Ep III trailer (Spoilers likely)

Ok, so maybe this is old news, but I went to see the Incredibles t'other day (I thoroughly recommend it), and saw a trailer for Revenge of the Sith.

I'm surprised this hasn't come up yet, so I thought I'd start a little ol' thread about it.

What I saw:

The emporer, holding a lightsaber looking like he was [url=www.whopissedyouoff.com]pissed off[/url].

Yoda, again going for his lightsaber .

Samuel L Jackson kicking a little *** .

Darth Vader attached to a surgical type table being rotated from lying down to upright, so his face was slowly coming towards camera, with the Emperor saying 'Darth Vader...rise.

A big-*** space battle .

A touch of the fight between Anakin and Obi Wan that you see in the bonus disc from the OT dvd release .

A wookiee army

I think that's most of the stuff that wasn't just fill, if I'm waaay old with this, it must've needed reposting anyway, because it passed me by before! :p

Anyways, yeah, it looks pretty damn good actually, I was left thinking that maybe, just maybe, it might be as good as we at least hope.

I'm fairly sure we had a several page long thread on this within minutes of it being available for download many weeks ago, you drunk fool.

There sure was. Also, I didn't think the Emperor was holding a lightsaber. I'm not even sure that Palpatine will officially be "Emperor" at the end of the film. To me it appeared that Darth Sideous was holding the lightsaber and that he was in fact a different person than Palpatine. Of course I could be mistaken but that was my impression.

Thought someone would say something like that.

Ah well, I've seen it in the cinema and made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

Anyone got a linky to an mpg?

Surely Darth Sidious is the Emperor's alter-ego? I thought that was the point!

Darth Sidious = Senator Palpatine = Emperor Palpatine.

Either that or they spent all the money on special effects and couldnt afford 2 different actors to play Sidious and Palpatine.

The Episode III figures are labelled "Emperor Palpatine."

That figure's face looks pretty crummy. The old Palpatine face (Power of the Force) was awesome.
I can't think of anything to put here right now.

If true I am curious how they will explain how an affable-looking old man in one scene can look so disfigured in another. Not just in the third installment but in the previous two as well. I'm still not certain they are one and the same.

Well like I said, it's the same actor. So either it's the same person in the movie, or clones.
