What was that thing Padmae was wearing as a necklace? It looked like an aliens face. From the scene when Anakin wakes up from his nightmare.

Also, when General Grevious is getting away in the escape pod, it looks like he his heading towards a Federation Battleship with a blue "Empire" symbol painted on it.

The Order 66 sequence with the executions of the various Jedi's intercut across the galaxy was reminescent of the Godfather films directed by Francis Ford Coppola.

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed this or not, but it was a funny bit of humor:

C3PO says "I think I'm finally getting a hang of this flying business." (or something of that sort)

In ANH, he says "I forgot how much I hate flying"...

I dunno, i thought it was interesting, with the whole foreshadowing of the memory wipe and all haha

Not a Star Wars-related easter egg, but it was nice to hear a Wilhelm scream towards the beginning of the film. It's been used too often lately, though, it's not an in-joke anymore. sad

> hmm, imdb says Bulloch also played an imperial officer on ESB. I'll have to watch out for him.

Yes, he is in the scene when Solo is transported to Fett's ship .. he grabs Leia when Luke shoots at the troopers

> What was that thing Padmae was wearing as a necklace? It looked like an aliens face. From the scene when Anakin wakes up from his nightmare.

It's the carving Anakin gave her in TPM wink


Wow, now I need to see RotS again and again - all those eggs ... I saw the MF too, told it to my buddy *g*

I also saw the Star Wars logo at the beginning of the film along with an opening crawl and the same theme music used in the other 5 films. Watch out for it! tongue

No not that thing Anakin gave her. I ment the alien face looking thing she has on her nightgown/necklace.

jf26028,
You are wrong. Luke is playing with a t-16 skyhopper.

2 things struck me:

Grievious swirling his blades reminded me of "The Black Hole" when the Robot Maximillian kills someone ...

and when Anakin laid on the lava shore - he kind of crawls like the Terminator wink

Oh well, the Tarzan cry was in RotJ too ...

When Obi-Wan and Grievous are side-by-side during the chase, Obi-Wan plunges the bodyguard's weapon into the wheel of Grievous' bike, and the sound effect used is that of the machine gun fire hitting the giant gong at the beginning of "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom."

When the factory on Mustfar is starting to fall apart (I think just after they hit the controls)

The sound is the same as when the deathstar has been shot in rotj

(when luke is talking to vader with helmet off)

Did everyone see Jon Knoll in the opera scene. He's in the box next to Palpatine. From the Palpatine angle with Anakin in the foreground you can see him talking to a woman. She's probably somebody as well, maybe Trisha Biggar but I couldn't tell.

Everyone see George as well in the same scene just as Anakin races up the stairs and in to Palpatine's box he's stood on the left nodding his head with his daughter ! I couldn't help but go there he is there he is !

When Obi-Wan climbs out of the water on Utapau, there's a shot of a probe droid floating by looking for him. The sound effect is the same that's used for the probot in V.
