Oh please!
A man in pyjamas battling against a man with a bin on his head breathing too heavily, I ask you! Nothing about this trilogy of films recommended itself to me. It was pish and nonsense throughout.


Too many cooks
Dear George,

Artists are afraid their work isn't good enough, and so they edit and re-work and edit some more. But once the fear is finally faced and the work is put out there
-to be loved or hated, for better or for worse-
the act of creation is over. The painting is dry and on display, the novel is finished and has been read. It exists ON ITS OWN and no longer belongs to you, it doesn't belong to anyone. I don't mind the changes as much as the fact that you actually made them. If another director stepped in and decided to re-edit your films it would be outright plagiarism. What you've done by inserting the 2005 [and 1997] George Lucas into the 1977 George Lucas' work is the same thing. We have learned to accept Jar Jar and ships that strangely get more modern the farther you go back in time. It's still lovable work for someone coasting into their golden years. Go crazy, have fun with it. You're making an Ewok of yourself though with these "new" editions. Quentin has the money to add a sword fight to Pulp Fiction, Frances could drum up production funds for a re-shoot of the end sequence of The Godfather II (just have the guy scare Fredo), Polanski could have another go at Chinatown exiled in Europe (think how much better that nose-cutting scene could be with today's CGI!). But they won't. Show some restraint you big baby.

You will never be in danger of losing our interest (and our $) George, but you're starting to lose our respect.

Sincerely,
an insulted but nevertheless loyal fan

Very new and yet so old
I first got intrested in this when I saw The Empire Strikes Back (VHS). I flipped over it. It was wonderful.

This makes the Trilogy a whole lot better. The X-Wings look real and thank goodness that they made Jabba in A New Hope computer animation because he looked horrible in the VHS. The thing about Hayden Christean I liked. It connects the original Trilogy to the Prequel Trilogy. The story was untouched and Empire of Dreams gave me a glimpse of how hard it was to make Star Wars. I liked the Return Of Darth Vader thing. It was cool how they say "It went from trying to save the one you loved..." And it shows Aniken carrying his dead Mom back to the Lars Homestead and then they say "... To realizing you can control the universe." It then shows a scene where Darth Vader and his Blizzard Force Stormtroopers entering the Echo Base. The preivews section was cool too. It's a must buy!
