Back to page four Preparing for battle in TPM and ANH. 1.14 MB MPEG There's lots of space battling and lightsaber fighting going on for pretty much the rest of the movies, of course. Too obvious, obviously all completely intentional, and too much of it to bother putting any pictures up, really. Luke destroys the Death Star and Vader kills Palpatine at just about the same time. Sorry I couldn't get rid of ESB in the middle in this clip, try to ignore it. 1.14 MB MPEG The very similar scenes of the big spaceships getting blown up in TPM and ROTJ happen pretty close to each other. Anakin and Lando flying away from the big explosion they just caused. Explosions chasing battle droids and the Millenium Falcon in very similar shots at the same time. Kaboom. A very nice reversal here. Like a palindrome, sort of. Anakin starts burning up in ROTS just as his mask is finally removed in ROTJ. Anakin is put into the Darth Vader suit in ROTS, and cremated in ROTJ. TPM: "Grave danger I fear in his training." AOTC: "I am a slow learner." ROTS: teh mask TPM: "Always two there are, a master and an apprentice." ROTS: And there they are. Darth Sidious's apprentice goes to see him. Sunsets. And then AOTC is left to finish by itself. To end with, a comparison of the lengths of the movies: Movie Length without credits Length with credits TPM 2:09:53 2:16:12 AOTC 2:15:56 2:22:29 ROTS 2:13:46 2:20:06 ANH 2:00:16 2:04:45 ESB 2:01:58 2:07:22 ROTJ 2:07:57 2:14:48 So I've covered the whole thing now. Occasional updates, if there are any, will be on PAGE SIX
