My RotJ thoughts...(taken on a notepad while watching the movie)
Sorry if these seem a little random, but here you go (this could be multi-entry depending on how this is).
"Strong I am, but not that strong."
-Yoda, referring to never dying.
Wouldn't that mean that Anakin was turned to the dark side and just never obtained the knowledge from the Emperer/Sidious, if Yoda admitted that it is possible with enough strength? Is it possible that Luke will never die, learning that power? If so, would he use it or die to be with Mara, Ben, etc in the Force?

"Your last test is to fight Darth Vader."
-Yoda, referring to Luke's Knighthood.
Isn't that a little Sith-like, even for a sword of the Jedi? That might have been a final test in the means that it would prove that Luke was willing to think about more than his family.

"Once you go down that dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny."
-Yoda, referring to Darth Vaders' redemption.
Was that an opinion thought fact, or was that what Yoda wanted to believe so that it wouldn't be his fault that Anakin/DV turned to the dark side? I believe that it was the second, and Yoda was merely talking to soothe his own conscience. Blame Star Wars on trial though, it bashes the OT Jedi by calling Yoda a disgusting green lying oven mitt, and Obi-Wan some stuff that I know would be censored, so I won't say.

Next...Endor was referred to as a moon. As a moon of what? Is it like Yavin and just a moon of a gas giant? This isn't as much of a blog statement as a question...Please try to enlighten me!

Darth Bane and Palpatine...and Luke. When Palpatine said that Luke was going to join them, was he thinking that it was because they would be breaking the rule of two, or would he be discarding Vader? I believe he would have been discarding Vader. Throughout the PT, he is always getting new apprentices, and always aiming for the Next Best Thing. If we are to believe Lumiya in the Legacy of the Force books, Darth Vader could never harness the complete power of the dark side, because he was half mechanical. Luke was still partially mechanical (with his hand) but he was more human than his cyborg-like father.

I know I say this at the risk of offending the big time bloggers who hit on Luke, but not only does Luke throw like a girl, he fights like a street thug or a bar brawler. Watching him swing that lightsaber is like watching someone come and attack you with a baseball bat! There is a complete lack of the finesse that we see in the fighting of Anakin, Obi-Wan, Mace, Maul, Qui-Gon, Yoda, or any of the other PT duelists of great renown.

Was the Emporer losing his power along with his youth? In RotS, the lightening storm that we see him unleash upon Mace is...well...AMAZING! It was a true display of power (both digital and Force). Compared to that, Palpatine might as well have come up to Luke and started smacking him!

Why was there a celebration in Mos Eisley at the end of the movie? As was pointed out in the PT, the Outer Rim (and Tatooine is the outer rim of the Outer Rim) is outside of NR, and I figured Imperial, control.

And, last but not least (actually it almost is least)...
What happens to Force Ghosts? Do they enter the Force as if it is some kind of Limbo, and materialize at will where they want to? Well, if you actually read through this whole thing, I applaud you. At the very least, you have proven you don't have ADD. I hope that this was a thought prevoking experience for all of us, and not just me.
