If the story was only about the rise of the Empire and the Anakin/Vader thing was just a subplot then maybe... but the story *is* about Anakin becoming Darth Vader and the bad things that happen to th

Someone mentioned that in a post and it really is an interesting plot twist. Just think, in the climax of ROTJ: We see grandfather, father and son. Now there's a trilogy.

The story is about Skywalkers. There would be no Skywalkers in your version of Episode IV. No plot either. We don't need to see any of that stuff. It is all explained in Star Wars

No,this is well established clashe. Obi-Wan's explation is GL using litterairy duck tape to cover a plot hole. OF course 'Now before I destroy you....' can only be properly said by someone with a ha

It's just speculation. It's just one way Lucas can address open plot holes. There are are probably a multitude of possibilities to address these things in Ep III.

He IS making it up as he goes along. He only had some major plot points hashed out until he started writing the scripts for the prequels.

In Episode IV, Ben tells Luke 'I thought I could train him as well as Yoda. I was wrong'. In Episode II, we learn that Dooku was Yoda's Padawan. So Yoda trained him and he ended up going to the dark
