And it doesn't matter that Lucas paid the bills, etc. He had a cow when the studio cut 3 minutes out of American Graffiti. Ugh, how can I still be aggravated by this? I thought I'd be over it by now. That bearded fruitcake.

If you notice ESB is the least changed cause Kershner is still alive. The original SW is Lucas's movie, so that has the most changes, ROTJ has the second most changes, and to me the most major changes, cause Marquard died in 1987. If you Marquard were alive, we would still have Sebastian Shaw........................
