Saga Rise of the Empire--Part 1 of 4

Things to remember when reading this plot outline:
--What the hell is this High Ground bull **** all about?!?! If it is over because Kenobi has the high ground, what the hell did Maul have at the end of Episode I. That looks like the ultimate high ground! He is also staring straight at Kenobi with his lightsaber extended!!! Crappy way to end that fight, and kill off a great bad guy!
--Count Dooku is NOT a Sith Lord in this story, he is one of the Lost 20--one of the Jedi who left the order-- because he didn't agree with the way the Jedi were being used in the Republic's Government. Felt that the Jedi shouldn't be defending a corrupt government.
--General Grievous is GONE!!! The idea of a droid being able to kill Jedi who could simply use the force to crush him makes NO sense. HE'S A FREAKIN' DROID PEOPLE...an alien with no Force powers=crappy bad guy period--Therefore, we stuck to the cyborg droid theory but with a force using twist.
--Yea there is a lot of technical crap we left out but this IS NOT a script, just an outline of plot points used to tell a variation of Episode 3.
Things we wanted to address/change:
--Tell the story!! Take some notes from Lord of the Rings, don't worry so much on the movie being too long...when you cut all the scenes that were used for character development to save time you miss out on really getting close to the characters. The fans don't care if the movie is 3 hours long. Guess what? We are not editors at heart. WE'RE FANS! We are not going to chop up our story, like Jeffery Dahmer would
--Turning your back on a lifetime of training and turning to the dark side to save your wife... then KILLING HER makes ZERO sense.
--"Vader helped the Emperor hunt down and destroy the Jedi Knights." That sounded cool...except the detail of it being a Padawan day care he slaughtered. Why not have him do that.
--A Jedi can feel the subtle changes in someone's emotions like fear or anger but not sense a plot involving hundreds of thousands of clones? And yes, Jedi sensed droids attacking them throughout the new trilogy...are you telling me that they wouldn't have sensed ANYTHING from Order 66? People say that the clones were "just following orders " and that "there was no malice in their actions"...does a droid just follow orders...does a droid have malice?
--Why didn't Obi Wan and Yoda just team up against Sidious?? Obi Wan is strong enough to take down the "Chosen One" but not Sidious who fights Yoda to a draw? Maybe Kenobi could have helped.
--Obi Wan gets completely punked by Dooku twice...Anakin smokes Dooku in "Sith"...Obi Wan beats Anakin---will someone give Kenobi his due! The guy beats Maul as a Padawan then looks inept except when he fights the "Chosen One" or some droids-and yes that includes tin man Grievous.
--Why the hell didn't Anakin and Windu battle?!?
--And Ventress is DEAD!!! Don't even ask!
--Wanna buy some Death Sticks??...why the Hell not?
--That's cool that Lucas put himself in the movie...we'll put him in ours...only so we can kill him. Don't get us wrong, we like Lucas and think that for the most part things are good with the trilogies...the way things are put together is fine but the way the fights and things are half assed to simply wrap things up for time is just a HUGE LETDOWN!!

-Part I

-At the start of the Clone Wars, Anakin witnesses Jedi Master Coleman Trebor and the weakness of the Jedi Order when Trebor doesn't kill Dooku and thus doesn't stop the War before it began. This sows the seeds for his loss of faith in the Jedi Order and his eventual move to the Sith.

-Throughout the Clone Wars, Anakin's frustrations grow. He suggests more aggressive tactics for the Jedi, to take the "Head" of the serpent instead of sacrificing thousands of innocents and hundreds of Jedi on the "Body". The Council (outside of Obi Wan) feels Anakin to be a Maverick...much like Qui Gon...but have enormous faith because of his great abilities. Obi Wan encourages and gets Anakin on the Council. He and Anakin begin further military strategies whi
