Maybe this has already been discussed here or elsewhere, but I can't find it. I've seen "Revenge of the Sith" twice (the second time with my two young boys).
I noticed several homages to other movies hidden in the film. ("Titanic" when the spaceship breaks in two; "Tarzan" when the Wookies swing on a vine; "Frankenstein" when Darth Vader rises off the table; "Raiders of the Lost Ark" when Yoda casually knocks over a couple of knife-wielding goons.)
There's a scene when all of the Jedi are being assassinated that they show a very short scene on an otherwise never-seen planet of the assassination of a female Jedi.
It's located on a very lush, almost cartoonishly colorful planet. The second time around it really reminded me of the "E.T. Adventure" ride at Universal when we get to see E.T.'s home planet. Was George Lucas paying homage to his old buddy Steven Spielberg, or am I just imagining things?
