Once again, I totally agree with Obi Jeewhyen. I also think it makes our stance look a little less legitimate if we're complaining about how we think it's stupid for Lucas to change his movies but whole-heartedly agree with Tolkien changing his books. It makes us seem more like the whiny hatemongers that Go-Mer accuses us of being. I'm against the whole practice on principle. I don't have it in for George specifically. And there have been changes in the OT that I actually like, like the replacement of Yub-Nub. I've admitted that. But I'd still prefer Yub-Nub over the new song simply because it's the original song and belongs in the movie more so than the new one. So it has nothing to do with my preference, just my opinion that once art is released to the public, it should not be altered in any way.
