Re: OT - Star Wars Ep III
I thought Obi-Wan's response to Anakin's (really it's Vader) demise was brutal. Just watching the man you loved like a brother just get consumed by flames and not do a thing to stop it, and actually walking away without a backward glance, was almost as bad as some of the things Anakin did when he turned. As Renegade13 stated, this was a very dark movie. I don't know how old he is, but I remember going to see The Empire Strikes Back. That was a dark movie also, but not to the scale of Ep. III.
I had a horrible thought today while I was reading the Cestus Deception. We know Lucas likes to tinker with his movies. What if in a couple of years, he releases the new revised special edition of SW:IV A New Hope? I was thinking of some of the continuity errors that still exists when Luke meets Obi-Was in the desert. Things like how Obi-Wan didn't go by his original name since before Luke was born. Little things like that. What if he digitalizes the movie to where he corrects some of those errors? Can you imagine someone else's voice being used for Obi-wan. Or God forbid, he recasts Ewan McGregor to play the older Obi-Wan so the voices more closely match. BRRRRR!!! I shudder at the thought.
