Pablo Hidalgo - Lucasfilm's marketing man on the set releasing tidbits to anxious fans on Hyperspace, today enjoyed his celebrity with an exclusive online chat. There's tons to read on the official site for Star Wars and here's a few highlights as well:
? Some shots of the last ten minutes of the movie have already been filmed.
? Pablo believes the script is very efficient and fast-moving. All of the questions about the prequels he had in his mind were answered in the script.
? Reading the scripted scenes is nothing compared to the impact of actually seeing it in action and come to life before the camera. Even seemingly small scenes in the script proved to have real impact.
? When we hear about the script having pages added to its total length, it is often the addition of a only few line(s) on addendum pages.
? Yoda's scenes have not been in the set diaries due to the fact that Yoda is really brought to life in post-production by ILM and Frank Oz.
(spoilers) ? The lightsabers used by Obi-Wan and Anakin are ones we have seen before.
? Regarding Ian's intensity in playing Palpatine in Ep3, "Ian doesn't hold anything back."
? Anakin will be seen using a blue lightsaber (seen in Ep4) and a red lightsaber.
