STAR WARS!!!!


Today is the day! Star Wars on DVD!!!! I'm trying to convince my wife to let me get the DVDs and not wait until Christmas. emoticon Oh, and Star Wars Battlefront is supposed to be out today. I've heard the online play rocks, but the single player game is weak due to poor AI.

Re: STAR WARS!!!!


Berkin, if you do pick up the DVDs today and have the opportunity, can you please confirm or deny this rumor I have heard as soon as possible? I have heard that in the final scene of RotJ -- in which the three spirits of Yoda, Obi Wan, and Anakin appear -- that Lucas has digitally removed the original Anakin and replaced him with a spirit Hayden Christensen . If this is in fact true, then I will absolutely refuse to purchase the DVD set. (I can't tell you how pissed off I was to find that my trilogy VHS box set had been befouled by Greedo shooting first.)

That's one crazy rumor, Djar which would be mo' fudged up if true!!! I doubt I'll be able to get them before the end of the month, so I'll keep an eye on the Star Wars fansites for verification of the rumor.

Yes, Lucas really messed them up (IMHO).

Yes the new RotJ ending is true, and he has amended your other complaint by making it look more like a simultaneous firing.

Why in the game of all that is sacred can he not release the originals untouched as God intended?

Re: STAR WARS!!!!


I've been thinking about this whole Hayden Christensen thing, and it is a big mistake. The reason Anakin was shown at the end of ROTJ next to Yoda and Obi Wan was a representation of his redemption. He was a good Jedi knight again.

By showing Christensen as the redeemed Anakin it taints the whole concept a little (not to mention the pictures I've seen of him in the shot look creepy). How can the man you are be redeemed if you return to the man you were before falling to the Dark Side. Why not change the whole thing to show a younger Yoda and digitally replace Sir Alec Guiness with Ewan McGregor???

It just doesn't make sense...

Oh, and Han Solo needs to remain the scoundrel he was! He killed Greedo out of selfishness. He didn't want to be taken to Jaba so he killed the green, bug-eyed bounty hunter. No self-defense involved. Why ruin the anti-hero concept which contrasted Luke's innocent idealism so well?
