UGHH!!!!! Lucas went and changed something on the DVD release of Return of the Jedi that even differs from the Special Edition VHS release a few years ago so he can "advertise" the prequels. At the end of the original, when Anakin joins ScoobyDoo ghosts Yoda and Obi-Wan during the Ewok Celebration, it is the actor who played the dying Vadar unmasked. In the DVD release, they replaced him with the kid playing Anakin in episodes II & III. SPOOGETARD!!! Its bad enough you have to go and add stuff in, but "rewriting" an important and (sniffle) touching scene? AARRRGGGHH!!!
Ok i'm done now.....BTW, the extra DVD on behind the scenes stuff is neat.
yeah it totally blows... Not to mention the STUPID ass music that is playing during the celebration. They have also changed the voice of bobafet when vader sent them off looking for skywalker. But Luke still sounds like a little baby when vader tells him he is his father.
Ok, I did run through this, but I found something else interesting and supporting of my cause. BTW, my campaign is against Lucas, not necessarily the first 3 SW movies. Yeah, so I just learned he didn't direct Empire. Hmm, and it's arguably the best one of all of them...so that means he's done a grand total of 2 movies since 1971? Yeah, now that's what I call an accomplished director.
Oh, and this issue is my number one complaint with the new release. What a gay move. I mean really. Am I the only one that thought Jar Jar is more masculine than that pussy Anikin?
"I can't sleep at night because I'm all clammy and sweaty and lying in a puddle of my own piss because I can't stop breathing your scent, Princess Ama-F-dolla."
"No, I can't Darth. It's wrong. You're a yedi and I'm a royal Princess."
"But, Whyyyyyyyyyyy?"
"Ok, give me your meatsaber!"
"YAY!"
Am I the only person who found that kid to be the first male actor in the history of movies where you could totally tell he was wearing make-up? Yeah, even more obvious than Jack as the Joker or Dustin as Titsie.
I'll leave you guys with a quote from Phantom Menace that sums up the subtle use of dialogue to accentuate the nuances and deep rooted meanings in this series of films. This is baby Anikin, flying the ship-a-ma-do-dad at the end with R2 riding along.
I will just say that I can tell where Luke gets his whining from... Not his mother... Anikin is by far the whiniest little bastard in the entire series with his puck ass sun taking a very close second...
And yes... Empire Strikes Back was THE BEST Star Wars movie ever... All others are crap... Esp. episodes 1, 2, and I am very sure 3...

I'll agree with your assessment of Empire, it is by far the best. As for 3, the only thing i'm looking forward to is James Earl Jones 🙂

I didnt catch the Bobba Fett dubbing, but its now the actor in the prequels who played Jango Fett. Good ear Goose.

Dont encourage him. He may release a super dooper release into theaters where not only are those changes made, but the ewoks are replaced by Fraggles.
