I was hoping EKM would post this here... but here is another "script" (or rather excerpts as it's generally too large).

Probably a "working script" but can I say... what a mess!!!

The numbers which are like "192-198" mean there is nothing written for all of those shots.

EXT. SPACE

TITLE CARD: A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

A vast sea of stars serves as the backdrop for the main title, followed by a roll up, which crawls into infinity.

EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH

War! The Republic is crumbling under
attacks by the separatist leader, Count Dooku.
There are heroes on both sides. Evil is everywhere.

In a stunning move, the fiendish droid leader,
General Grievous, has swept into the Republic

As the separatist droid army attempts to flee
the besieged capital with their valuable hostage,
two Jedi Knights lead a desperate mission
to rescue the captive Chancellor...

PAN DOWN to reveal two JEDI STARFIGHTERS flying in perfect sync. They belong to ANAKIN SKYWALKER and OBI-WAN KENOBI. The lower half of a STAR DESTROYER comes into view and the JEDI fly past the bottom of it.

A group of REPUBLIC STARFIGHTERS are dispatched and suddenly fall downward past a wall of SEPARATIST CRUISERS that are trying to escape from the planet of CORUSCANT and through the blockade of STAR DESTROYERS.

TRI-FIGHTERS are dispatched from the TRADE FEDERATION CORESHIP and begin their attack against the DESTROYERS. The JEDI make their way towards the FEDERATION FLAGSHIP. Suddenly, the TRI-FIGHTERS dispatch their boosters.

Move to right so I can get a clear shot at them. Lock onto him Artoo. We got him!

The STARFIGHTERS continue to make their way towards the FEDERATION FLAGSHIP. The FLAGSHIP turns and begins to fire its turbo lasers towards the DESTORYERS.

BANKING CLAN CRUISERS fire upon a mass of STAR DESTROYERS that exit from hyperspace. The STAR DESTROYERS fire missiles against the BANK CRUISERS.

OBI-WAN
Not this time. We need help. Oddball, do you copy?

ODDBALL
Copy, Red Leader. We're coming up on your right.

The CLONE PILOTS intercept the VULTURE DROIDS.

ODDBALL (cont.)
There are too many of them!

ANAKIN
I am going to help them out.

OBI-WAN
No, you're not! They're doing their job so we can do ours. Head for the command ship.

ANAKIN
Missiles!

A missile hits OBI-WAN's starfighter.

OBI-WAN
I'm hit!

BUZZ DROIDS attach themselves to the starfighter's hull and begin cutting through the wires.

ANAKIN
Master! Buzz droids...

OBI-WAN
Get out of here, Anakin! There's nothing you can do.

ANAKIN
I'm not leaving you, Master!

ANAKIN brings his fighter close to OBI-WAN's.

ANAKIN (cont.)
Steady...steady...

OBI-WAN
Anakin, hold your fire...Blast it! My controls are gone!

ANAKIN
Stay on my wing! Head for the command ships' hangar.

OBI-WAN
Have you noticed that the shields are up?

ANAKIN
Oh! Sorry Master...

Spring the trap...

A DROID GENERAL appears.

DROID GENERAL
General Kenobi. Anakin Skywalker. We've been waiting for you.

OBI-WAN
We are here to relieve you of Chancellor Palpatine, not join him.

DROIDEKA's open fire on the Jedi.

6. ENGINE ROOM, COMMANDSHIP - SPACE

DROID GENERAL (cont.)
Don't shoot! That level is filled with...

ANAKIN and OBI-WAN fall into a pool of fuel.

OBI-WAN
Fuel...That's why they've stopped shooting.

ANAKIN
Well, then we are safe for the time being.

Your idea of safe is not the same as mine.

Oh, come on, this all has to be a bad joke. Anakin saying "this is where the fun begins", directly plagiarising a line from Han Solo in the original Star Wars?

But...wait..."How rude" from The Empire Strikes Back turns up, if I remember rightly, three times in Episode I. So, yeah, it's a bad joke, but very possible it really is Lucas's.

I think it validates the script more than anything else. I'm still hoping for the word "Nerfherder" to make it into the final cut.

[barend]

PADME and ANAKIN sit on a couch on the veranda.

ANAKIN
What do you mean?

PADME
What is a democracy without it first serving all our lives?”

PADME
I'm so proud of you Anakin.

WTF?

I was hoping EKM  would post this here... but here is another  "script" (or rather excerpts as it's generally too large).

Have we met before, Mr Curtis...?

[CowboyCurtis]

Oh, yes, I've enjoyed your posts, and I'm also a hair-for-men... I mean, I'm a member on your Bloody News Forum, too, and I pulled that script via your forum, too.

There are some gushers over there who need to be crushed (*cough* Dark Shape*cough*)

Of course, now it has been pointed out that this is just a "working script" and somewhere (if I can find the link again) is the real script, but I have no doubt that Lucas was relying on that hole-filled piece of crap to film his movie.

Why are you people even considering this is real? It's coming from SS.com

Everyone knows he's a pathetic liar. Try looking around the rest of his site. The "Exclusive George Lucas Interviews" are a riot.
