniacal, pride or anger that will be shown as he does these things?

He'll be in a Luke-esque rage most likely- maybe they'll even use a variation of the music
*fingers crossed- best scene in ROTJ when Luke goes psycho*

Interesting note about Obi-Wan Kenobi
He had a case filled with hundreds of Jedi lightsabers. It would be neat to see where they came from. Anakin's lightsaber was in that box so the box must mean something about the fall of the Jedi and the Fight with Anakin. Also alot of the Jedi where killed by Vader after his fight with Obi-Wan.

Hundreds? That must have been a huge box. Was it that chest in ANH or something else?

Yes, it was the big chest in ANH

I don't remember seeing hundreds of Jedi lightsabres

No, the camera never shows us what was in the chest but in Shadows of the Empire Luke gets a book about how to make a lightsaber out of it and notes the lightsabers.

I think they are also mentioned in the RofTJ Novelization

I've read the novelization (albeit a very long time ago)- I don't recall that. It wasn't mentioned in the radio drama I don't think.

Actually the novelization doesn't actualy say a book persay it says that he's constructing the saber, and says how it's in disarray, mostly because it's being made.
For the most part I think SoTE is where they say that Ben had more than one saber persay.

I still wanna know why Obi-Wan rebuilt his Episode 1 light sabre for episode 2, rather than going to his Episode IV one.

I say Anakin broke it

.
As for not going to Ep 4 ...bad editing

What I really don't understand is that almost everyone thinks that Episode III will continue just from the end of Episode II...
I think Episode III's flowing text will start like this:
Ten years have passed since the treachorous ex-Jedi, Count Dooku has managed to provoke a war on the Republic...
...or something like that.
Dudes it's a huge galaxy, a large scale war can go on for decades.
So maybe Boba Fett will be around 20 years old...
Obi-van will be more wiser and maybe member of the council, to replace the master that Jango shoot down while he was defending Dooku. (Do you remember that scene?)
Otherwise I doubt that the council should send a "simple" master to turn back the "chosen one" from the dark path...
One thing is for sure, Obi-van must be "promoted" to general...
As for Mace's death...I don't know...
He will die valiantly, but I think Palpy will strike him down!!!
We never seen Palpy's true power, so I think it's time for Lucas to show the "ultimate evil", who can keep even Vader on short leash.
Palpy will kick the shit out of Mace...Bwuhahaha

The reason why everyone says Boba will be too young is because only 3 years pass in between Episode II and III, i.e. the Clone War lasts 3 years, with the final battle taking place at the beginning of Episode III most likely (big ass space battle! please big ass space battle).
Plus, even if Boba was 21, it'd still be stupid.

Ok, but where was it mentioned that it will last only 3 years?
I mean the Clone wars.
