I bet Bail Organa has a role in it -- assuming Palpatine's Jedi purge is in rapid effect by this point, Organa probably wants to keep as few people from knowing how many actual Jedi offspring are around the galaxy (since the Emperor would no doubt want to remove them). <br /><br />* The Senate won't be disbanded. Assuming we see that far into the creation of the Empire. We know that the Senate doesn't get disbanded until ANH -- "the last vestiges of the Old Republic have been swept away."<br /><br />* I hope we get to see a young Tarkin. He wields considerable power in ANH -- he has authority over Darth Vader. Why does he have such power? Who is he? Details! Details!<br /><br />* Anakin as a pilot. We've had some foreshadowing -- the pod race, flying the Naboo fighter, the Coruscant chase -- but we'll see him I'm sure as a dedicated Jedi fighter pilot during Episode III. <br /><br />* What happens to Dooku? I think he might pursue Yoda to Dagobah, and Yoda's killing of him will give the "Magic Tree" it's force "awareness." <br /><br />* Why does Darth Vader need his life-support gear? Is he Darth Vader or Anakin Skywalker when he confronts Obi-Wan over the pit of lava? Will we actually see him in the life-support gear at movie's end ... or just a sinister foreshadowing?

It would make a good part of the opening crawl and then have part of the movie revolve around the discovery that they are being targeted.<br /><br />I firmly believe that we'll see Tarkin in Ep III. He was supposedly heavily involved with the construction of the Death Star, and since we know that planning for that is already under way, I'm hoping we get a young Tarkin.<br /><br />My guess is that Palpatine will be declared Emperor by the end of the movie having wrapped up the Clone Wars and coming off rather well. It wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for Ep III to end without Palpatine being Emperor and then Ep IV to start with "The Emperor" being mentioned.<br /><br />I think we'll see some kind of climactic battle with Anakin and Obi Wan after it is revealed that Anakin has had a hand in killing some Jedi. Whatever happens, it will lead to Anakin being badly injured.<br /><br />I think the movie will end with Padme having given birth, Leia being placed with Organa, and Yoda and Obi Wan heading for Dagobah with Luke to drop Yoda off before going to Tatooine. This might explain why Luke seems to think Dagobah is familiar in "Empire". There may be an incedent where Anakin believes his pregnant wife has been killed...something arranged by Obi Wan and Organa so Anakin won't know he has kids. The only reason I say this is because I don't know how in the world they're going to have Padme far enough along that she can give birth during the movie and not have Anakin know about it.<br /><br />I have this image of the last scene of the movie being with the newly installed Emperor Palpatine speaking with an Imperial official (perhaps Tarkin) and saying something like "I'd like to introduce you to my apprentice, Darth Vader." A door opens, Vader turns around in full life support gear which we're seeing for the first time, and James Earl Jones says, "What is thy bidding, my master?" Roll end credits.<br /><br />Let me be clear...I'm not basing this on anything. This is just me theorizing.<br /> <br /> <small>[ May 21, 2002, 05:46: Message edited by: Aban Rune ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Vice-Admiral Michael T.
