Potential spoilers ahead, though rest assured that I haven't been reading anything on theforce.net (can't stand the place) and I'm just making theories here.
huh. I watched that DVD. I don't remember anything different about that. I'll have to check it when I get home.
If the line hasn't been removed, Padme definitely dies, though not necessarily on screen (but if not that soon). She died when Leia was very young. Leiahas memories, but they're very vague. I mean, I guess Padme doesn't have to die on screen, but there's too much potential for between the movie episodes with ANakin knowing that Padme is out there somewhere (though he's surprised to learn about his son's existence, if I remember correctly, in Ep V, so he wouldn't necessarily know about kids -- explaining why the heck he just doesn't check his half-brother's estate just out of curiosity to see if his kids are there). Either she dies or they convince Anakin she's dead. Which, now that I think about it, sounds more likely if the kids have to be born still and Leia grow up enough to know something of her.
Alternate theory of the above: Leia doesn't get to be of any age to have memories before Padme dies, but the Force helps her remember even though she was an infant when her mother died.
Questions: why do the twins need to be separated? Are they worried that Luke will grow up like dear old dad?
man, I never would have tried to piece this episode together when I was younger. I think it was my Darth Vader as Faust paper that did it to me. When I first wrote that, I had to piece together what happens in eps 2 and 3, based entirely on Yoda's comment about "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering." I was pretty much right. Anakin's fear for his mother led him to anger: at Obi-Wan, at the Tuskens, and that resulted in hatred, particularly of the tuskens, which drove him to murder an entire tribe -- definitely suffering. That hate just grows and mutates into a lust for power ("I will be powerful enough to stop people from dying") which are played together by Palpatine, turning ANakin into Darth Vader. Lucas has been telling us all along what's going to happen. I just want details and to watch things blow up in the mean time.
