This was mentioned on another board I frequesnt, and thought it might be good conversation here.
Of course, no one missed seeing Anakin's yellowish eyes in the teaser trailer. They reminded me of Maul's eyes, and the Emperor's. So, this leads me to ask: does the Dark Side change one's eye color?

It may be a guaranteed in the canon that eye change is definite...
In the RPG, it is a definite possibility but not definite...
The coolness is that Anakin's eyes mimic Maul's which seems somewhat fitting.

I for one think that the 'Darth Maul' eyes on Anakin make him look a heck of a lot more threatening than he ever looked in Episode II, but that's me.

I like it. Looks nice and evil. And Vader DOES have red eyes on him helmet in the OT. You just can't see it very well on film.

I didn't really take his anger seriously when he had the padawan buzz cut and regular eyes in AOTC... but in that trailer, wow... creepy dude

Well those are just what was needed to show just how bad he's become. Have your seen Darth Sidious, he looks even meaner than in ROTJ. With the red lightsaber and all. About the yellow eyes, Palpatine changes form, as we can see in the trailer, so perhaps they don't always have their yellow eyes. It can reflect an excess of rage...?

I once read some where that the use of the darkside was what turned the eyes red and yellow. But this subject brings up the question, why were Anakins eyes back to normal in the ROTJ?

Well when Luke removes the helmet , he faces Anakin and not Darth Vader, Anakin has no more hatred in him, he is at peace, that would be my explanation...

That sounds about right.

Yeah I guess that is the only theory that will work.
