This made me fucking CRINGE!!!Greg Tito said:
The worst part? I could totally see Lucas doing something like that. It's completely feasible, given his track record.
Sad. Glad I didn't bother pre-ordering.. I'll still with my classic versions of IV-VI on DVD.
painful
I would say the only good thing to come out of 1-3 was the plinkett/red letter media reviews
no they are worse

The problem is that George obviously wants the version currently representing his "definitive version" to be the only one available. I'm sure he would erase any previous version from our minds if he could. Anyway, all versions prior to the Blu-rays are now discontinued I believe, so you're going to have to deal with the issue of limited supply when trying to find copies of the original unaltered films. At least with other films with numerous cuts such as Blade Runner, you don't have the creators basically trying to force you to only watch one version of the movie. If this weren't the case with Star Wars I really wouldn't be upset.Littaly said:
Well you do realize that back in the 70s and 80s they didn't have the proper technology to have Vader say "NOOOOOO!", but he always wanted to add it in. He has also stated that his next move will be to revamp the movies with even more CGI such as he alwasy wanted to replace the Imperial destroyers with Twinkies and the Death Star was actually suppose to look like a giant testicle. Lucas also never liked the idea of FTL so instead of having the ships launch into hyperdrive he will add in CGI space oxen to pull ships around.Greg Tito said:
You know I really start to doubt if George Lucas has ANYTHING to do with the three "classic" movies. For example this scene or the opening of Wpisode 4....these scenes were great, because NOONE said a word and everything was transpired from a visual standpoint. It was awesome because we actually DIDN'T see his facial expression but knew of his suffering and his internal conflict...or at least hoped for it...no we know in advance...thnaks Georgie AND NOW STEP BACK AND HAND THESE RIGHTS OVER TO SOMEONE WHO TREATS THESE GENUINE PIECES OF HISTORY WITH RESPECT!
I heard they were making a movie about that. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BMgegut3UM]kickyourass said:
George Lucas simply cannot surprise me anymore. Once all of his money and creative control troubles vanished, the artist inside of him died. Such a shame since he used to be a true visionary. At least Star Wars has become far too big for all the stupid reediting to destroy.
I'm hoping for a short release of the original episodes 4-6 on DVD, unedited with all this crap, so that I can show my children the wonder that was the original Star Wars.
I've refused to buy Star Wars ever since the Greedo incident; Han shooting first was a fundamental part of his character, which they opted to write out for no apparent reason. Fuck that.

I hope he goes full cheese and literally copy/pastes the exact same "NOOOOOOO" from ROTS...
Don't half-ass it George. Make sure it sucks properly.

Dear George,
Do you honestly think that making this change will change anything about the film. No, it wont, so why bother. Why keep going back and making pointless changes no one will care about or should care about. You made three good films stop trying to tinker with perfection, you'll only risk ruining it.
Dear Internet,
Do you honestly think that making this change will change anything about the film. No, it wont, so why bother caring. Get over it.

Oh why oh why did they got to make that nooo canon now??? That is one of the worst thing Darth Vader had ever did in the entire film series!
All creators feel that their work is incomplete and could have been better with a few tweaks, but they recognize that once they release it into the world, it is no longer theirs to mold. Like a child.Littaly said:
Few creators besides George Lucas are arrogant enough to keep going back and "improving" things, especially when he had very little to do with what made the original trilogy great. He seems to have convinced himself that it was entirely him, though.
