HookLineAndSinker got his issue today - so the OS reacted methinks

Cool photos.

I like the scenes leading up to Anakin's confrontation with the Council...

Love the new photos. My fav is Ani and Padme's conversation with "misunderstanding" and "mistrust" bathed in the warm red glow of lava.

He's about to reach out and touch someone.

*Also, notice Obi-Wan's missing R4 droid's head. This movie is getting darker all the time.

The pictures are hella cool. [/cartman]

However, they did serve to further confuse the hell out of me as to how Yoda and Kashyyyk fit into the story. I was quite sure that Yoda was going to be on Kashyyyk to start the movie. Just as all the other Jedi leading armies on planets were already there (hence Ki-Adi is a hologram). So why is Yoda sitting IN the Jedi Council? It must be at the beginning of the movie, since when Yoda gets back from Kashyyyk Mace and other Jedi on the Council will be dead. So why does Yoda go to Kashyyyk after this meeting??????

It's starting to seem more and more likely that the whole Kashyyyk thing was just a setup to get Chewie into the film. I don't really see any significant plot device for having Yoda go there. There's already plenty of name Jedi leading armies to see the clones turning on. It would've made sense if Yoda was already there at the start of the film and then had to come back when the clones turned, but to go there just to come back a day or two later?

WHY?

Could it be that Sidious only makes his move against the Jedi because Yoda leaves Coruscant for Kashyyk?

There is a major part of the story I don't understand. There were many scenes filmed with the Jedi in Republic Gunships: Yoda, Mace, Obi... I have no idea where this fits into the story at all.

Another item of note: in the first picture - Tinn and Windu are being shown by Luca$ how a fight will shake down by using a model of a set. Notice the model is the exact same hallway in Palpatine's office shown in picture 8. So the fight there must range throughout the office complex instead of just the one room.

I thought the Gunships deliver the Jedi to the crash site at the beginning? Since this part of the story has been reworked with them going directly to the Senate landing platform, perhaps the Gunships bring the Jedi there?
