[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 7306912, member: 5143"] Well, I did get the impression that he was trying not to say some things he wasn't allowed to. I came away thinking that what he actually MEANT was that George Lucas had a VERY loose outline for 1-3 that pretty much just said "Clone Wars, Anakin Skywalker falls to the dark side. Then he fights with Obi-Wan over lava and falls in." (that last part I saw on Usenet threads as early as 1994 due to an article published back in 1977 ([url]https://www.rollingstone.com/movies/news/the-wizard-of-star-wars-20120504?page=9[/url]) where Lucas said: "Vader kills Luke's father, then Ben and Vader have a confrontation, just like they have in Star Wars, and Ben almost kills Vader. As a matter of fact, he falls into a volcanic pit and gets fried and is one destroyed being. That's why he has to wear the suit with a mask, because it's a breathing mask. It's like a walking iron lung. His face is all horrible inside. I was going to shoot a close-up of Vader where you could see the inside of his face, but then we said, no, no, it would destroy the mystique of the whole thing." I don't think he had much more planned than those events. At that time, Vader and Luke's Father were different people and Lucas only changed his mind between ANH and ESB. Still, I think it shows that the idea that there was a plan for a basic outline of what happened even that far back. Though I really did get the impression that the outline was changed heavily in order to agree with Lucas' new thinking on the themes. [/QUOTE]
