Star Wars Episode 3 Play-By-Play In Pictures

jflint writes "Here is a site with over 80 screenshots (claiming more to come) that shows the story line of the upcoming Star Wars Episode 3. Some of the screenshots have French subtitles in them." These shots -- especially the space battle scenes -- certainly make it look more worthwhile than the two prior episodes.

Ah! Mirror! Quick!

Hopefully, this time, it works.

slashdotted.. and a school server

[tulimulta]

The pics are on the webserver of a polytechnic in Tampere, Finland. The webserver is on its knees already, and the user don't have a permission to keep this material on the server for sure. I guess they're not going to be there for long. =)

Lucas already makes Hollywood the laughing stock, his creativity died in the 70's and people still snigger at his lack of directing variability and diversity (unlike scorsese etc)

That image came out back in March. It appeared in "Star Wars Insider". There's a much better shot here [aintitcool.com].

The second seems to be holding up pretty well. Of course by the time this is posted, it'll be the opposite;p

btw, it's on Kazaa now

[aendeuryu]

I don't know how well this will work, but I've got in on Kazaa as a zipped webpage under the title "Star Wars Episode 3 Photos".

Do an AC reply to this post if you were able to get it.

Sorry, I don't know how to do torrents...

Fair warning:

I saw these last night, and this is about the biggest spoiler you can possibly see for the movie. Almost every scene is pictured, along with a description of each scene.

Re:slashdotted.. and a school server

[Anonymous Coward]

Because:
1) server pings ok
2) the only network bottleneck would be the speed of server's NIC (or maybe local LAN equipment).

tpu.fi's internet provider is FUNET (Finnish university and research network). They have "sufficient" internet connections - you can't even notice /. effect from their traffic statistics...
I'd bet the server is very low on memory with all those big pictures.

Re:Contradiction

[will_die]

That is not a problem.
You are thinking that it was thier actual mother instead of Leia being given off to some other people like Luke was.
This also explains how Leia is from Alderan instead of Naboo, and why she has the name Organa.
The plot holes could come in that Darth did not know he had children(RTJ). If he chokes her while giving birth that kind of destroies that.
Before I am marked too high a geek, the only reason I know that is because I walked the movies over the weekend.

Re:Padme dies in child birth?

[Zoso20]

Obi-wan and Anakin are not related. Maybe Obiwan said that in EP4 but lets just chalk that up to living in the desert alone for 20 years and senility.....

Re:Padme dies in child birth?

[Bloomy]

BEN (continuing his narrative) When your father left, he didn't know your mother was pregnant. Your mother and I knew he would find out eventually, but we wanted to keep you both as safe as possible, for as long as possible. So I took you to live with my brother Owen on Tatooine... and your mother took Leia to live as the daughter of Senator Organa, on Alderaan.

I can't remember if "When your father left, he didn't know your mother was pregnant" (or some semblance) was actually left in the movie version of RotJ, it's been a while since I've seen the movie. But I remember the rest of the quote comes from the novelization, which, while it may be based on an early draft of the script, isn't strictly canon [starwars.com] (I hope saying that doesn't open up a can of worms here).

The novelizations of the original trilogy had extra scenes and dialog not in the movies, like more of Luke's training on Dagobah in ESB and Kenobi telling Luke in ANH that even a duck [starwars.com] has to learn how to swim. I can't remember if Han's confrontation with Jabba in Mos Eisley was in the book. I haven't read it, but I heard the book for the Phantom Menace also had some extra scenes that weren't in the movie, like a dream Anakin had about he and Padme leading opposing armies into battle.

One thing I did learn from the novelizations was the Emperor's name was Palpatine [bookfree.com.cn].

Re:Life after Death in Star Wars?

[Master Ben]

Yoda and ObiWan aren't escaping death. They allow their souls pass on to the living force where they stay for a few years. Eventually they fade away.

Darth Plaguesis is talking about staying alive in the real world. Sidious learned this technique from him.

BTW Yoda learns how to pass to the living force from Qui Gonn, who will appear as a force ghost in EP3.

Star Wars bosses threaten legal action

[MojoStan]

Here is a site with over 80 screenshots (claiming more to come) that shows the story line of the upcoming Star Wars Episode 3.

From the IMDb.com news story 'Star Wars' Bosses Warn Websites Again [imdb.com]:

Movie bosses financing forthcoming prequel Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge Of The Sith are threatening to take legal action against internet sites that leak pictures and plot details.
