Just saw the last scene of Starwars VI: Return of the Jedi.  I just noticed that they edited in the gay anakin with the long hair from episode 3 as the ghost.  That was pretty stupid.

That's all, I know it's boring.  To liven things up, anyone else like Starwars?

Lucas is an idiot.  He has to keep going back to screw with the 3 original movies to try and bring them up to the level of SUCK the 3 new ones have.

Star Wars.  And I like Star Wars.  But mostly the stuff that has nothing or little to do with Lucas.

And even with the "updating," ESB is the best of the three (or six).

I've been a Starwars fan since time began. My son got interrested when they started advertising for Starwars Clone wars. So I picked up a boxed set for him to watch and just about died when I saw that part. Lucus is a twit .

It really pissed me off that he did that, he has almost completely ruined the franchise with all of his changes.. I still prefer to watch the laserdisc version of the originals.

Well, that sucks. Now I can't even necessarily pretend those last three (Episodes 1-3) movies don't exist. "Return of the Jedi" was my favorite Star Wars movie.

It is inaccurate to say 'Han shot first'.



Saying he shot first implies that Greedo fired, that is not the case.

I think new movies could have been made correctly. Instead they seemed to market Episode I towards the elementary school crowd (Jar Jar Binks, Anakin), Episode II was for 16 year old girls, and Episode III seemed like a parody of what Episode III should have been.

They enhanced/edited the original 3 before the 'new' ones came out, to (a) let Greedo get a shot off, (B) insert a CGI Jabba the Hutt into the first (real-world timeline) movie, etc...

c)  Make Lucas a bigger fortune (although that might have paid for episode I - III).

I think they went back and edited the actor who actually played the Emperor into the second movie too.


CarbineKid loves Starwars  -  but I started him out right.  With VHS tapes of the first three from long before Lucas recut them.  He thinks those were "deleted scenes" that were added in.

FWIW I don't like the director cuts of Blade Runner, Apocalypse Now, or the Godfather  either.

I finally found the ORIGINAL versions on dvd.  They have the new version, and the originals version on another disc.  I've been looking for that for years.

Jabba was originally intended to be in the original Star Wars.  Lucas had a fat human instead of the slug, but Lucas never wanted Jabba to be human, so he left the part out.  Crappy CGI aside, I think it was good to add Jabba to the original Star Wars because now we know who and why Han Solo was on the run and trying to get money.

That's not the only butchery that Lucas commited against Return of the Jedi with his updates.

He changed the celebration song at the end from the original Ewok jam to a gay new wave-esque song.  To further the debauchery, he included celebration scenes from not just Endor but Correscant, Tattooine, and other planets that were not in the original.

My favorite space epic. Responsible (with, to a lesser extent, "Robotech") for me going into a creative field.

Say what you will; I love all six movies to varying degrees. Obviously the first three (IV-VI) more than the "new" three.

New Hope - Awesome.

The Empire Strikes Back  - More Awesome.

Return of the Jedi - Awesome except for the part where the care bears fuck up stormtroopers.

Phantom Menace - No Awesomeness except for the fight between Maul, Obi Wan, and Qui Gon.  Jar Jar Binks is the New Coke of movie characters.  

Attack of the Clones - Mace Windu Awesomely decaps Jango Fett, otherwise, Hayden Christensen and George Lucas bend the best movie bad guy ever over the casting couch and grudge fuck the character into nothingness.  

Revenge of the Sith - "Hold me like you did on Naboo" should have gone into rewrites and come out "squirt in me like a big stallion like you did on Naboo", because it sucked as shot like few things ever sucked.  GL and HC finish off their up-fuckery of Darth Vader by turning him into a spoiled, love sick child with mommy issues.  Thanks a lot, fuckers.  

Fuck George Lucas.   Great visuals, sound, and "atmosphere" aren't enough when the dialogue absolutely fucking sucks.
