I am genuinely curious to know if you knew about the originally intended story before you saw Empire, and if that is part of the reason you don't buy into it.
I know I am NOT him, but I can tell you my Friends and I went and saw Empire on release weekend and we are huge Fans, just friggin LOVED the movies, we were kids LOL, collected trading cards, comics, toys, etc., and I believe no one knew of this then, so to all of us, this is what it was, but I suppose now knowing it makes the movies wrong, which I find absurd, so what if GL changed his mind, I am pretty sure other Directors have done this to, the public at that time was shocked to find out Vader was Luke's Father, and it was GREAT! I can still remember the look on ALL our faces sitting there and hearing this, good times.
I will say though, if he or anyone knew this before seeing Empire, I SURE would love to see this proof.
