The Actual Original
« on: May 07, 2006, 09:27:38 AM »
One of da guyz says that the original Star Wars trilogy is being released to DVD later this year and as part of the bonus features package the REAL original theatrical releses will be included, you know the ones they made with actors and material things... before Lucas converted to the CG god.  
Gonna buy it?

My Dad is officially George Lucas' Bitch, so he'll buy it, but... yeah. I was a little impressed. I didn't know Lucas had any marketing for these movies left in him, and there he pulled an elephant out of the hat.

I mean, after all the complaints, you know, KNOW that people are going to line up to buy the original version, so they can show thier families and kids what the series originally looked like.

If it's gonna have the non-'upgraded' version, heck yeah!  I never believed that Han would let Greedo shoot first, like Lucas retconned in the special edition.

yes, han will shoot first again. And I'm buying it especially considering I never bought the upgraded DVD. So, good thing I waited :)

Personallby, I really liked the upgraded Episode IV, with the major exeption of the "Greedo Thing". The Death Star fight was MUCH better in the upgrade, as was seeing some of the deleted scenes, but I probably won't buy this. I've seen Star Wars 257 times now (yes I am nerd enough to count) and have the entire movie memorized, so why bother? If, however, someone bought it for me (since my birthday is in 2 weeks) then yes, I would watch them. ;)

Me too, so I think I'll ask my much more flush brothers for this as my Christmas present.  I gotta have the original on something other than tape.

In an interview Lucas actually had the gall to say he changed the Han-Greedo scene because he didn't want Han to be a 'cold blooded murderer since they cannot be redeemable'

HELLO!?  Can anyone say hypocrisy? Han gets the drop on a would be killer and he's damned?  Anakin murders a building full of students and he's the redemtion golden boy.  Pukorama!

Sadly, I do have geek issues

Maybe someone should have pointed that out to the fat frag. Personally, I'm getting pretty fraggin' tired of George "I'm a god beecause I had input on a great trilogy 20 years ago" Lucas. I hope someone shoves a cactus up his hoop.
