I'm going to jump out my window if Williams adds in the Imperial March to ANH, I think the Empire's theme from the movie is fine just as it is, and if I had been doing the prequels, I would have focused on using that theme instead of the overused Darth Vader's theme.

I don't believe all the things in that change list, but the sad thing is, I wouldn't put it past Lucas to do such things. I was watching the old Making of ROTJ video tape and he was talking about if (in 1983) he could redo Star Wars, he could make it SO MUCH better than what it was.

I think Lucas will tinker with this film until the day he dies. I know artists never feel there work is complete, but Lucas has taken this to the extreme. I think he finds watching the original to be painful and he HATES it and HATES us for liking the film the way that it is.

So we are made to pay for Lucas' insecurities as a filmmaker.


You're not being made to do anything. You've got self-control and a free will. If you don't want to support any version of Star Wars on DVD except the original releases, that's your perogative. But you sound like a whiney chump when you complain about "taking this to the extreme", when all Lucas has done is whoppin' ONE revamp to the original trilogy. I defy you or anybody else to find so much as one quote from Lucas admitting point-blank that he's got another overhaul for the trilogy lurking in his mind. Moreover, when the unaltered original trilogy was released for the final time all those years ago, IT WAS ADVERTISED AS BEING THE FINAL TIME FOR THE UNALTERED VERSION! You can't say you didn't see this coming.

George, it was good the way that it was.


Yes. And it is good now.
