With DISCLOSURE DAY out this Friday, let’s look back at Steven Spielberg’s overlooked contributions to REVENGE OF THE SITH you may not know about….
Spielberg served as a guest director and contributed to the film's pre-visualization stage. He visually storyboard several key sequences, including the Order 66 montage, the Yoda vs Palpatine duel, and the Mustafar duel.
Spielberg suggested obscuring the on-screen Jedi deaths to make them more tragic. Specifically, he came up with the idea of having the camera move up behind a big plant so Aayla Secura’s actual death is hidden from the audience’s view.
Spielberg also reportedly conceptualized the "I have the high ground” sequence during Obi-Wan and Anakin’s duel.
Arguably the greatest director of all time had a huge impact on one of the greatest Star Wars movies of all time.

Ditch the blueprint of how you were gonna get your big break in Hollywood & just live your life, enjoy it, be with friends n family while you create stories you love and that challenge you. Throw darts. Give it your all when opportunities present themselves. Be kind to yourself.
I plan on making movies the old fashioned way in the era of A.I. My dream is to be a filmmaker, and a screenwriter of movies. Movies with actors, that shoot on location, that have hundreds of people collaborating, creating every little prop, practical light, choosing wardrobe.

Acostumbrados estamos y nos parece normal. Pero reflexionemos un momento. Tenemos a un ex presidente adicto a X, prófugo de la justicia, que pierde la cabeza cada vez que un narcotraficante es detenido. Da órdenes. Sugiere procedimientos. Hace de campanero.
In the movie industry, you either wait for an opportunity to come and your moment. Or you create your own opportunity and you try and pave a way nobody has paved before. that's it. That's the tweet.
