What happened to Naboo,Corusant etc

I saw ROTS opening night at midnight IMO it is the best of the series but it left me with alot of questions...In the PT the planets naboo and corusant were important planets...my question is in the OT their is no reference to them or they never even go to those planets i just wanna no why r they taken out of the picture in the OT

 

NOT NECESSARY

 

Coruscant is shown in the Special Edition celibration sceens.

wouln't of thought the Rebel Alliance would of ventured anywhere near Coruscant, I'd imagine it would of had it's fair share of Imperials on it !! (same could be said of Naboo)

 

googd thinking spike

 

All I know is that Corusant became the Imperial home base after Episode III. It then became the planet called 'Imperial City'. If you read the Expanded Universe books or even look it up on the internet it does tell you that the Empire owns that planet.

As for Naboo either A)Lucas couldnt explanied what happenend to it after Episode III and decided to screw it. or B) Maybe the Empire destroyed it or took over it again and calls it by another name. Try looking around the net and see if anything comes up about it.

 

Naboo and Corusant were added in ROTJ celebration scene.....u can hear Jar Jar's saying wese Free during the celebration.

 

Coruscant is now part of the ending of Return of the Jedi. It is the capital of the galactic empire and the home of Emperor Palpatine during the original films. The trilogy is focused on the rebellion which has been pushed to the remote worlds of the outer rim. For that reason, the story never takes us to the capital.

Naboo is just a planet in the galaxy. With Padme no longer a character in the story, it would be useless to travel to this planet. It is no longer central to the story. Though it is also seen at the end of Return of the Jedi.

Edit: Both planets are left as usual and are seen at the end of the film. Life goes on, the story just moves off of them.

Hey, your the n00b. Don't talk to people like that, your not in the position to do so.

 

what esxactly do u mean more than a friend

 

Thank you Jello, that is a bit of interesting EU information. It makes perfect sense anyway when considering Palpatine tactics.

Though I find it hard to imagine him being "more than friends" with anyone, especially with that deformed face . Though I guess she would be attracted to the power.

Well, Iceheart apparently was as well, assuming you buy the EU... (Ysane Isard, head of Imperial Intelligence, for those who don't read the EU). And she was attracted not to Palaptine himself but the power he held. What power-hungry dictator-wannabe wouldn't?

<<<<<stupid noob the ot was made before the prquels and george hadnot thought thoses planets up>>>>>

Oh, the irony!

 

It was not possible to show Coruscant in the Original Trilogy because of the lack of advanced CGI. Also, the story wouldn't necessarily take us there.

Would have been nice if Lucas added a scene on Coruscant in the OT:SE, with the Emperor in a grand imperial building, barking his orders to Vader.

 

McQuarrie's work however was not wasted. It seems all of his Coruscant stuff was sent to the prequel trilogy animators who used all the concept paintings as a basis for their work. It also seems that some of Ralph's paintings of Bespin went on to influence the creation of Kamino.

He was truly the best artist to get involved with Star Wars. Doug and the other PT artists don't compare.

Even the grassy fields from Alderaan that were drawn for the original films was used for the creation of Naboo.

It is interesting how the old art shaped the new trilogy. Kevin J. Anderson's book about the Art of Star Wars is a good source for the paintings which are coming into my mind.

Originally Lucas wanted to use that concept for Mos Espa in Menace. For finanical/technological reasons, he decided against it. I was glad to see the idea used. But yes, that was also in the original Alderaan plans. Also in those plans were the city spires idea which has now also been used.

Lucas always places ideas on that proverbial shelf. He allows them to collect dust and when the time is ripe, they are used.

thanx for clearing that up i havent seen the special edition ROTJ in along time gotta check it out and see the end celebration.

 

I'm kinda glad we don't see those Planets in the OT. Well, maybe it'd be nice to see Coruscant but there's really no reason to revisit Naboo.

But I totally accept the idea that the rebellion wouldn't go near Coruscant.

I am, however, a fan of including both planets in the end of ROTJ.

 

I remember seeing Coruscant in the SE ROTJ ending, but not Naboo.. then again ive got the video, maybe its on the dvd.

I allways used to think when i saw TPM that Naboo would become Alderaan.. but gave up on that little theory a long time ago
