Palpatine: Lord Vader.
Vader: Yes, my master.
Palpatine: Rise.

What follows is list of everything that has been released in regards to the Revenge of the Sith.

1. Plot
  • The following Lightsaber duels have been confirmed: Obi-Wan vs. General Grievous, Palpatine vs. Mace Windu, Seesee Tiin, Kit Fisto, and Eeth Koth, Anakin/Vader vs. Count Dooku, Anakin/Vader vs. Obi-Wan, Yoda vs. Palpatine
  • Here is a brief summary of the scenes that have been confirmed:

Battle of Coruscant- Huge spacebattle, the biggest ever in a Star Wars Movie

Fight on Grievous's Ship- Anakin and Obi-Wan board the ship. They battle there way to where Grievous is holding the Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Obi-Wan confronts the General while Anakin goes to rescue Palpatine. They barely escape and Grievous's ship goes out into space.

Senate- Palpatine wants even more powers and most of the Senate is willing to give them to him. He wants control over the Jedi Order and the Republic Army. The Jedi, of course, don't want him to have either. Neither do a number of senators, prominent among them are Padmé Amidala and Bail Organa.

Jedi Council- Lately, Anakin has become close friends with Palpatine and as a result, he names Anakin as his representative on the Jedi Council, who now contains Obi-Wan Kenobi. This descision angers many Council members, particularly Mace Windu, who refuses to bestow the rank of Master on Anakin, as is usual for Councilmen. In light of General Grievous's escape, the Council dispatches Obi-Wan Kenobi to find and kill him. This upsets Anakin, who doesn't want the team to be broken up. Yoda is also sent to the Wookiee planet of Kashyyyk.

Confronting Grievous- Obi-Wan tracks Grievous down on an Outer Rim planet and the two continue their duel. Obi Wan wins. (Not information has been disclosed on this scene.)

Kashyyyk- Yoda teams up with Chewbacca and his village to carry out his mission. (Not much has been disclosed on this one either.)

Jedi Arrest- Palpatine has been feeding Anakin dark side knowledge. Anakin begins to get uneasy and tells Windu. He along with Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar, and Seesee Tiin go to arrest him. Palpatine acts weak, making them hold back. But then, he lets lose on them and soon Windu is the only one left. He is soon killed as well. Anakin now pledges his allegiance to Palpatine and becomes Darth Vader. At some point after this scene, there is a duel between Vader and Dooku, which ends with the Count being decapitated with his saber and Anakin's used scissor-style.

The Empire is Born- Palpatine declares himself Emperor and orders the Clone Troopers to destroy all the Jedi. (Not much info on this either)

The Duel- Vader tracks down the separatist comittee on the lava planet Mustafar. He slaughters them. Padmé is there with him. Obi-Wan senses a disturbance in the Force and confronts him. Believing she betrayed him, Vader Force-chokes Padmé to with in an inch of her life. The Duel commences.

Fight for Control- In his private quarters, Yoda confronts Sidious/Palpatine. They engage in a fast paced duel. Palpatine wins, but Yoda escapes to the planet Dagobah, largely with the help of Bail Organa.

Birth of Darth Vader- Obi-Wan is winning the duel and Vader is missing several limbs. Anakin falls off the platform they're fighting on and into the lava field. Obi-Wan picks up Anakin's saber and goes to help Padmè give birth. Palpatine picks up what's left of Anakin and his scientists make him a cyborg and give him his signiture suit. Palpatine informs him that Padmè died during childbirth. Anakin goes crazy and bashes everything around him.

The Harry Potter Scene- Obi-Wan arrives on Tatooine with baby Luke. He presents Owen and Beru with him and tells them the story. He then walks off into the desert.

2. Frequently Asked Questions- my answers to burning questions.
Q: Why don't R2 and 3PO remember the Prequel Trilogy?
A: Their memories were wiped. Lucas has answered this publically, yet this question is still cropping up.
 
Q: Why doesn't Ben remember R2 and 3PO?
A: He never said he doesn't remember them, he just said he never owned a droid, which is true. R4 was just the droid assigned to him by the Jedi.
 
Q: Is General Grievous Darth Maul/Qui-Gon Jinn/other throw away character we thought was dead?
A: No. This has been stated and restated many times, GG is a totally new character.
 
Q: What is Yoda's species?
A: In all honesty: I have no freaking clue. Unlike a certain Star Wars web master with the initials S.S., I don't pretend to have all the answers.
 
Q: What is Palpatine's first name?
A: There is a strong rumor that it is Cos, and I believe it, since originally the Emperor's name was going to be Cos Dashit. There is a strong possibility this will be dealt with in Revenge of the Sith.
 
Q: What is Dooku's first name?
A: See the answer to 'What is Yoda's species'.
 
Q: Why do Yoda, Anakin, and Obi-Wan disappear and Qui-Gon doesn't?
A: I dunno. This will be dealt with in the movie, so I make it my business not to know.
 
Q: Can I ask you a question?
A: Yes. E-Mail me here and I'll do my best to answer.
