What do you want from Return of the Sith? No idea can be too stupid

Personally, I'd like to see a kind of "Passion of the Skywalker".

We keep the same paper thin plot that Lucas is going to use anyway - this will use up about 10 minutes of screen time. Then, for the remaining 2 hours, rather than pointless action sequences, we see Anakin suffering relentless and agonising torture.

I freely admit this isn't great cinema, but Anakin deserves it after AotC. I submit that this is a valid outline for the film because a) it's better than what we'll get; b) nothing can save the trilogy anyway, so it can't spoil Star Wars (any more).

Mel Gibson has shown that this format can work. I think Lucas and McCallum would be missing out on a trick if they didn't try it. It's not too late either.

Sounds great. I'd pay to see Anakin getting relentless torture.

And while we're on that subject, let me just say that I'm only hoping to see two things.

1) The return of that very cute girl who played the young version of Aunt Beru in the otherwise staggeringly bad AOTC.

2) Obi-Wan literally kicking Anakin in the ass.

I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an obi-wan to go.

I'd like to see the fallout between Anakin and Padme performed as a musical to the tune of "Slap My Bit** Up". I'd also like to see the Wookies perform a revisited Yub-Yub song as they're victorious on Kashyyyk. Yoda, digging his new home on Dagobah singing "Falling on my head these raindrops are". Quite frankly, any obnoxious music number will do.

He's right you know, Bonnie Piesse (Beru) is really cute.

Hmm... yeah, I'd pay to watch that.

The sandpeople had women and children. We know this because Anakin killed them how could he tell? The children might be smaller but I never saw a sandperson with breasts. Did they hike their skirts and show him some leg or something?

Also, I can see the point of wanting to kidnap a human and use her as a slave, but they didn't. They tied her to a flimsy easel for a month. It's assumed they had to feed and give her water. What for? Was she purely ornamental? I can understand them wanting the droids, you can sell those for a lot of money, but a chick who's only skills are finding non-existand mushrooms and getting randomly pregnant, you're not going to get much.

I think she's kind of cute in that "girl next door" way. Altho, that hairdo does nothing for her, and she looks Amish in those clothes. I'd like to see her in something else to judge better.

Women are so scarce in the star wars galaxy, talking about Beru makes me feel like on the chain gang in cool hand luke. she's ok, but Lucas ain't going to give her any personality.

If only we were treated to a scene where Beru washes the land speeder in a skimpy top.

Yeah, Lucas is about as good at writing women as the late, great Philip K. Dick.

I am really glad some of you guys thought young Beru cute. It shows that not only glamour and bare midriff counts with some people and it is really like a breath of fresh air

And I don't really think she would look all that great in a skimpy top.

cute. My best friend's wife, 30-ish is pregnant again and just loves her maternity tube-top.

I don't see the need to have to display your belly and bum-crack, but the zeitgeist beckons.

Young Beru was definitely cute in a personality-free and completely undeveloped sort of way.

I want to see a cameo of George Lucas as a Jedi, getting decapitated by Ewoks.

Sounds cool.

Young Beru, played by Bonnie Piesse, is cute and alluring in an understated sort of way (it helps that she didn't have to say any of the embarrassingly bad lines Natalie Portman spouts).
