it seems too short to me. three years sounds about right. i remember hearing an interview with the costume designer? i dont remember ho it was but supposedly the next movie plays out in real time as if the clone wars have been happening this whole time while waiting for ep. 3 (three years) so thats what i belive, the clone wars are happening right now!

AAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Why does he have to put so many plot holes into it??

True, but maybe Vader meant that in a slightly less literal sense? Because hasn't it been stated that his feathers will be ruffled over the fact that he hasn't been made a Master? Maybe learning is a more relative thing.

I don't agree with the "3 years" line. It just don't fit. There is no other "year" time reference on the movies, and they never talk about time periods between movies

It's too short to be real, check Episode I and II crawls. JP, what were you thinking? [/sarcasm]

Yeah, we already read that.
Even if it is not legit, it has some points that can be refused.
This is a disscussion forum, so, we can speak about what you've posted.

as i said before, i really like the first opening crawl
JP posted...with exception to one line...

EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH

For three years the great Clone War
has ravaged the galaxy. Starvation and
misery stalk countless worlds.

Although near defeat, Count Dooku
and his Confederacy of Independent
Systems have masterminded the capture
of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.
---------------------------------------------------------------
^^^^
this is great imho.
in fact, i think its perfect


---------------------------------------------------------------
With the mighty Armada of the Republic
behind them, Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi
and Anakin Skywalker pursue Dooku and
his sinister agents across the galaxy...
---------------------------------------------------------------
this i dont like. i can see "With the mighty Armada of the Republic
behind them, Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi
and Anakin Skywalker....." but the rest i dont like.

the opening crawl sets the stage for the opening scene. this crawl is vague toward the end. i think it will make a direct reference to the battle over coroscant. i would like to complete it, but have no idea how to word it...any thoughts?

how about: "the jedi council has sent the jedi knights to pusue the seperatist leader and free the imprisoned chancellor..."

but worded a little differently

throughout the galaxy.

ok, its still off...but i like the last line as it would just
add to the irony. as far as the "three years" reference,
i can see it happening. no reference has ever been made
of time in the opening crawls, but there was no need for it before.
in the case of an ongoing war, i think it would be apropriate to
fill the audience in an how long the war has taken place since we
saw it begin in ep2

I like the very first crawl posted, I think it makes the most sense. I don't like the whole talk of Anakin and Obi-Wan, but then again I'm not big on the sinister agents. it may create confusion with A New Hope. But still, I like the first crawl best.

The first paragraph usually explains what has became from the last episode, the second paragraph usually explains the events that are about to, or could happen in the movie, and the last paragraph usually explains the opening scene. So if u plan the scroll from those sources, u just might get the perfect scrollsmile

I got this from someone I know, what do u think of it?

THE CLONE WARS have all but devastated the populated galaxy. A separatist movement, commandeering worlds once held by the Count Dooku, has begun a final push towards the core systems and towards igniting a rebellion of unknown proportions

Grievious, a feared warrior general and sworn objector to the Jedi Order, has kidnapped the supreme chancellor, Palpatine, in a statement of defiance towards their perceived enemy

With little time amidst a battle to secure the trade-ways of peace forever, two Jedi knights pilot tri-wing defense crafts towards their fallen leader...


Some of it sounds good, but then there's the part about Grevious capturing Palps, while we know it's Dooku who does it. But might some of it be real?

I also got this one from him:

STAR WARS
Episode III
REVENGE OF THE SITH

THE CLONE WARS have all but devastated the populated galaxy. A separatist movement, commandeering worlds once sought by the general Grievious, has begun a final push towards the core systems and igniting a rebellion of unknown proportions

Dooku, now fearful of his dying cause and sworn objector to the Jedi Order, has kidnapped the supreme chancellor, Palpatine, in a statement of defiance towards his perceived enemy

With little time amidst a battle to secure the trade-ways of peace forever, two Jedi knights pilot tri-wing defense crafts towards their fallen leader...


Now he says that the first one I posted wasn't the one he meant was the right one. I just wish he had said it before the 15minute limit had expired.
