Seriously? It doesn't exactly leave much room for argument. Simple patterns in the English language that mesh WAY too much to be coincidence. Considering that, in the OT, they were the only Sith, I have little doubt that Lucas used this mechanism to create their names.

we were also promised an EU character and an unmasked grievous-actually, that may have been cut to prevent an R rating

Obi-Wan did mention Quinlan Vos in passing, if that counts. Which is, to say, if you're willing to overlook the fact that he had no screentime and that he technically isn't EU.

Lies, deceipt, spreading mistrust; those are McCallum's ways.

Was the kid jedi that attacked the clones while Bail Organa was trying to enter the temple a girl?

ah yes ; and GL made sure to be there as well. his cameo right outside that theatre where the Aqualish performed as Anakin scurried by .

Your theory has two very LARGE holes.

1. Maul. Hmmmm no "in" removed there.

2. Tyranous- Tyrant, so again, no "in" there either.

That means nothing. Its just silly. You know how GL picks Sith (and most bad guy) names? he takes a "mean and scary" word and makes it sound like a name. And sometimes he skips that second part in the case of Grievous.

There is a latin term VADE RETRO that means to go back. It could mean the Sith go back to power after a long time.....just my nickel

Hey ob1-adobe vader actually means father in german. you can find that information in entertainment weekly. The one with the movies quiz and yoda on the cover

Well...

1) When Palpatine calls him "you now will be named Darth Vader", he did it rigth after talking him about saving his pregnant wife, so i believe it just wasnt needed to reiterate the fact that Vader is a direct relation to Father...

2) Master Sifo Dyas was the Lord Sith known as "The Wise"... Palpatine talks about how his former master was the most powerfull sith ever, he was the one responsible for the pregnancy and birth of Anakin, Palpatine also tells us how he killed him about 10 years ago, and it was rigth then when he started training Darth Maul and Count Dooku the Dark side of the Force.... Bottom line is, Sifo Dyas planned the Galactic Empire with Sidious as his lerner, he went behind the back of the Jedi Council, requested the clone army...

Then Sidious killed him in his sleep, and that is why the jedi knew Master Sifo Dyas was killed 10 years ago...

That is why Palpatine knew all along that Ani was the Chosen one...

1. Padme's pregnancy was never discussed between Anakin and Palpatine.

2. Darth Plagius was "The Wise", not Sifo-Dyas. Sifo-Dyas has been revealed to be the name Dooku used to order the clones. There's really nothing else to the story.

One thing I remember is that we were supposed to finally find out what the name of Yoda's race is.

I'm pretty sure that when asked that question, the answer was "no, that will always be an unknown" (or something to that effect)

No, that was Zett, played by Jett Lucas, George's son.

We were also told that Leia's ROTJ comments would make sense. To me, they didn't. There's no reason that Leia should have any memory of her mother where Luke wouldn't, especially since Padme touched Luke and not Leia.

[b]the duel would be 12mins long...and the longest fight ever.....

Nick Gillard or Hayden may have actually said that it would be twenty minutes......... but definitely I remember Hayden saying it would be the "longest fight ever committed to film" ... As far as we know it may have been before it got to the cutting room floor... But in the film, minus the Yoda/Sidious interruptions, from the time Anakin and Obi-Wan ignited their lightsabers until someone's legs went on spring break, there were 6.5 minutes of fighting.... I timed it surprise
