Kurgan Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 No more special editions please. Yes, I've seen a certain fan edit that blows Lucas' attempts (from 1997 and 2004) away, but I prefer the originals. I'd rather see a restored original (cleaned up picture and sound, all original theatrical soundtracks available, etc), on DVD and hi def, than YET ANOTHER SE. But rumor has it that Lucas is planning another SE, and it was only a percieved lack of demand that stopped him from releasing one for the 30th anniversary (back in May). The 3D Star Wars theatrical release was also delayed indefinately for reasons of technology. But I say, if Lucas wants to keep toying with Star Wars, I would much rather he remade the originals, actually remade them... new script, reshoot, new actors... than do endless "special editions" that modify the original movies. Release a pristine quality set of the theatrical originals on the home formats and let it be. I don't understand why he can't just do these classic movies justice... PS: Yes, I did hear the news that they're doing a remake of "Highlander." And no, I don't have high hopes for it, with all the crap the franchise has had to deal with in the last twenty years...

GeneralPloKoon Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I thought the lightsaber battle in ROTJ was pretty fast and real. Be nice to Obi-Wan, he's old...and Vader was probably a little rusty too!
Relenzo2 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 I think we have enough remakes people. How could any of us complain like we do about the PT, and then want this remade to be like it? NOOOOONONONO!

Great Scott! Posted August 3, 2008 Posted August 3, 2008 This would really ruin the magic of it all, I think it's incredibly awesome the second half was made almost twenty years before the first half. The Star Wars movies get a lot of attention simply from their unique and different style of numbering and continuity that no other movie series has really come close to matching. To remake the originals would just kill that and make a lot of people lose faith in Lucas. By the way, not entirely relevant, but even though I used to defend the special and DVD editions to no end, I prefer the originals greatly now. They're just less awkward and don't have this strange mix of animatronics and CGI the re-makes have. They look great on my high-definition TV (and this is talking about the ones on the official DVD), so I don't see why everybody's complaining about it so often.
Nedak Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Hell no, the prequels are already messed up the way it is. George Lucas needs to stop making movies and go eat a steak.
Druganator Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 well i dont think it matters what we say anywya its not like its gonna affect their obvious decision not to change it cuz theyre nto gonna waste time addin a few little things for no reason
Blix Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 You're both obviously too young to appreciate the awesomeness that was the original trilogy. Lucas has already butchered it enough. >.> Quoted for truth
