Nerdy post alert.

In a forum I shan't name, there is a thread that asks people for one thing they'd change about Star Wars. I bimble in to read. I know this is a bit geeky but thought I'd ask a film maker forum the question:

Is the Vader/Emperor showdown at the end near perfect cinema (my opinion Yes) or should they have a had a light saber smackdown like in Revenge of the Sith?

If you were writing the end of that movie, if you had the task of penning the redemtion of Vader, what would you do?

I honestly think its one of the near perfect moments in Star wars in a very imperfect film.

Be interested to hear some thoughts.

Heres the scene to refresh you.

(Note I've just been subjected to the fan edits where they drop in flashbacks. Why? Why do people need to be told how to feel? Admittedly the music is doing that to a degree, but sheesh)
