Oh, but that's the problem. The old versions are "magically" (by which I mean legally) disappearing. It's now impossible to get a full copy of the original Star Wars that's not a pirate. Lucas is deleting the old versions as he "updates" them.Karthak said:And if you don't like the changes, just watch a non-altered version. Just because a new version appears it doesn't mean the old ones magically disappear.
I think he means that the clip is 13 seconds long so there's no reason for people to be hung up on it?bombadilillo said:What?Baneat said:Star wars fans;
13 seconds.
Sincerely, Reason.
I thought it was something like that. Seeing as how everyone is having a normal civlized discussion besides the few people over reacting at the "crazy fans" that don't strictly exists I don't know what to say.anthony87 said:I think he means that the clip is 13 seconds long so there's no reason for people to be hung up on it?bombadilillo said:What?Baneat said:Star wars fans;

I dunno, it's hard to tell what a person means when they're trying to be funny or whatever but then fail completely at getting the point across.
That's what they were called in a lot of the early scripts. Hardly a criminal act to simply refer to them by what he first called them. And since I'v heard him call them lightsabres, he obviously uses them interchangeably.anthony87 said:I stopped caring about Lucas when I saw him refer to a Lightsaber as a "Laser Sword".
Yes you can judge me for that, I know it's a petty thing to get hung up about but you would think that the guy who created the very concept of the Lightsaber would have enough admiration/respect/whatever to refer to it by its proper fucking name.

True. I recently bought Episode 6 with both versions. I not only like the old version more, but it has a more awesome menu. The animated the concept art for it, and it looks awesome.JediMB said:The "Limited Edition" packages containing both the originals and the 2004 versions were still available in stores last time I checked.The_root_of_all_evil said:Castrate Lucas now.

That's the 1993 remix of the original. The glass shattering when Han shoots out the camera of the detention block gives it away - as well as "New Hope" on the crawl.JediMB said:The "Limited Edition" packages containing both the originals and the 2004 versions were still available in stores last time I checked.
Your children's children will never see "Star Wars", just "A New Hope".Lucas said:There will only be one. And it won't be what I would call the "rough cut", it'll be the "final cut". The other one will be some sort of interesting artifact that people will look at and say, "There was an earlier draft of this." The same thing happens with plays and earlier drafts of books. In essence, films never get finished, they get abandoned. At some point, you're dragged off the picture kicking and screaming while somebody says, "Okay, it's done." That isn't really the way it should work. Occasionally, [you can] go back and get your cut of the video out there, which I did on both American Graffiti and THX 1138; that's the place where it will live forever. So what ends up being important in my mind is what the DVD version is going to look like, because that's what everybody is going to remember. The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won't last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you'll be able to project it on a 20' by 40' screen with perfect quality. I think it's the director's prerogative, not the studio's to go back and reinvent a movie.
So you're just mad, because you can't get what you want, then joining the bandwagon of peopel claiming lucas raped their childhood, and kileld star-wars? To be fair, i haven't seen you rage on that level, so take my comment with a grain of salt, i don't consider you to be rageing that way, i just wonder why you try to defend the level of rage, far exceeding what i have quoted you for, with the sound statement, that you would've liked the original on blu.-ray.bombadilillo said:Not "hurting" But I have a big ole TV and bluray player and I cannot get a good quality copy of the movies without it being updated. Which is what I want. So yeah. There it is.teisjm said:Still, how is releasing altered versions of the original hurting the original-original trilogy?maddog015 said:A lot of people are raging more over the changes Lucas is doing to the original trilogy. It ends up spilling over into prequel discussion because if it weren't for the prequels, he probably would have left the original trilogy alone.teisjm said:And don't compare this to the prequels, While they didn't take anythign away from people who liked the original trilogy, i can udnerstand people rageing against it to some extend, because they were hoping for awesomeness and felt disapointed. People claiming that the prequels reuined the original, I don't understand though, as nothing in the originals changed, and they can simply just dismiss the prequels if they don't like them.
If you like a song a lot, and finds out someone has made a cover-version, or techno remix of it, would it be enough to rage? it's not like it's removing the original form existence, or makeing it illegal or anything. You can still enjoy the song you liked, in the version you liked like you always have.
So all the rage, is because people can't get a HD version of the original-original?maddog015 said:Because the only version of original trilogy that exists (legally) is laser-disc transferred onto DVD's. That's good enough for me honestly, but I can see how some people get pissed when the "new and improved" altered original trilogy gets its film and sound cleaned up then put onto blu ray and the original movies don't.teisjm said:Still, how is releasing altered versions of the original hurting the original-original trilogy?

That's because the youtube videos are the original footage spliced with the supposedly leaked audio from the new DVD's.Hero in a half shell said:What is the point of these? They sound horribly out of place, and I don't just mean that in a nostalgic "He shouldn't be messing with the old movies"
The new sounds don't integrate at all into the scenes, maybe Darth's second 'Nooo!', but his first was just... fake, and Obi Wans call is just weird, I mean, what was wrong with the first call he did?
As I've said before, somebody needs to give Lucas a proper project to do, to stop him ruining all his good films. Can't we think of some marginally good sci-fi piece that no one really cared for, that we could give him to redo?

At no point did I defend that. There are a few extremists saying Star wars is dead, and even more if you care to look freaking out at the "fanboys" going crazy. People shold be able to talk about something stupid without people over reacting and calling them crazy, telling them to get a new hobby or accusing everyone of being at the same level as "My childhood got raped"
I want an HD cut of Star Wars without Jar Jar at finale of RotJ. This does not mean anything extreme.
No, I think this is pretty accurate.MarlonBlazed said:Lucas didn't make Star Wars Lucas made the prequels.
Everyone involved with the first Star Wars movies contributed a lot to the films but in the prequels everyone involved had no spine and agreed with everything he said even though you can see on there faces they know Lucas is a **** with no good ideas.
Can you see the difference, its pretty clear.
I'm probably wrong though I'm just loosely quoting Plinkett's reviews on the three prequels I seen last year.
There only his property because of how ridiculous copy right in the U.S. is. Watch this video.Karthak said:Oh for Buddha's sake.
The films are his property, so if he wants to tinker with them, it's his right. And if you don't like the changes, just watch a non-altered version. Just because a new version appears it doesn't mean the old ones magically disappear.
