	here is the latest chat with RM • Ian McDiarmid (Palpatine) has a much larger and important role in Episode III (for obvious reasons). • Rick has been trying to convince George to do a cameo in the prequels but George refuses. • The emphasis of Ep3 is as much story as Visual FX. • Ep3 will have the same emotional depth as ESB. • Visually, Ep3 is the most ambitious film yet due to all the number of new planets. • The film will end on a sad note, but there is hope for the future of the story (Classic Trilogy). • Rick can neither confirm nor deny whether the character Tarkin will be in Ep3. • Three major lightsaber duels have been shot so far. • The underwater tank set will feature a scene where Obi-Wan fights with droids. • Rick asks that the fans have faith in the decision to go with the CGI trooper suits as opposed to actual costumes. • George is always making changes (likely to include the script to Ep3). • Rick's favorite film of the saga is Episode V. • Rick realizes the fan anticipation for this final film in the SW saga. • When asked if he had a favorite character in Ep3, Rick stated that he thought Palpatine was fantastic. • Three words that Darth Vader speaks in Ep3 are "I don't fear..." !! • The movie will explain all of Anakin's injuries except for one (the facial scar as noted in the recent HS set diary). • Currently, production is two days ahead of schedule, but the underwater scenes (with the water tank) are quite challenging. • Ep3 will provide the answers the fans have been waiting for, but may also pose some new questions. • The opening battle is entirely in space, but there will be land battles in the film. • Only small segments of the duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan have been filmed. The main action is yet to come. • September 19th will be Hayden's last day of filming. • Rick and/or George have never changed a scene for musical scoring purposes. • Kamino is not in Episode III. • Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca) will film his scenes in March of 2004. • The underwater scenes are not a battle, but a fight. • Count Dooku will only use one lightsaber in Ep3. • One character in the film will use two lightsabers at once "and he's bad." • A certain amount of Jedi will die in Ep3, but Rick would not specify how many. • There will be a scene when Anakin is given the name of Darth Vader and an explanation as to why he was given the name and what it means. • Rick refused to comment on the possibility of a volcanic environment or planet. • We will see Mace in a certain form of "space action". • Rick would not give any hints on the EU character that appears in the film. • All the hairstyles are bad in Ep3, which will link the film to the Classic Trilogy. • It won't be the special effects that make the Obi-Wan/Anakin duel so thrilling, it will be the betrayal. • Joel Edgerton (Owen Lars) will shoot one day's work of shooting in 2004. • We will definitely see Palpatine/Sidious use an "awesome display of the dark side of the force". • Beru Whitesun (Bonnie Piesse) will appear in the film along with Owen. • Rick felt saddened, shocked, angry and betrayed after reading the story of Anakin's downfall. • Chewbacca will be easily identified during his scenes and character depth will be added to the classic trilogy Chewbacca. • The originally planned six sets of alien armor have been reduced to one set. • The one character that will make the best action figure is the one character Rick is not allowed to discuss. • Dave Prowse will not be playing Darth Vader. • Many people believe the reason Anakin turns to the dark side is a love triangle between Anakin, Padmé and Obi-Wan. • John Williams will begin scoring the film in November of 2004. • The last ten minutes of the film will be "a dream come true" for all fans. ... • Until a final cut of the film is ready, it is too early to predict how the score may blend in with some of the Classic Trilogy musical themes. • Rick didn't confirm or deny that a major character in the film, other than Boba Fett, is a clone. • The story will move much quicker than the previous films. • About 80 pages of script have been shot so far. • "Birth of an Empire" is not even close to the real title of the film. • Currently, the script is 129 pages long. • Ewan McGregor may do a webchat in a few weeks. • Rick's favorite set to shoot for this film was the Classic Trilogy set. • Jar-Jar does not die in the film. • The animatics that Rick has seen for the film are "brilliant". • Ep3 will conclusively answer whether Palpatine is Sidious. • Kit Fisto will not use a double-bladed lightsaber. • The "rule of two" (Sith at once) remains true in Ep3. • There is still one big role that has yet to be cast. • Padmé is a Senator throughout Ep3. • Dormé will not return for Ep3. • Ep3 is a "2-hour turn to the dark side". • Boss Nass will not appear in Ep3. • At the end of the movie, the twins Luke and Leia are less than a month old. • We will see Padmé pregnant in the film. • Anakin will have scenes named "ceiling of a flooded room". • We will see female Jedi fighting in Ep3. • We will see who was born first, Luke or Leia. • We will see Yoda fighting again.

	I just get goosebumps whenever I hear that McCallum is doing an online chat. He is the uber-spoiler. And if what he tells us is only the teaser stuff and not the real good stuff as he claims, well ... shudders -----signature----- . "Difficult we did yesterday.

