ok maybe not the biggest thread but still where and how did he get it.Probably from the clone wars.but who did it.
Darth Venom
no not lava this was before the lave
LanİeWindu
Yep, Clone Wars.
LanİeWindu
It's LavA, not LavE, or you can call it Magma.
yerssot
thought I read on hyperspace they wouldn't explain it
Darth Venom
OMG i put "E" F**king e insted of "A" in LAVA
Sith Master X
I wouldn't mind knowing how Anakin gets his scars, but an explaination might as well be pointless depending on what it is, or how it happened.
SMX
Bagels
Well, I don't think they would explain, cause it is pretty obvious that it came from the clone wars. One thing that does peak my interest however, does Anakin have it in ROTJ?
Sith Master X
Are you referring to the scene when Luke takes off Vader's helmet in ROTJ? I know he's got some evil scars on his face then, but I believe that was a result of his burns from the lava.
SMX
zasmare
iv heard that theres going to be a starwars book released around the time of E3 is released and its going to explain the scars, apprantly its a story between E2 and E3, dont no if its true of not..
GABRIEL05
No it's technically only magma when it's still underground under pressure. Totally different chemicals & elements involved...
Bagels
Well yeah, the most obvious scars are from the lava. Hell, I knew that before E1, but I'm referring to the scar he got from the clone wars. The one that we're talking about. I haven't checked it yet, I was just curious if anyone noticed whether or not we see it in ROTJ.

what if when he falls into the lava he somehow smacks that part of his head on a rock with a small bit of lava while his other part of the body is in the pool of lava.
Sith Master X
Yes I know. What I meant was that the scars we see there are probably from his burns in the lava, and that none appear to be from the clone wars, I mean, the scars he has there are huge and bulge way out of his head, and his face in ROTJ (most of them). From the pics I've seen of Anakin in Episode III, he doesn't appear to have anything major on his face.

Sith Master X
This pic was posted by DragonX, actually if you look at it, you can see what appears to be a scar off to the side of his right eye leading to his forehead. Hmm...it's kind of dark though. Maybe it could be blood?

I don`t know. It`s hard to tell.

Any news on this 'Scar' ??

so basically this scar will have nothing to do with the movie, it being caused by Ventress during the clone wars -
JKozzy
I don't get it. Who's Ventress?
GCG
Exactly ! its a Fecking EU chracter !
and she has a red lightsabre ; and we know that red lightsabres are used by the sith ONLY.
But we also know that there can be only 2 sith...........
zavin
so its during the clone wars, at the rematch with Asajj
Red Superfly
OKay, I'm really geting sick of "It was caused by Ventress" claims. No it wans't. Ventress doesn't exist. EU.
WTF? "He hits his head on the way down into the lava"? HE ALREADY HAS THE SCAR!
Anakin does not have that scar in ROTJ when he is unmasked.
It's the first thing I noticed when I saw the very first pics of Ep. III ANakin. I was like "OK WTF?". They've kinda just added that scar to Anakins face and not followed it up. Scars fade, yes, but they don't dissapear altogether, especially a scar like that.
I'm going to assume that when Lucas brings out the mega super special deluxe hyper editions, we will see that scar added to Vaders face.
It's weird, they managed to put EP. III Anakin into ROTJ. They even removed Vader's eyebrows. How on Earth did they forget to add his "new" scar?
And stop quoting damn EU as fact!
Jedi Priestess
Oki doki it's obviously time to close this thread.
BAILY
Anakin gets his scar in the Clone Wars .... end of story. It shows the hardships he has gone through between AOTC and ROTS. It also shows he is battle hardened...... that is all we need to know. End of story.
GCG
why is time to close ? there is obviously disagreement on the origin of the scar ; all i ask is for some official evidence on the nature of the scar.
Jedi Priestess
Becuase its EU.......and this is the EP3 section. Or did ya not notice the sign on the door? And it's turing into an argument. At the very least it needs moved to EU.
MochaChica
What does 'EU' stand for?
Torik_Shai
Expanded Universe (everything that isn't in the films)
GCG
im not quite sure what to say. ... erm
the scar is in episode 3; there is a fine line between episodes and EU.
are we sure that its 100 % Asajj ? ; cause in that case it should be moved.
BAILY
not to get technical.... but Anakin's scar is ROTS related... He has it in the movie, does he not?? lol... sorry I like to stir the sh!t in the pot sometimes.... it is the origins of it that are EU.... but what if he mentions in the movie, about Ventress giving it to him?? That would make it cannon......
GCG
well now im getting fecking intrigued............can you see a scar in this pic ?

