Someone bought a bootleg copy of Episode 3 in China. This site is some screen captures that show the english subtitles to the Chinese voice overs. Some are pretty damn funny.

I'm pretty sure that Lucas knew from the beginning that the Stormtroopers were clones.? I mean, what would the Clone Wars be about if not to create the army?

Storm troopers arn't clones - hell they all have different voices and different heights!

[Mr. Dick Purple]

8 months??  not in our wildest dreams, perhaps 8 centuries should fit, but yeah I have to tell all my friends that doesn't live here so they can bring the original stuff cause here the pirates are in abundance.

What are the deleted scenes like on the DVD?

Nothing too special.

A scene of Anakin and Obi Wan working their way through the ship trying to rescue Palpatine at the beginning of the film

About 3 scenes showing the meetings that led to the development of the Empire

The scene that shows Yodah landing on Dagobah

At work yesterday, I had to spend around 15 minutes explaining to this guy who had just finished watching episode 3, that episodes 1, 2 and 3 are prequels to the old 4, 5 and 6.. he still didn't understand!

You never told us you work with D!

To answer the question about stormtroopers having different heights in Episodes 4-6; play the new Battlefronts 2 game and you will have your answer

[RichardNixon]

What's the answer?

There are going to be inconsistencies between 1, 2, 3, and 4, 5, 6. In 1977 Lucas wasn't thinking about how the clones would be explained in 2002. Btw, how does Vader take a dump?

[Mr. Dick Purple]

He doesn't he is like robocop, he makes some sort of smashed potatoes thing 

[Kujo]

The Battlefronts 2 game actually follows a storyline that picks up from the end of Episode 3. It shows how the Empire goes throughout the galaxy stomping out the uprising that happens.

At one point the people who were developing the clones on Kamino start to develop an army to fight against the Empire. One of the missions in the game is to invade Kamino, wipe out the "new" clone army, and to capture the DNA that is being used to develop the clones.

After you complete this mission, you are told the story of how after this incident the emperor dissolved the cloning process and started recruiting soldiers, both willing and unwilling, to become the new wave of stormtroopers

I got the game - not impressed with it - are ur team mates deliberately stupid?

Just ignore the ''lore'' that these games give out - i used to read up on it all, its all written by idiots - thankfully the new films destroyed much of the lore Lucasfilm had OFFICIALLY sanctioned previously:nervous:

[Izzy]

What are the deleted scenes like on the DVD?

Awful!

They look like they were made with a budget of about 5 quid - and Lucas cut them because they are awful, would have totally destroyed the momentum of the film.

The sequences with the Alliance - argh - Natalie Portman cannot act, i cringed at every line she delivered, no wonder they cut those scenes with her dire performances - what made Ep3 so good is that she had so few lines to ruin

Are you saying that Natalie Protman is a bad actress or she couldn't act like a decent Amidala? cause I think that NP has great performances in other movies and she's a great actress, at least in the ones I've seen.

Well, she is dreadful in all 3 Star Wars films so i have my doubts

cause I think that NP has great performances in other movies and she's a great actress, at least in the ones I've seen.

I hope so - maybe Lucas's script is to blame...

I dont consider her a great actress but she was entertaining in other films. She did have quite a few cringe inducing scenes over the course of the new trilogy. Lucas can't write dialogue, I feel that has been established. He should have given someone with that ability the out line of what was to happen and let that person write the dialogue. Kevin Smith comes immediately to mind.

[Mr. Dick Purple]

Well I know that GL doesn't give a great script specially in the last Epi, but I don't think that NP is a bad actress I think it should be blame the dialogue 
Kevin Smith is a great writter but he wouldn't do a good job in Star wars perhaps too much sarcasm

Well watch the deleted scenes on ep.3 - and u'll see what i mean, her delivery is so very poor, sounds really unnatural and forced

I will but as I've seen they sucked so the expectation it's quite low. Any other deleted escenes in the other episodes?
