Most of this is old news, but here's an explanation of a couple of changes Lucas has made to the new Star Wars DVD release. Let the bitching begin....</div>

[Lox]

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Hayden Christianson at the end of RotJ sounds interesting. I'm curious to see what it looks like.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You're not really a SW fan, are you? Any REAL fan would be bitching endlessly at such a notion (sarcasm alert!)</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Really old. A friend at work has been working on getting the new DVDs from newsgroups.</div>

[Lox]

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I'm not a SW geek sadly, no. :) Now, if it looks like crap, I'll say so, but if it looks good and fits well, works for me!</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>This from the guy who goes on about real Megaman fans?</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Who fucking gives a shit? (I ask because I know that a LOT of people give a shit)</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I guess you missed the whole "sarcasm alert" part.....</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Hence the whole "most of this is old news" part....</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Enough that there's endless stories about them over the last few years. Personally, I'm all for changes if they make a movie better, regardless of how much I liked the old film, but changes for the sake of changes (like not showing a guy get shot) are stupid</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>No, that's what prompted my message. Think it through.</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Then how bout this? Stick with the 5 fucking SW DVD sets you already own.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Uh, Gentz? The Star Wars trilogy hasn't been released on DVD yet.</div>

[Eric]

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Heh every now and then your strike gold.</div>

[Agent 57]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You do have a point. What I don't get is why Lucas isn't releasing multiple SW box sets - one with the special editions, one with the original versions, etc. How can that not make him more money?</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Because he believes the old ones don't exist, that they're a constant work in progress. Besides, he's already said that the THX VHS releases are the last time you'll even see them. He doesn't want to be called a liar now, does he? :-)</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Think? I'm an accountant, I don't do things like that :-)</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Ah....dammit ; )</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>He also said for years that he won'y be making Episodes 7 to 9 because the Star Wars Saga is centered on the rise, fall, and redemption of Anakin. Now he's actually considering it.</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>He also said for years that he won't be making Episodes 7 to 9 because the Star Wars Saga is centered on the rise, fall, and redemption of Anakin. Now he's actually considering it.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I thought that he recently re-affirmed the fact that he isn't going to make it?</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>You're right. I read an article that said Mark Hamil was talking about it, but yes, Lucas has no plans to make three more movies.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Mark Hamill is too fucking old. If they are going to do a 7-9 (which I would really like to see), they would need a totally new cast.</div>

[Agent 57]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>7-9? Bah. They should make a film adaptation of one of the other parts of the canon, like the New Jedi Order or the X-Wing series of books (drooooooool).</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>..or animated (3D)</div>
