Is there anything after/during the credits?
Also, I think there were 3 Falcons in Ep. 2.

Jeremy Bullock (OT Boba Fett) is the Tantavie IV pilot in Ep. III. Look for him in the pilot chair on the left side of the cockpit in some scenes toward the end of the film. I think it's when Bail, Yoda and Obi-Wan are returning to deactivate the Jedi recall beacon signal.

I remember hearing someone called "Captain Antilles." Unless it's a common name, he is probably Wedge Antilles' father.
*edit* I'm watching ANH, and caught this line of dialogue:
C-3PO: He says he's the property of Obi-Wan Kenobi, a resident of
these parts. And it's a private message for him. Quite frankly, sir I
don't know what he's talking about. Our last master was Captain
Antilles, but with what we've been through, this little R2 unit has
become a bit eccentric.
So looks like the Captain Antilles in ROTS at the very least comes in possession of 3PO and R2, and is more than likely Wedge's father. A double shout-out to the OT.

I'm a huge fan of Tarkin. I wish there was more of him in ep III.

On the mural in the background of the scene where Palpatine reveals himself to Anakin (not in the pedophile way, mind you), there is a carving or painting of something that resembles the head of the creature from Alien. Actually it looks like two Aliens looking at each other. It's too blurry to make out details, but the HR Giger phalic shape seems to be there.

Also, Chewbacca was there, still being played by Peter Mayhew. Dunno if that counts.

Did not see that Falcon the 1st at the 12:15am showing, but I saw later that night at the 8:10pm showing. Told all my friends about it and that they should look in the lower right part of the screen (inbetween the right corner and the middle of the scree), but none of the guys saw it - but 2 of the girls saw it.

How exactly are Chewbacca, Wedge Antille's father, and Tarkin cameo's? Um they fit into the story right where they are supposed to like Luke & leia. They all have their parts. I think a few need to know what a "cameo" is:
A brief appearance of a prominent actor, as in a single scene of a motion picture
Chewbacca, R2, Threepio, Tarkin, Captain Antilles, Owen & Beru, etc. are not. They are characters in a story.
I was expecting to see Chewbacca get captured though.

Uhh... Okay. Might want to read the first post before going off on people not understanding what a cameo is.
Take note of the subject... "Cameos etc" Take note of the OP's post. "Was there any other 'fun' stuff to spot in the movie that I might have missed?" I think a few need to re-read the OP.

Yeah, you're right. Been too long since they've released an EU-post ROTJ novel, that slipped my mind. Still, a nice tie in with ANH, Captain Antilles being the one Vader interrogates and strangles, in addition to being the droids "owners" at the time.
