Like any other "editor" in these forums, their vision is just as acceptable as George's,plus the fact it is HIS story and if you don't like them stop complaining and hope for GODZILLA 2,but I wouldn't hold your breath.

You are in the wrong place, guy.  You want TF.n.

 No I'm not in the wrong place,GUY because if I'm not mistaken this is called "General Star Wars Discussion". If you understood what I wrote I was not blind to the fact that there were many problems with some of the factors concerning the Star Wars series,but GL put his own money...again,into projects that he loved and I'm guessing wanted the public to enjoy. He had many talented people working as hard as any of the artists did with the original trilogy. He did not have to go back to the Star Wars universe because he just wanted to F**K with the fans. He's admitted on documentaries that he did become what he was fighting against in the 70's and that is a corporation. With the success of his other ventures and companies Lucasfilm became bigger and bigger. I"m not just a blind,mindless follower of his and have disliked some products that came from his industry,but I rarely if ever see anyone defend him or his character. If he solely wanted to rake in the cash he wouldn't have started episode 1 with "trade disputes and senate intrigues" which I don't think most kids would fully understand or appreciate and he was not pandering to the fanboy populace,either. He put down on paper and eventually film what he wanted the story to flesh out to become.  I remember many critics who thought the OT was a pointless mesh of one dimensional characters speacking one dimensional dialogue ,while the SPFX dominated the movies and were only for weak minded children and just a waste of time for the "Adult Mentality". Now these movies are in the list of the best films of the twentieth century and not just because of the Box Office receipts.                 Regarding that master filmaker Roland Emmerichs' "masterpiece" GODZILLA,it had nothing to due to the japanese movie monster fans being more discerning,because it had NOTHING to do with the Japanese GODZILLA! It was panned in Japan and most other "discerning" movie goers minds as a pale imitation of the REAL Godzilla anyway....LOL ,I can't even believe I'm talking about this crappy movie in comparison to the Star Wars saga! We will see in twenty years which movies are more cherished....oh yeah,in regards to the whining and bitching about the unaltered OT not being released AGAIN on blu ray,,there are enough VHS's,Laserdiscs and versions on other sites for anyone to obtain the PERFECT version of the movies....so buy or download it and get over yourselves and your hatred and disgust for LUCAS...."for we all know that leads to the Dark Side"...:)
