Hmm, I can't tell, because I saw it in german *g*. And Qui-Gons and Obi-Wans voice are not that different in this version. Qui-Gon Jinn's voice. They used the syncronisation voices from Trainspotting and Rob Roy. It was clearly the voice of the guy...  [Read More]

Right before Obi is talking to Yoda in the kid's training room, he walks down a long corridor in the Jedi temple. If you look closely, you will see Howard the duck (from Lucas' Howard the Duck movie) in a Jedi robe. Pretty weird. by the way: Was som...  [Read More]

Qui-gonn's voice is apparently in there a bit more too - I have no idea where, but apparently it reveals some plot points for episode III. It can be heard during the cut to Yoda, after Anakin starts berserking. He yells: "Anakin, no!" An...  [Read More]

Taken from a Lucas quote at "TheForce.net": All dead Jedi can reappear as ghosts, although those, who give up their mortal shell willingly can do this far more easy than the others. The technique to give up the own body is tought to Obi...  [Read More]

After Anakin killed the Tusken tribe, there was a cut to Yoda's face and we heard Qui-Gon Jinn screaming Anakin, no!. (It could have been someone else, but I dare to doubt that the Tusken chief would scream: Anakin, no!)...  [Read More]
