TripHammer Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I don't know if it constitutes a remake or not... but I just watched Return of the Jedi on HBO.. and at the end of the movie when they're all celebrating their victory... Luke is looking off away from the crowd.. and sees Yoda, Obi Wan, and Anakin... Well they've changed the ghostly figure of Luke's father Anakin into the Anakin that played in Ep 2 and 3. Shameful...

DarthMuffin Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 That's the DVD version that came out.... two years ago? They also had Ian McDiarmid as Palpatine in ESB, Temuera Morrison (Jango) as the voice of Boba Fett and fixed a few extra things (like the CG Jabba in ANH, which was very ugly in the 1997 (?) re-release).

urluckyday Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 It was 3 years ago, and this isn't news or anything like that. I mean, just look at all the flame wars about which ending and version is better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TripHammer Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 hmmm... sry for double posting a topic.. I'm still back tracking through the forum, and catching up on topics. I certainly don't want to start up another flame thread. It just popped in my head while I was reading through some of the stuff here. My personal thoughts are movies ought to be left alone. Doesn't have to be Star Wars. I don't even like the colorization of movies. That's shameful too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucasForumFreak Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 They also showed the Gungans celebrating on their world along with the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Allen`` Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 They were going to have Padme make an appearence. I'm just waiting for twenty years for when Lucas remakes the prequals and gives Aayla a larger part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike322 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I didn't like Hayden Christensen being the ghost of Vader. Although Iam Mcdiarmid in ESB was good. I never noticed the change in Boba Fett's voice. However I still prefer the originals. The celebrations are cool, but Greedo shooting first killed the remakes for me. I have the orginals on DVD and I highly recommend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 These aren't really remakes... they're edits, tweaks, butcherings, hackjobs, whatever, but not really "remakes" in the proper sense. But yeah I agree, those changes were crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taos Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 These aren't really remakes... they're edits, tweaks, butcherings, hackjobs, whatever, but not really "remakes" in the proper sense. Exactly, Lucas is simply tying things together a little bit more in order to make it flow with episodes I-III. Personally I really enjoyed the new updated versions.

Rev7 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I also enjoyed the new updated versions. I liked how they changed the force ghost of 'Anakin' in ROTJ to Hayden Christensen. I like it because it actually showed the face of Anakin when he was last on the lightside. IMO, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Kennedy Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Truth be told the film has been remade and updated. We have Arica in there now, the current Anakin actor is in there, we have Naboo and Gungans celebrating the Rebel victory. Isn't Natalie Portman supposed to be in there in one form or another? How about a retcon that does not have the Fett killed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
