I bet...

It would be very long and tedious (definately thrilling and filling to the devout SW fans though) to show the death of 10,000 Jedi onscreen, so my humbled guess is that in the opening intro story, we will be informed of the deaths of thousands of Jedi so far in the clone wars. What I'm saying is most of them will be implied, not shown. A few like Obi Wan, Yoda, Mace, Plo, Ki Adi Mundi, etc, will have survived, and maybe we'll see a few of them in action.
Just my random ideas, what do you think?

 

Agreed, but probably not most of them. I think the final destruction of the Jedi Order will be shown in EPIII, after a trap or trick from the Sith. Something this important to the Star Wars history is not simply put in yellow letters...

 

Well, I know the EU has no bearing what happens in the movies, but I always thought that in Episode III, that Padme would raise an army against Vader/Anakin. The reason I feel this way is that in The Phantom Menace novelization, little Anakin has a dream, and in the dream he sees exactly that - Padme leading an army against him.

 

wow - i forgot about the dream sequence!!!

that could be huge!
nice job marajade fan!!!!1

 

While that could happen, it could easily turn out like the ROTJ novel - explains a lot of stuff that doesn't happen in the films. But you may be right.

The Jedi are only beginning to be wiped out during the Clone Wars. It'll very likely take the whole twenty years between Episode III and ANH for Darth Vader and the Emperor to totally eradicate the order, save Obi-Wan and Yoda.

 

I think the clone army will have a hand in the jedi's extinction. Granted they have limited abilities, but they are vast in number.

For some reason, I would love to see Stormtroopers( not clones) Storm the halls of the jedi temple, and we see Darth Vader in costume for the first time leading them on.

I'd love that. I get that feeling when I watch the ending battle in LOTR.

 

little Anakin has a dream, and in the dream he sees exactly that - Padme leading an army against him.
actually, the book only says that he sees padme at the head of a large army, not necessarily against him.
my $ 0.02.

 

Actually, the Jedi Purge takes place in the 18 years between Episode 3 and 4.

 

doh!!!

I have that feeling as well. Won't it suck for veiwers to watch ep. 3 with a plethera of jedi, and then *POOF* they're all gone by ep. 4?

 

That is a bummer, MusicJedi.

 

I know it! Man....I really want to see Vader cut a path. I don't know why. I guess I just want Lucas to give us a taste of vengence in the darkside. Give us a truly dark episode as he has said he wanted to do.

 

A bunch probably die when the temple is destroyed

 

I though the emporer makes that his palace or something in the Timmohty Zhan trilogy?

 

Yeah i think a few jedi other than those two whos name i dont feel like spelling will survive and then in episode 4 when that guy whos name i dont feel like spelling tells luke that the jedi died then it will b a sadder moment (for those who havent seen the originals yet) just my crazy and possibly hate prevoking thought

 

The reason I feel this way is that in The Phantom Menace novelization, little Anakin has a dream, and in the dream he sees exactly that - Padme leading an army against him.

I haven't read the novelization for TPM, but I do have an interesting thought about this "dream sequence".

What if in his dream, little Ani is actually seeing into the future and not seeing who he thinks to be Padme, but actually his daughter Leia, who incidently *does* lead an army against him in the OT?
