2 Sets from the OT in SW III
« on: March 11, 2003, 01:51 PM »
On StarWars.com, it was posted that "In addition to the Jedi Council chambers, the Senate Rotunda and Palpatine's office, two environments from the original trilogy are being carefully recreated for this earlier era in Star Wars history, much like the Lars Homestead was faithfully reconstructed for Episode II."

Any educated guesses as to what they could be?

Ones that come to mind for me are:

Obi's house
Jabba's palace
Yoda's hut
possibly the Cantina.

Hard to say. I'm going with the Cantina & Obi's house. Though there are many that can been done. Will be interesting to see. So many things can be done with Mos Eisley. All the creatures will produce more action figures. More action figures will produce hard to get items & so forth. ;)

Sounds like one of the sets is from ROTJ and the other I would guess is from ANH reading between the lines here  

Quote
"It's always quite interesting going back to those historic elements of the saga," says Bocquet. "I think these ones are a little bit easier than the homestead, because they're studio-based and not location-based. They have quite precise drawings that we managed to extricate from the archives, although the archive isn't quite as full for A New Hope as it is for Empire and Jedi, simply because nobody knew what the films were going to become! We're working from the few drawings they do have, plus the stills and looking at the films, and breaking things down and trying to reproduce it."

While there is a sense of nostalgia in recreating environments from the original trilogy, for one of the sets it's particularly personal for Bocquet. "It's quite interesting for me, because I was on Jedi years ago, as a draftsman. So, occasionally some of these drawings that come through are actually mine! All the Art Department suddenly scours around my drawings to see how good they were at that age, but I do stress to them that I was only a junior at that point."

So I'd say Ben's hut is a good guess and from ROTJ probably Yoda's Hut (although that would be both ESB and ROTJ)?

TOugh call...I'd love to see the Cantina and Jabba's Palace again ;)

Bens house is a good bet and maybe Yavin4 setting up the rebel base?

If the cantina was one of the sets, it would be a sensible setting for the Chewie cameo. :)

I wouldn't mind seeing Darth Vader emerge from his meditation chamber for the first time.

And the other set will be the dark cave on Naboo... I mean Dagobah.

Heck if I know what the sets could be?  Not really much to go on except at least one set will be from Jedi.

I would definitely think that Ben House would not be one of them unless he is doing it in a sound stage...he filmed the last portion of e3 when they filmed in the desert and he stated that it does not make sense to come back and shoot only one scene...so Tatooine may be out entirely!!!

My guesses are Yoda's hut as he goes into hiding and perhaps maybe the rebel base on Yavin as some one had already suggested.

I'm curious if this includes the homestead or not.

I'm going to go with jabba's palace and the yavin rebel base.  I think it would take too much movie time to establish obi acquiring a house on tatooine. same goes for yodas crib...

It has been confirmed that we will NOT see Jabba or any type of cantina in E3.
I have heard that there is a Star Destroyer Bridge and Death Star type Meeting room with round table as seen in E4.

Yes it has been confirmed.  We also won't see any Gungans besides Jar Jar.
Watto will not be in the film.  There are no Kaminoians.  There are no new female Sith in the film.  Dexter Jettster is not in EP3.  

More info here at www.theforce.net - Or you can PM me send me your e-mail and I can email you all the Q&A, that I got  from the Force.net.
