Taking this from "A Guide to the Star Wars Universe" by Bill Slavicsek...2nd edition...page 47. (This book was written after the author spoke with two ladies from Lucasfilm. I know this because he acknowledges them at the beginning of the book.)
"When Kenobi saw what had become of Anakin, he tried to disuade him and draw him back from the dark side.
According the the ROTJ novel, discussion turned to battle, and the two fought fiercely. It ended when the man who had been Anakin Skywalker fell into a pit of molten lava."
Its right there and straightforward.

Well, George Lucas doesn't always follow the books. For example, according to the book, Anakin and Obi Wan are brothers.
It's GL's Universe and he will do what he wants with it.Yo momma. That's right, I said "yo momma".

Yes I agree with Rogue II. The books don't really mean a thing. Except maybe the novle of ANH simply becasue GL wrote it. I've recently read it and coudln't find anything that contradicted the movies. The ROTJ book was written by someone else. Sure at the time it was written the part about Obi Wan and Anaken's fight was probally in the movie, but we know GL is constantly rewriting. So, he wrote that part out of the movie, and may have something else in store for this climax. It is possible that it could still happen, but at this point it is still speculation and rumor.
If you want to find it you have to shop.

OB-1 and Owen Larrs were brothers, in the book, not Anakin and OB-1.Originally posted by Rogue II

Just the facts!!!!
And if you have read the books of the OT, it does indeed mention the whole LAVA thing.
I'm not saying that's what's going to be seen in the movie, but it does happen in the books.
This is straight from the ROTJ novel. When Vader had turned back to the light, just after Luke removed his helmet and mask.
....and this memory brought a wave of other memories with it. Memories of brotherhood, and home. His dear wife. The freedom of deep space. Obi-Wan.
Obi-Wan, his friend...and how that friendship had turned. Turned, he knew not how-but got injected, nonetheless, with some uncaring virulence that festered, until.....hold. These were memories he wanted none of, not now. Memories of molten lava crawling up his back....no.
This boy had pulled him from that pit-here, now, with this act. This boy was good."" I think I have the SITH sense...I see DARTH people!"

Obi Wan and Owen could still turn out to be brothers, couldn't they?

YES, yes they could turn out to be brothers. I doubt it will turn out that way, but you never really know.
That would still make OB-1 and Anakin stepbrothers, and I don't see it happening that way.

Well, I don't think so. R2 comes up to them at Shmi's funeral and says he's got a message from Obi Wan Kenobi, and no one except Padme' and Anaken react. Plus, his name is Kenobi, not Lars
.
I always thought Obi Wan would turn out to be Beru's brother. She could of been Beru Kenobi befor she was married, but that's doesn't seem to be the case
These are all valid points reffering to the books. Still we all know that they don't have to happen. Smart money is on them happening, but it's still just speculation. Heck, in TPM novel Anaken helps save the life of a Tuskin Raider and we know that never happened int he movie. So, things change in time. Especially in 20 years time. We'll just have to wait and see

I think this whole Lava pit might be nice but is unlikely... my guess is that he'll fall into some engine kind of thing...
Of course most people would like the lava pit idea... i don't think it's bad but my guess is that GL will modify the EU "knowledge" into a whole new film "canon"

DarthSetnom, yeah you're probally right. One never knows what may be future "canon".
I like your engine kind of thing, theory, sounds good, but I'm leaning more towards the molten metal/chemical vat idea. Opposed to actual Lava." I think I have the SITH sense...I see DARTH people!"
