Bat22 Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 The Emperor's Crimson Guard in ROTJ were definitely eye-catching, and the EU's miniseries Crimson Empire provided a great anti-hero in Kir Kanos. Now that we've seen Palpatine's guard go from blue (TPM) to red (AOTC), I hope we'll see some action in the third film. Maybe they'll be in the way of Obi-Wan or slaughter the blue guards of the senate...
Darth Darthy Posted April 1, 2004 Posted April 1, 2004 They are in the film and pablo implied (to my mind at least) there's a bit of a scuffle or Force push "get outta my way" kinda thang going on. Not a full blown action scene at any rate.
leXX Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 This belongs in the spoilers forum. *moves thread* What's your source for that info out of interest DD? I love the Royal Guard. It's a shame they haven't featured more in the films so far. I really hope we get to see them in action in Ep3.
Darth Darthy Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 Erm, my source is Pablo like I said. And he said they see some action but not enough to warrent what he would call a fight scene. Which fits in perfectly with Mace and the boys having a little visit with Palpatine. "Hello sir, we were cut out of that Darth Vader Deathstar scene in Return of the Jedi and our union said we could stand here and try to reinact it." "Move it you Motherf**ker". If you have Hyperspace then check out his chats on the forum. Nothing of this has been released in the spoiler community cause we don't have the script. Yet. But it's almost time...
Surfnshannon Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 lexx check in Hyperspace in the Hyperspace Forum under Pablo's Drop Box. He has a lot of really great info in there.
Scrodo_Saggins Posted April 2, 2004 Posted April 2, 2004 i think i read once that the emperors royal guard were the creme of the creme of stormtroopers, some were even force sensative. Did anyone else buy the royal guard action figure? for some reason they come with a stick with electrical boltz that attach to it, now thats something i'd like to see in the next movie

dark jedi 8 Posted April 3, 2004 Posted April 3, 2004 Did anyone else buy the royal guard action figure? for some reason they come with a stick with electrical boltz that attach to it, now thats something i'd like to see in the next movie they added that for "play value" for the kids. i was pretty mad when they didn't use the force pikes in the movie b/c the action figures made it seem like they would. damn hasbro. anyway, i also hope they use them in the next movie, it'd be really cool.
Poggle Posted April 3, 2004 Posted April 3, 2004 Yep look cool gotta be in there even if their just cannon fodder it would be worth it
Isair Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 Yeah would be interesting to see these highly trained soldiers fighting or do anything really.
ronbrothers Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 I sincerely hope we get to see them in action. Perhaps in the scene where Mace confronts Palpy about being Darth Sidiuos. Or when Yoda fights Palpatine.
joesdomain Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 I do remember seeing a photo or something on the starwars.com during that was taken during production that shows 4 or more emperor's royal guards entering a room.
flamefls Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 i hope they slip with their forcepikes and accidently kill jar jar ...accidently of course lol...
fuzzyfreaker Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 The Crimson Guard? Rrrriiiiiggghhhhtttt... Anyway, they have never done anything, maybe they are just like cerimonial (and it's midnight i can't type)
