What we've got so far:

Word       Character      Product
---------  ----------     -------
Destroyed  Darth Maul     Mt. Dew
Future     Jar Jar        Mt. Dew
Menace     Valorum
The        C-3P0
But        Amidala        Pepsi
New        Anakin
Lurks      Sebulba        Pepsi
May        Mace Windu     Mt. Dew
Nearby     Padme Naberrie Diet Pepsi

Guessed message (assumed words in <>):

<Darth> <Maul> may <be> destroyed, but the Phantom Menace still lurks
nearby.

I don't think so,
you forgot the words "New" and "future". And Phantom is not on your list.
This gives, something like:

<Darth> <Maul> may <be> destroyed, but the New Future Menace lurks nearby.

Seems more likely, though new and future are a bit redundant.

How about "The Menace may be destroyed, but the new Darth Maul lurks in the
nearby future." I know it sounds weird, but Maul didn't bleed when Obi-Wan
chopped him in half. I'm thinking that he is a droid. Maybe?

Interesting idea, but I think GL was just being a little PC and not showing a
lot of gore.
And I swear that when OWK slices DM in half, there is a brief flash of red on
the screen - like a subliminal suggestion of blood spatter.

Besides, doesn't the "Phantom Menace" refer to Senator Palpatine and his secret
life?
