Well, Anakin's fall to the dark side IMO.
If I'm not mistaken, Luke's training in the OT was crafted throughout the entire 3 films. According to Yoda...he wasn't technically a Jedi until he faced Vader at the end of ROTJ...."then, only then, a Jedi will you be." That was his final test.
After he beats Vader..."I am a Jedi, like my father before me." The arc is complete.
Star Wars Insider 84 - Ask the Master Q & A - pg. 40
Q: "How much time passes in ROTS? Some people online say it's months because Padme is only just pregnant when she meets Anakin and has children by the end, but I don't think that's right. Is there any official word on this?"
A: "...nine days. DAY ONE starts with the space battle and ends with Anakin's initial dreams of Padme's death. Morning of DAY TWO, Anakin consults with Yoda. By day's end, he hears of Darth Plageuis from Palpatine at the opera. On DAY THREE, on a bright and sunny afternoon, Obi-Wan is dispatched from Coruscant once the Jedi Council learns that Grievous is on Utapau. DAY FOUR, Obi-Wan arrives on Utapau and Anakin discovers the truth about Palpatine. That night, the Republic is sunk as Anakin makes a pact with the devil in Palpatine's office. In the early hours of DAY FIVE, Bail Organa leaves Coruscant and logs alot of interstellar mileage as he picks up Yoda and Obi-Wan. By that night, Palpatine declares himself Emperor. The next bright sunny day is DAY SIX, when Obi-Wan visits Padme to determine where Anakin went. It's sunset when he sneaks aboard her vessel. DAY SEVEN is the day of the duel on Mustafar and between Yoda and Palpatine. DAY EIGHT has Padme giving birth, while Vader is rebuilt. On DAY NINE, we see Naboo during the day as the Tantive IV arrives to deliver Padme's body. The remainder of DAY NINE is hazy since the movie switches to a more stylized depiction of closure across the galaxy. The funeral, the delivery of Luke and Leia, the Emperor and Vader admiring the Death Star may happen at different times and are gathered together editorially."
That coment is ridiculous, RotS is my favourite star wars film and now they say it only takes place in 9 days?
That's not right, If they in least were planning this to take place during 9 days, with the fan reaction of how it was rushed i think that they coul change the events to take place in the time of some months, it wouldn't make much difference and would make us fans happier.
Well, it's not NOW they say it takes place in 9 days...it was THEN, when they wrote the screenplay, that they said it took place in 9 days. Your saying that if they were planning it to be a 9 day period and they knew fan reaction would be that it was rushed, that they should've changed the events to take place in monthly increments? I kinda think that comment is ridiculous (no offense) and I think that would've made MUCH difference. If they were gonna do that - they'd have to change the story around so it took place over a period of months - they might as well start over from scratch - which I wished they did...ROTS was a huge disappointment.
What exactly is a day? The time it takes for a planet to rotate around it's axis OR 24 hours. Just because someone leaves a planet - time doesn't stop. Anakin was on Coruscant for most of ROTS. Use THAT to gauge a timeframe. The fact that Han said in ANH that they would be reaching Alderaan by 02:00 hours seems to indicate they operate on a 24 hour universal clock, like us.
