I know this thread is just for fun, and it is kinda cute, but this kind of thing somewhat reminds me of some of the chefs that would compete on Iron Chef. They were stubbornly old school and thought that the Iron Chefs, with their fusion techniques, were some kind of disgrace and were killing the foundations of Japanese cooking. I can understand the fear of losing the originals, but to me, if there are so many chefs still preparing traditional dishes, they won't die. Let the new guys have their fun; don't harp on them for being different and having their own fun.

As for Lando, I don't really care one way or another. [in the case of ROTJ:R] This is an edit, made to play out to one man's vision, not a preservation effort. I know that many years ago, when I first heard that they had an alternate ending for Jedi where Lando dies, I thought 'wow, a major character killed off? Neat-o!' The idea intrigued me rather than turned me off. I sorta wished I could also see that ending.

If Lando were to die, the worst would be watching it with my mother, who has had Billy Dee Williams on her 'top 10' list since he did Bingo Long. :p
