Thanks, man.  I'll eventually get back into the swing of things.

I suppose I should clarify my thoughts on the Graffiti title card.  It's a weird change to make, but so minor compared to the film itself (unchanged) or any of his other mega-changes - THX, Star Wars - that I'm ok with it.  And by ok, I mean I wish he hadn't done it, but it doesn't affect the film or my view of it.  Which is a top ten for me, by the way.

Regarding THX;  I've seen the screen grabs, just as I had with the Star Wars SE.  There's no way in the world I'd watch that travesty.  What he did to THX is ruining, just as the SEs were.

Principal or not - there is an enormous difference between altered static title card and entirely new, CGI, story-changing scenes in films.
