Kurt;

I agree with you that these images are certainly fakes, but I have to ask what you're illustrating with the zoomed-in image.

The only thing I notice about it is that there's a lot of "mosquito noise" around the letters — this is just an artifact of the JPEG compression, and would show up whether the text was "pasted in" or not.

Or is there something else I'm missing?

Look at the listing for Chapter 47:

"Well Done, Lord Tyranus."

The actual line in the film is "Welcome home, Lord Tyranus."

And where is Obi-Wan in the insert art?

It's a fake.

Also, the line in the chapter stops reads "This Party Is Over" but in the movie it's "This Party's Over"..

Just a minor thing but seems clear to me its just some guys creation.

"Across the Stars" wasn't just written for the music video, the music video was a compilation of music from the movie, not just that song.
Contrary to popular belief, "Across the Stars" is NOT the name of the love theme. According to the soundtrack, it is called "Love Theme from Attack of the Clones". "Across the Stars" IS the compilation that Williams put together specifically for the Across the Stars music video.

Ok, I was finally able to download the insert. And I must say, if this is real, I'm excited! This totally beats what we got for Episode I, with or without a one hour documentary!
Anyway, if this is real, all these cool new documentaries would take up space that a one-hour documentary would need. But if they're as good as they sound, it's justifiable.
I can't wait! It should be any day before we get a formal announcment from Lucasfilm. Keep your eyes on Starwars.com!

It's fake, I'm really sure it is. Why would this site get the scans??? Why not a popular site like TFN or Bits?

Considering the disc is rumored to be released before the end of the year now is about the time that details should be coming out. If the studio was intentionally releasing this info to the public then they would have chosen a better known forum than latinoreview.com but if some janitor saw it on his bosses desk while cleaning up this is where it would turn up.

I beleive it's fake. I only just looked now that Digitalbits put the information out. I clicked on this thread yesterday, saw the link URL, and figured it was fake then.

Looking at the images, I really feel that some of the wording on the features is awkward. Particularly on the R2-D2 trailer. The headline says the trailer is included, but the text seems to describe the whole mockumentary. I also don't buy the break in the chapter list, nor the lineup of light sabers that causes the break. The lineup looks closer to the alterred images of Braveheart we saw in the false trailer some time ago.

I don't beleive it.

I do suspect specs will be released when AOTC hits second run theaters, or soon thereafter. At latest by September 1.

Another point that makes it potentially fake, look at Chapter 48, the quote there is "Begun the clone war has". The actual quote is "Begun this clone war has".

Actually, I believe the line IS "Begun the clone war has" in the movie. In the trailer, it was a little different, "Begun THIS clone war has".

That line of lightsabers is official artwork used on international posters and Starwars.com:
