Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
ThisStar state of war : Episode III - Revenge of the Sithdecision was a major mistake — and nowStar Warscan never make it . Revenge of the Sithis a all-important compass point intheStar Warstimelinebecause so many key events take office in the movie and because it had to bridge over everything that happened in the prequels and the originalStar Warstrilogy . It fulfill many of these outcome bright , which is among the reasons it ’s considered one ofStar Wars’best moving-picture show .
Yet , not everything done inRevenge of the Sithwas the right-hand call . One misunderstanding in picky was not only unsatisfying inRevenge of the Sithbut also created a major plot hole in the original trilogy . Unfortunately , it ’s too late forStar Warsto ever fix this misstep , and it ’s one of my biggest complaints aboutStar Warsmovies and TV show .
Padmé Almost Outlived The End Of Revenge Of The Sith
George Lucas Considered A Different End For Padmé
In early plans , George Lucas was choke to have Padmé Amidala stay active for a few years after giving birthing to the counterpart . In this translation of the story , Padmé would have give birthing to Luke and Leia , as she did inRevenge of the Sith , but she would have pull through childbirth and croak to subsist with Leia and Bail on Alderaan for a few years . The twin therefore would still have been sort out , with Luke still going to Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen on Tatooine for the original trilogy to make sense .
This version of the taradiddle would still have made unadulterated sense — in fact , it would have made much more sense than the actualRevenge of the Sithending . Obi - Wan take Luke to Tatooine would still have been logical , as he would have been the only person Padmé trusted with her son . Padmé also could have been the one to recommend that Beru and Owen take Lukebecause she know them fromStar warfare : Episode II - Attack of the Clones . It arguably would have made much more sense for Beru and Owen to be choose by Padmé in this scenario .
This version of the tale would still have made staring sense — in fact , it would have made much more sentience than the actualRevenge of the Sithending .
Padmé Living Would Have Explained So Much
Instead, It Created Brand-New (Confusing) Plot Holes
Had George Lucas keep this original programme inRevenge of the Sith , not only would this have made the prequel trilogy well , but it also would have avoided some truly confusing secret plan holes the existent ending induce . One ofthe biggestStar Warsplot holescreated by Padmé ’s death inRevenge of the Sithwas the fact that Leia take she remembered her mother inReturn of the Jedi . Yes , Leia only remembered minor details , like her female parent being beautiful but sad , but that is still unmatched view Leia was just hour sure-enough when Padmé choke .
While Star Wars : Episode III - Revenge of the Sith is an first-class movie , the manner of Padme ’s death was nevertheless a major misunderstanding in Star Wars .
Many have argued that Leia was capable to remember these detail about Padmé through the Force , but that does n’t really explain this plot hole either , yield Luke had no memory of Padmé but was much more in tune with the Force . Perhaps the oddest part of this patch kettle of fish is that it did n’t have to live in the first place — Lucas had options , let in his original plan for Padmé , that could have quickly explained why Leia remembered her but Luke did n’t . In that sense , Lucas ' modification of heart about theRevenge of the Sithending in reality created the game jam .

This ending would have addressed other issues withRevenge of the Sithas well . In fact , this plot line would have resolve yet another confusing aspect of Leia ’s breeding . Had Padmé gone with Leia and Bail at the end ofRevenge of the Sithand break down a few years afterwards , it would have made sentience for bond and Breha Organa to then take on Leia . In the real ending , it ’s always felt a second leftover that Bail cursorily agrees to espouse Leia without even mouth to Breha about it first .
It ’s always felt a bit odd that Bail quickly concord to adopt Leia without even speak to Breha about it first .
Had George Lucas Kept This Story, It Would Have Fixed His Biggest Padmé Mistake
Padmé’s Death Was So Disappointing, But It Didn’t Have To Be
Had Padmé pull through childbirth and gone on to live with Leia on Alderaan for a few years , this would also have fixed how thoroughly disappointing her death was , which remains one of my biggest complaint aboutStar state of war . Padmé was one of the bravest and most intelligent character in the prequel trilogy , and it makes no sense that , after devote birth to her baby , she would simply miss her will to be . This has also led to speculation that Padmé ' die of a humbled heart , ' which , althoughStar Warshas never confirm this , is such a ill service to her theatrical role .
