I believe I have already stated that legally and technically, they're his.

I agree that there are other things life that deserve your heart and soul and they certainly more important than Star Wars (family, job, etc), that doesn't mean you can't have
emotionaly ties to things like Star Wars. Being a Star Wars fan is a hobby, is it wrong to have emotional ties to a hobby? Fans of sports have emotional ties to their team. Tell me, are you ok with owners moving their sports teams because the city that they are in won't build them a stadium? They own the team it is their legal right to move the team if they wish. But does that make it right? Are you going to tell me that the Dodgers didn't in some emotional way belong to the people of Brooklyn?, That the Cubs don't in some way belong to the people of Chicago? That the old Browns didn't belong to the people of Cleveland? In the way that the Redsoxs belong to the people of Boston, that is the way that Starwars belong to the fans.

its also the reason why no matter what lucas does to the films, whether he makes new ones or makes changes, they will always be hated by the hardcore fans.


see, this is the kind of statement that always makes me mad. I mean you makes us sound like stubborn bigoted idiots. Most harecore fans of any movie are not going to like changes or remakes. But they are really going to hate them if the changes are lousy and IMHO in the case the OT they are, and if they can longer see the unchanged version. The OT was fine the way it was, there was no need to change it. As for the PT if you make bad films, people aren't going to like them its that simple. And remember I did say
that EPIII was good, so obvously I don't hate all new films.

I ask again If Lucas decided that the whole saga would look better if there was a big red X accoss the entire screen on every frame of all 6 films, would you be ok with him doing it?
