Well apperently Grand Moff Tarkin is in Episode III(probably a younger version of him)anyway if he is in Episode III, we might even get to see The Death Star, remember in Episode II we got to see The Death Star plans so anything is possible.

They might have started construction of the Death Star, they did build the new one pretty quickly, but maybe the first on took long, although 18 years is pretty long, and yeah, like finti said, it would of probably to been pretty new in ANH, we'll probably see the plans again or hear dialog about, Maybe from Tarkin, it seems to be his "baby" in ANH. I definitely think he will be in Episode 3, but towards the end of the movie and I see him having a small, but noticeable, role. What do you think Darth?

I'm confused about the whole relationship of the Geonosisians and the Death Star, in the II commentary, Lucas says they end up building it, but its always been the idea (and this was official last time I checked) that it was in fact Tarkin's baby as someone pointed out. It was always said that he took the plans from the guy who helped to invent the TIE engine. but Tarkin took it to the Emperor as his own idea, which is why he supervises it. I mean crap, he was even bossing Vader around. Which means the Emperor obviously respects Tarkin a great deal, or at the very least respects his temporary usefulness. I suppose that all could've happened off screen and now the Geonosians are contracted to build it but it doesn't fit the time table. I only want an explaination of who designed it and who's gonna build it. That would be easily covered in a minute or two.
its not ALL eu, a lot of it is stuff GL has said in various talks about SW I've seen. But, its also doesn't matter because he can change whatever he wants that isn't written in film. But the implication has always been that Tarkin had something to do with its origin or he wouldn't be the ranking officer. But there was that other guy, the little prick Vader chokes, Vader said "technilogical terror you've constructed" to that guy. i'm not sure if he means that guy in particular or if he means the Empire in general. but, i'd at least appreciate a HINT of how it comes to be. We don't need anymore debates once 3 is done GL!
Yeah Vader choked Motti, and Vader tells him not to be too proud of the technological terror HE has constructed so.............. guess Motti is credited for constructing the DS out of the plans we saw the Genosians had of it in AOTC
