 This month, Vanity Fair magazine celebrates the upcoming release of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith with magnificent photos of the actors and crew taken by renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz, and an exclusive interview with George Lucas. The Star Wars creator reveals several secrets, including explaining midi-chlorians once and for all, as well as giving his own views as to why Darth Vader should be regarded less as the ultimate monster than as a potential hero who made all the wrong choices throughout his journey. This issue commemorates the entire Star Wars saga with a special fold-out cover that features Lucas posing with actors and characters from all the films, photographed by Leibovitz. Included are Hayden Christensen (Anakin Skywalker), Jake Lloyd (young Anakin), Natalie Portman (Padmé Amidala), Ewan McGregor (Obi-Wan Kenobi), Christopher Lee (Count Dooku), Ian McDiarmid (Supreme Chancellor Palpatine), Pernilla August (Shmi Skywalker), Liam Neeson (Qui-Gon Jinn), Jimmy Smits (Senator Bail Organa), Samuel L. Jackson (Mace Windu), Harrison Ford (Han Solo), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia Organa) and Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian). Among the characters spotlighted on the cover are Yoda, Darth Vader, C-3PO (Anthony Daniels), R2-D2, Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), Jar Jar Binks and General Grievous. |

Pretty sweet! For a second, I was thinking that it was just an Ep3 cover, and thought, cool, Liam Neeson's in this one too! But then, I read the caption and saw that it was much more, so much more, than just a cool Ep3 cover! Just might have to pick this one up, and then start a quest to have them all sign it.

We got ours in the mail on Saturday. The article was very interesting. George said that Episode III isn't your average Star Wars movie.
...It will probably get a PG-13 rating

So if you take the greatness of the first trilogy (ANH, ESB, ROTJ), and the sub greatness of the second trilogy (TPM, AOTC), and average them out, then ROTS will be better than that average? That still makes it lower than the original triliogy...
Or does he mean something else?

He means it by the Darkness that this movie will have other than the others.
Lucas expressed why he thinks people like the OT than the PT
