Anakin in Return of the Jedi

OK this is 2 fold...
firstly does the title refer to Luke becoming a Jedi or Anakin returning to the light side?

and it looks like ( ok we don't know for sure ) Hayden is at the end as a ghost in ROTJ. But when Luke takes off Vaders helmet is it Hayden or Mr Shaw?

to answer your first question if you go by what Lucas has said it refers to Anakin and to answer the second I think it will be Shaw for the taking off of the helmet.

well this is supposed to be a screen cap off the dvd

well this is supposed to be a screencap from the ot dvd for rotj....

thats what I said

Just realised no eyebrows on Anakin and hes a whiter shade of pale too,guess they realised when his hair got burnt off his brows wouldve gone up too....those were some bushy eyebrows.

They changed his eye color to match Hayden's also

But hey at least well remember those eyebrows for the outstanding job they did in Episode 2.

errrrrrr Mr Shaws accent is very different from Hayden's.

what accent? I dont recall either of them having one?

I could live with that a lot easier than to see them put Hayden's face in where Sebastian's would be.....

The first is highly debated. What comments are you referring to, JP?

Haydens has an American accent but Seb Shaws sounds more like a Brit like Obi Wan.

All I can say thank George for not going totally with the retroactive changes!
Putting Hayden under the helmet in that scene would be too bizarre. I would have more trouble with that than the way they've put Hayden in the ghost sequence.

i think you could well be right Darth, I ok with Hayden being the ghost at the end. I do think it links the 2 trilogys better.

That will actually make more sense to me: Anakin's ghost is him before his fall. That kind of lets Luke know he succeeded in saving him.

your right on the money

yeah but the save was reflected in the still alive old man...Luke saw his face there.....Luke had saved him and the old man that was now there had ceased to be Vader....

True, but maybe the Force thought Luke was a little dense (or maybe just the audience) and needed clarification.......

I hope they don't change ROTJ too much.

And as for the title, Return of the JEdi's gonna be able to mean a lot. Which is fun: an ambiguous title.

It could be: return of Anakin, return of Luke, return of THE Jedi in general.... Or all of the above.
