How George Lucas Wanted Padme to KILL Anakin with a Knife on Mustafar! - Star Wars Explained: In Star Wars Revenge of the Sith, George Lucas almost approved of a very alternate ending with Padme trying to kill Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar just before Obi-Wan Kenobi showed himself. I think this would have shown great character development and overall arc for Padme. by Star Wars Theory

This changes Anakin for me. I love that George added this: Something as small detailed as Anakin having long hair in Revenge of the Sith goes far beyond just looks. George Lucas wanted him to look like Qui-Gon Jinn, like the father figure he was supposed to have. I love this. It adds so much more to just Anakin whenever we see him next. by Star Wars Theory

How Qui-Gon Jinn Spoke to Yoda in Revenge of the Sith - Star Wars Explained: At the very end of Star Wars Revenge of the Sith, Master Yoda is visited by Qui-Gon Jinn during his meditation in a deleted scene that never made the final film. The scene was written in the script (can be found online) and in the novelization. The scene was later digitally inserted in the clone wars however it doesn't have the same feeling and confuses the timeline. If Yoda spoke to Qui-Gon before this, then he would have told him sooner in the films just like in the animated series. by Star Wars Theory

Attack of the Clones Bonus DVD Part 1 George Lucas: The DVD bonus discs of the first 6 films cover a extensive array of info about the films, film making process, and the actors themselves as George Lucas talks to us about his creation, Star Wars. You can't find these anymore as they are only on the DVD's from the early 2000's. In this one we'll learn about George's vision as a film maker and how he preferred digital over anything else. We'll also see some BTS of Ewan as Obi-Wan and Sam Jackson as Mace Windu. These are relics, and I'm happy to react/give my take on everything as we learn more from The Maker, himself. The beginning of the bonus discs from the Lucas Files! Attack of the Clones Part 1. I hope you enjoy it, I definitely do and can't wait to do more. by Star Wars Theory

The FAKE Return of the Jedi Script with Luke Written to Avoid Spoilers: The Making of Star Wars Return of the Jedi reveals a ton of stuff about the movie and original script. In today's episode, let's go over the fake script that was put out there when the film wasn't released yet. George Lucas instated this fake script to avoid spoilers in the audience, which of course, was way easier to avoid back then, than today. In this fake script, we get Luke Skywalker defeating Palpatine, throwing the Emperor over the railing as Vader did. We also see a different Vader when Luke unmasks him. A much more non-human Anakin Skywalker. This fake script is the most official fan-fiction we could get for the ending of Return of the Jedi. If Luke killed the Emperor, it wouldn't have closed the circle for Anakin's fulfillment of the prophecy. Anakin HAD to kill the Emperor. It was Anakin's redemption that made the story come full circle, and I'm so happy it went the way it did. by Star Wars Theory
