Description of new Revenge of the Sith trailer

Can’t wait till next week for the new trailer for Revenge of the Sith? Well too bad. BUT, you can read the whole play by play description of the trailer here:

LFL Logo, Fox logo etc.

A Theta-Class shuttle and three fighters fly by the camera towards Coruscant.

Coruscant, late afternoon, the Republic Executive Office appears for a brief moment.

Palpatine (close-up, speaking very slowly, deliberately, looking straight ahead, watching the ballet)

PALPATINE
…The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be… unnatural.

Anakin closeup (extremely focused on Palpatine’s words)

ANAKIN
Is this possible to learn those powers?

Palpatine (close-up, matter-of-factly, facing Anakin)

PALPATINE
Not from a Jedi.

A civilian shuttle turns over the Coruscant cityscape towards the Senate building.

Obi-Wan and Anakin are inside the Temple, walking down stairs.

OBI-WAN
The Council wants you to report on all the Chancellors dealings.

Magna Droids stand with two Battle Droids.

ANAKIN
That’s treason.

Palpatine standing up from his chair in his private office.

OBI-WAN
We are at war, Anakin.


The space battle and some explosion where clone-troopers die.

Anakin moves to take a seat in the Chancellor’s private viewing box in Galaxies Opera. We see huge spheres of water levitating over stage with dancers inside them.

Mace (voice over, in a grim voice)

MACE
…Very dangerous putting them together…

Palpatine in his office, patting Anakin’s shoulder.

MACE
I don’t think the boy can handle it…

Mace & Obi in the gunship over Coruscant.

MACE
I don’t trust him.

Tri droids blazing guns, Republic fighter exploding, debris flying by.

Palpatine in his office (concerned).

PALPATINE
I need your help, son.

Palpatine walks away from Anakin:

PALPATINE
I’m appointing you to be my personal representative on the Jedi Council.

Anakin standing in the middle of the Jedi Council room. We see him from behind. Ki-Adi-Mundi and Plo-Koon appear holographic with other Jedi Masters present.

MACE
You’re on this Council, but we do not grant you the rank of Master.

Kenobi looks away from Anakin’s reaction.

ANAKIN (close-up, shocked)
What?

In Padme’s apartment – Bedroom.

ANAKIN ( to Padme, bitterly)
Obi-Wan and the Council don’t trust me.

Huge gun with clone crew, large explosion aboard ship.

Palpatine (V.O)
Learn to know the dark side of the Force…

Anakin grim and focused, listening; then with Padme, at night on the balcony.

PALPATINE in his office (forcefully)
… And you’ll achieve power greater than any Jedi.

Anakin briefly fighting Dooku and then the posse entering private office.

Music stops.

The Jedi ignite lightsabers.

MACE
You’re under arrest, Chancellor.

Palpatine in his chair carefully controlling his anger.

PALPATINE
Are you threatening me, Master Jedi?

Close up: lightsaber hilt snaps to Palpatine’s hand with audible click.

From now on, 10 drum beats and no other sound – one for each short (second or two) scene

– Posse enter, but this time Sidious jumps in its direction from behind (over) the camera, we only see his back; then Mace in defensive pose;

– Ship (Grievous’ fighter) flying away from a planet;

– Obi-Wan in huge control room on Utapau, totally surrounded by battle droids, MagnaGuards and Grievous;

– Capital ships fighting in close quarters, one of them falling down smoking heavily;

– Bail shouting in his speeder, with blaster shots flying by;

– Obi-Wan’s fighter flying over Utapau;

– Anakin hanging in the elevator (turbolift) shaft;

– Camera flying down to Mustafar surface;

– Grievous versus Obi-Wan Kenobi duel; we see Grievous from behind only; his fighter and some rocks in the background.

– One-tracked vehicle (tank) speeding on and closing to the camera; Wookiees jump off it, one of them straight on the camera.

Longshot: pillar of smoke over Jedi Temple.

