Vader vs Yoda ?!?!?!

Anakin & Yoda vs *insert name/s here*

My bet would be on a verbal confrontation. Palpatine has asked Anakin to be his full time bodyguard, and Yoda has his reserves towards the politician (as it seems from his look in AOTC). Anakin sticks up for Palpatine. Hell, maybe he even quits the Jedi to be with Palpatine.

THAT'D be something...

If the Wookies are just shot on blue screen... with background plates... how "real" is this going to look?

...how "real" is this going to look?

At least as real as a rubber puppet and motion capture tauntauns.

This was much more fun before the internet.

Most of my life is spent dealing with reality.

I dont watch Star Wars for reality. I watch it for a great escapist space fantasy.

We will see Anakin's mechanical arm without the glove. I believe Pablo reported in one of his set diaries that a scene was shot with a shirtless Hayden wearing a blue sleeve on his arm for ILM to put in the details of his mechanized appendage. It was a scene between him and Natalie. One of the Before the Helmet photos seems to be of the scene Pablo talked about. It shows Anakin and Padme together on her apartment's veranda and you can clearly see the blue glove he's wearing.

At least in one scene we'll be seeing his mechanical arm, if it survives editing of course.

I think he should gently stroke her cheek with a metal finger...

In other words, despite the fact that its been over 20 years and there has been leaps in FX technology, the Wookies and the Troopers and the planet they're on will look as real as stuff made in the 1970s. Great.
