Will they have the Victory class Star Destroyer in the next movie? or will the used the things featured at the end of EP2? And will we see the original T.I.E starfighter? The one originally made by Republic Seinar Systems?

I hope they'll stick to the Accumulator Class a little while longer, I haven't seen enough of it. Hopefully the Victory Class will be shown as well, that indeed had begun its career in the midst of the Clone Wars.

Doubt it. Lucas hardly even mentions anything that was written in the books around this time. I dobut he'll start now. But it's always nice hope for it.

While reading Dark Force Rising, I notice that Mara Jade tells Luke that the Emperor took off Vader's right hand after the Battle of Yavin. Secondly, I noticed they always mention the Clone Wars as being somehwere around 50 years prior to Yavin, as opposed to the now-official 20-something.
*sigh* More indications as to Lucas' tampering... Yes, I know he can do whatever he wants because he has billions of dollars and created the trilogy, but I'd like to see stuff that doesn't contradict the books.

And, y'see, that's why it's not tampering. Because it's his. And if he thinks that the story works better if we actually see Anakin having his hand chopped off, then so be it.

Maybe the emperor doesn't like Anakin's clone hand and removes it in favour of a robotic one?
Another thing: What's the story about using the Force unnecessarily? When Anakin was fooling around with the Force as Amidala was preparing to leave Coruscant, he said that Obi-wan would be angry if he saw it. But when Obi-wan goes to Yoda about the map discrepancy he uses the force to take the map crystal from the holder. i.e would it be okay to use the Force to get your TV remote, but not to levitate it for amusement?

I think we are using different definitions of "clone" and "robotic" here. Unless that was a clone of Mecha Big Bird's hand...

You unintentionally raised an interesting point there, Yul Brynner.
The people of the Star Wars galaxy can clone (or grow)legions of maori buffed-ups, but not a hand (or arm)?? I mean, fark, WE aren't more than a couple of years (or decades) from total limb replacement (or regrowth).

What I meant was that this "concept" is one of the very few times where technology-sophistication in a story is lessened to reach a goal (Vader the monster).
Or rather, the techlevel before the latest point in the timeline has been heightened. Not as uncommon...
