OMG: The Revenge of the Sith

I have not seen the revised Episode IV, but I do seem to remember that in the original one, Han shoots first and the other guy was not pointing a weapon or anything, just talking.

I think C3PO will at least have his memory wiped since he can't keep his mouth shut. R2D2 might as well, but I think maybe not. He can't talk normally but I get the impression he is much more in the know than C3PO. He knows all this stuff but keeps his mouth shut. As for Han shooting first, of course he did. Han didn't become a succesful smuggler by sticking to the rules. Greedo said he was going to either kill Han or take him to Jabba (who isn't exactly happy with him) so Han does whats necessary. If he had known Greedo would be the one to find him he would have hidden in the shadows and shot Greedo in the back when he wasn't looking. You can be the loveable rogue without being a goody two shoes

One thing I don't understand from episodes I and II is, if Senator Palpatine is the Sith Lord, why don't the Jedi sense the dark side in him? I assumed that Palpatine is able to hide his power somehow.

Or maybe there's some sort of trick where Palpatine is actually not Darth Sidius, but a clone?

Also, the rule about only two Siths existing at one time doesn't sound like such a good idea. There's a master and an apprentice, and that's it? So the master has to die before the apprentice can call himself the new master and take on a new apprentice.

Actually I think the "tradition" works more like the apprentice killing the master off (or vice versa..) then getting a new apprentice.

What happened to Grand Moff Tarkin? In Star Wars he was the Emperors top military commander and in charge of the Death Star. No mention of him in PM, or AOTC, and I doubt he will be in ROTS.

This leaves a bit whole for which Lucas should fall in and drown.

Why did Obi-Wan and Yoda disappear when they died in episodes IV and VI, but none of the Jedi who died in episodes I and II disappeared?

If I were a Sith master, I would never get an apprentice! It would just be too dangerous!

Tarkin is indeed in ROTS, this is a fact as there are pictures of the actor wearing makeup to make him look exactly as a young Tarkin (its on Hyperspace though so I havn't seen it myself, but it exists). He's a Republic navy officer who will get in the Emperors good books.
