"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won't last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you'll be able to project it on a 20' by 40' screen with perfect quality. I think it's the director's prerogative, not the studio's to go back and reinvent a movie."
Chilling quote, isn't it? To me, it's like a fucking declaration of war against fans of the originals.
Well, George, if the SE is only edition available I will not buy it and I will not watch it. If I can't watch the original I will not watch Star Wars. Nor buy Star Wars things -no funding the empire from me, thank you very much.