.:Darth Dave:.
wow. dont close this thread, its totally relevant to ROTS and maybe explained. is the return of ventress shown on the new clonewars series coming up? Also- Ventress isnt a Sith; she approached Dooku and told him she was a Sith so he challenged her to a duel and kicked her ass. Dooku found uses for her and told her to hunt down Anakin Skywalker- its in the episode descriptions. So she maybe a rogue jedi or dark jedi- take your pick.
JediMasterYoda
I used to dismiss the EU as crap. But this scar brings a new validity to the EU. It shows that GL recognizes it. I also thought about, what are we going to do as a Star Wars fan after Ep.III? We know the GL is finished doing movies after this. So the only way to enjoy Star Wars after Ep. III is to look at the EU.
.:Darth Dave:.
Exactly my thoughts as well. Lets hope none of us fall down the trap hole of being offered to star in SuperShadows' Sequel series (Ep's VII-IX).
DD Out.
Obiwalker08
well you see vader dosent have the scar in ROTJ because he has a face lift and what not. cant a dark lord of the sith do something to makehimself look beautiful?
Jedi Priestess
Uh not necessarily. It's quite easy to enjoy SW after the movies without turning to EU. I have nothing against EU fans, honestly I dont. WHere I have the problem is people that want to discuss EU all the time like it's gospel or something. It just isnt folks.....and you guys need to learn to accept that. You can be fans of EU and all but this isnt the place to discuss it and it's certainly not canon. IMHO the EU was created for the fan boys pure and simple.
Regarding that scar, it's not that deep a scar either if you look at it. Certainly nothing like the kind left from the lava bath.
J.M FcThumbs-Up
I agree on this JP, the scar is obviously not to deep...if you just look at the scar-pattern.
We must assume after Anakin takes the plunge and Sidious arrives, he doesn't put him in the suit rightaway...I'm talking about Bacta-Tank healing stuff(like Luke in ESB) and after that the cosmetics and yeah finally he goes bionic!
And ehhh, please Darth Dave...don't mention SuperShadow again...I know how most of the peeps here think about him.
NO Episodes 7 to 9..never....
Don't do that again!!!
Oh, can somebody confirm? Will there be liveaction-SW-series on tv after ep3...I've read this somewhere and seen it at some talkshow....???????????????????????????????????????????
peluffo
In a mid of a war, maybe bacta is just for the seriously wounded and cosmetic medicine is useless. He has this scar because it is irrelevant. He didn't has a trace of that scar 20~23 years later because all his skin (gray and dry) is a big scar of what happens to him (be wrapped on that mask and suit forever)
PVS
anakin should have a scar in ep6,
but he doesnt.
its a f**k up.
get over it.
wallalupp
I think most of his skin gets burned away in the lava, so no scar is not necesseraly a mistake,
but it could also be a mistake, you never know with GL
Xam
does anakin have a scar in the new DVD release of ROTJ?
peluffo
a ghost with a scar???
/edit// my mistake, you mean unmasked vader, not the ghost of Hayden at the very end. No, it is not visible.
Stunrun
i always thought Grievous gave Anakin his scar, which was why he wanted the assignment to bring GG to justice. The Jedi Council saw that Anakin wanted revenge, so they gave Obi-Wan the assignment.
/\ btw i dunno how true this is /\
Jedi Priestess
Thats highly plausible. Good theory!
PVS
no it isnt
his skin is there in ep6
i know that there is a limit to science in star wars,
but this is way too far. a scar which is "burned away" (impossible, but for the sake of arguement) would be replaced by scars from those burns. sebastion shaw's skin has not a single blemish in that area.
there would be no point for palps to order that scar healed, as it is completely superficial especially when you consider the gigantic gouge in his cranium. it just doesnt make sense. but whatever. luke made out with his sister, yoda's cloths vanished along with him, and anakin has a disappearing scar...inconsistancies...what can you do?
brendy
Luke making out with Leia is not really an inconsistancy. Its disturbing
...but not inconsistant.
As for the scar does it really matter that much if we are not told where it came from? C3POs silver leg was never explained!
GCG
well knowing how geeky we are about anakin, YES, it does matter where the scar came from. You see scars tell stories about a person. If Sidious mentions Dart Plageus (EU) to Anakin in ROTS, it is possible that Anakin mentions Ventress to Padme in ROTS.
Then the scar becomes part of Ep3.
the only way the scar could have vanished in ROTJ, is by Anakin getting part of his face being reconstructed using skin tissue from another are of his body.
jedi90
maybe its just visable because its a fresh scar. depending on how deep the wound was a scar like that can disappear over time.
Revan X
He probably got it while fighting Grevious-spelling please.
greed0
i heard that that scar is a result of a battle during the dreamy type sequence he has like the one in rotj by luke
Batman316
um.... ok how about this... Anakin doesn't have the scar in ROTJ simply because it healed in the Bacta tank after he goes swimming. (no Bacta does not regrow arms and legs :P lol)
I always thought those scars we see in Vader at the end of ROTJ were burns from the Emperor's lightning.
CountQuan
how do you guys get these pictures? i searched for them but i cant find them.
Xam
well...look in the Finished shots thread in the episode 3 section
you will find everything you need there
legomaniack
is in the clone war or the lightling
Cascador
The scar won't be explained in the movie, it's just damage from the Clone Wars...because it's not explained in the movie, expanded universe takes on the story where Anakin got that scar from...So he got the scar like the comic showed from Asajj Ventress, she's EU, so she won't be mentioned in the movie, great chance George doesn't even know about her altho he knew about Aayla Secura who was also an EU character. Ventress is not a Sith, just a dark Jedi who got her lightsabers from Dooku, two which are curved like Dooku's, they can connect so that they form a double-bladed lightsaber.
Red Superfly
Anything we come up with will be speculation.
IF Anakin says where he got the scar, or we see how we got it - then that's legit.
If the scar isn't mentioned at all, then we can speculate all day long because NOTHING will be true. He has a scar from the Clone Wars, that's all we KNOW.
Could have been Ventress, could have been a wayward laser blast, could have been an explosion, could have been anything. We just won't know UNLESS ROTS TELLS US.
EU is not canon unless GL himself makes a movie about it. Please, remember this.
Cascador
Think...why would they mention the scar...it's just a stupid scar, it has nothing to do with the story!