Music returns.

Emperor’s voice from the Original Trilogy.

SIDIOUS
Every single Jedi is now an enemy of the Republic…

During this line brief scenes: Sidious’ not so pretty face, Obi-Wan looking anxiously at droids closing on him, then Mace with saber and Palpatine’s back (his hair indicates strong wind), then Yoda with clones behind his back – they aim blasters at him.

Chewbacca (close-up), roars.

Tantive IV flies by, towards a planet.

PALPATINE (V.O.)
Do what must be done.

During this line: Anakin Skywalker looks very dark and dangerous, in the hood, then leading ranks of troops (shot first from high above and then from ground level, closing to the camera).

PALPATINE (cont.)
Do not hesitate…

During this line: Aayla Secura surrounded by clones who aim blasters at her….

PALPATINE (cont.)
Show no mercy…”

Ki-Adi-Mundi also surrounded by clones; they open fire and he tries to block shots with lightsaber.

Then, Anakin Skywalker approaches the camera, probably in Mustafar bunker, then cutting down two separtists.

OBI-WAN KENOBI (to Yoda inside the Temple):
Who could have done this?

Anakin Skywalker cutting the Neimoidian.

A very sith-like Anakin Skywalker, standing on the pillared balcony on Mustafar, in dark cloak and hood on.

YODA (to Obi-Wan)
Twisted by the dark side young Skywalker has become.

Anakin Skywalker cutting into another Neimoidian.

Threepio, leaving Padme on the balcony, Coruscant at night: “I feel so helpless…”.

Then a montage:

* Battle over Coruscant.

* Jedi starfighter incoming.

* Padme crying.

* Anakin and Obi-Wan duel in large hall.

* Coruscant battle again.

* Kashyyk battle.

* Obi-Wan and Anakin exchange lightsaber blows in a narrow corridor, with sparks flying off the walls.

* Sidious shooting force lightning at a surprised Yoda.

* Obi-Wan with hands outstretched for a force push, determined and tight, like in a contest “who’s stronger in The Force”.

* A 10-wheeled Juggernatu tank shoots rockets straight ahead.

* Space battle with R2 close-up.

* Obi-wan jumps back, down to the circuit/ pipe hanging over a lava river.

* Anakin Skywalker with lava in the background.

* Obi-Wan Kenobi with lava in the background, shouting very dramatically, almost through the tears:

OBI-WAN KENOBI –
You were the chosen one!

* Space explosions.

* Sidious throwing Senate pods with The Force.

* Yoda avoiding them and rolling over – Senate chamber in the background.

* Sidious with lightsaber close-up, with a very sinister smile or laugh.

* Craft flying over water, possibly on Kashyyyk; fountains of water arise.

* Huge wave of lava falls over a pipe on Mustafar.

* Obi-Wan and Anakin duel on the balcony. (The same place where Anakin stood earlier, Sith-looking).

* Yoda looks up at the camera, close-up.

* Mace swinging his saber and kicking or falling back.

* Space battle again.

* Anakin and Obi-Wan exchange lightsaber blows in mid-air, flying over lava on long cables…
Episode III – Revenge of the Sith

Breathing…

Shot from their left side, aboard the Star Destroyer: Vader folding arms on his chest and and Emperor staring straight ahead.

  1. Please tell me what the address for where you make the books and where you write them. Because Im doing a report on my favorite author and I need to know where to send my letter.

  2. DAMN! If I was only mildly excited before I’m full force now. Chills…the mist of tears…eep! It’s going to be a fantastic day!

    The kid and I will be ditching our responsbilities on that day.

  3. Palpatine is watching a ballet. :-\

    None of the trailers for the prequels have sucked. I’m withholding judgement until I actually see this movie.

  4. wowwie zowwie!!! ok.. i will finish sewing the hood on my Palpatine costume and put in the yellow contact lenses… Where is the line? I’m camping out. This movie is just sounding sweeter and sweeter!!!
