a.		After initial test audiences had mixed reactions to the ending, a new version of Will and Violas final scene was filmed in November 1998 (only weeks before release), which expanded upon the previously brief Twelfth Night projections in order to better handle their parting.

b.		Safety divers swam in with scuba regulators to allow them to breathe without having to surface. These scenes were shot in a huge purpose-built tank with a blue-screen background.

At one point during training he inadvertently signaled that he was drowning, sending the crew into a huge panic to bring him back up to surface.
c.		The first draft of the script also explained the mystery surrounding Anakins conception. In the confrontation scene between Anakin and Palpatine (where Palpatine confesses to Anakin he is Darth Sidious), he would also explain that he used the power of the Force to will the midichlorians to start the cell divisions that created Anakin. This explanation was later deemed unnecessary by George Lucas and subsequently cut.

However, his friends told him that he had written the same screenplay twice.