	"They are building the set for the Millenium Falcon. Full exterior, and possibly interior. " Well that would fit with the OT sets they said they'd be building (one of which was the bridge of a Star Destroyer/Republic Cruiser and the other being the Blockade Runner from the start of ANH). Not really sure how it would fit into the story though. -----signature----- http://www.millenniumfalcon.com OMG I LUB U

	I dunno. I think bringing the Falcon in would be just going a bit too far with OT tie-ins. Bringing Chewie in is one thing, but I really can't see how bringing the Falcon into the PT wouldn't just be too much of a stretch ... -----signature----- . "Difficult we did yesterday.

	I'm not sure about Padme and Obi-Wan using the Falcon but Peter Mayhew let slip awhile back that Chewbacca would be delivering Luke to Obi-Wan Kenobi at some point in Ep3. That's not to say that Chewie will be piloting the Falcon though because the OT establishes that Han Solo won the ship from Lando Calrissian in a card game, both of whom would be very young at the time of Ep3. Wookiee's working with the Jedi would certainly give a new angle to Obi-Wan's fateful meeting with Chewbacca in the Mos Eisley cantina in ANH and being able to converse freely with Chewie as well -----signature----- I wish it was the sixties. I wish we could be happy. I wish that something would happen.

	summary of the latest set diary which will from now be known as....THE.BEST.SET.DIARY.EVER.PERIOD. Concentrated Action September 02, 2003 The Duel covers a range of emotions as well as locations. Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor are enjoying the chance to show off their lightsaber skills. But it's all business when the cameras roll. The actors maintain their intensity while getting hit with heavy wind machines and jets of "steam." While the fight is intense, "there are moments when words cut as deeply as lightsabers." atmospheric devices drown out almost every other sound on set. On Monday Ewan asked to clear the set of any unnecessary crew in order to allow them to fully concentrate on this important scene. Pablo takes this time to explain that there are no attempts to hide certain scenes from any of the crew or the webcam. Some very heavy scenes have been shot in full view of the whole crew with no extra security. The last few scenes to be shot in March won't contain any huge revelations either. Even Lucas asked about the webcam on Monday's pivotal shoot. One of these scenes, with an intricately patterned mechanical floor, had the biggest crowd assembled on the shoot so far. There were jokes about selling tickets and several whistling the Imperial March. On Monday, September 1, at 5:48 p.m., an unmistakable and iconic dark form was captured on HD. After the first mesmerizing take, everyone applauded. Pablo believes this scene will be the one fans get goosebumps over. may be wrapping even earlier than originally estimated. there are only 11 shoot days remaining, and therefore 11 Set Diaries left. -----signature----- Lurker since may 99 Member since mar 02 \|-o-\| <-o-> \|-o-\| Winner of the Scifi3D Modelling Comp Member of the Pixel Corps

	I think that this means we will see OT Vader and not some pre OT version.

	I have a feeling that it will be both over the course of the film, ending in Vader with suit, armour and helmet/mask. I'm fairly sure Anakin will take the name Darth Vader before he gets the armour (cinsidering that McCallum said we'd see a scene explaining the reason behind the name) -----signature----- http://www.millenniumfalcon.com OMG I LUB U

	I agree DA, but there are alot of people, especially on the 3SA boards that think that we wont even see the OT Vader, only something that is like a "prototype suit" or without mask. I think it has been stated by Rick Mcallum that Anakin will be Vader about mid way throught the film (as in evil) but not in the suit until approx last 10 mins.

	Well I thought for awhile that we'd see a regressed, clunky version of the Vader suit in the final frames of Ep3 as well but now I'm not so sure. I was basing the assumption off the suit that Wat Tambor uses in AotC....I can definately see echoes of Vader in that. Plus I read ages back that James Earl Jones had been snapped up for ADR work for Ep3. So we get the Vader voice but not the Vader suit? They're one and the same, surely, each affects the other and it's not like Vader can pop off a piece of the suit and make a quick upgrade to it or anything But the simple fact is that Vader doesn't need the suit until the end of the film so I doubt we're going to see 2 different versions of the it. My bet is that we'll get the original Vader suit/helmet so that it matches up to the OT properly if for no other reason. Edit: And there was some false production art floating around for awhile too, of Vader in a similar suit with the triangular mouth piece of the helmet but nothing else on his charred head. He also had 2 lightsabers but as I said, it turned out to be fan art (pretty good though). I think it was in with the stuff that started at AICN about 3 weeks ago when they were having their little spoiler binges. -----signature----- http://www.millenniumfalcon.com OMG I LUB U
