Summary
A graceful skyscraper twinkles in the evening light of Coruscant.
Guests
Notes
Film
- Wipe to Coruscant apartment complex.
- First appearance of Hayden Christensen's Anakin.
Podcast
- Lack of applause shots in AOTC as opposed to in the Original Trilogy.
- This scene in the elevator was added much later, after the first cut of the film was already complete. It was supposed to establish Anakin and Obi-Wan's relationship.
- The scene is awkward and forced, which is odd because Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor had been acting together for the whole movie - shouldn't they have developed a rapport by now?
- Jedi fashion.
- Rigorous casting process for the Role of Anakin

- Anakin was born 41 years BBY, and the events of this movie take place in 22 BBY, so he is 19 years old.
