On the Internet, all those same guys that are complaining I made a change are completely changing the movie,” Lucas says, referring to fans who, like the dreaded studios, have done their own forcible re-edits. “I’m saying: ‘Fine. But my movie, with my name on it, that says I did it, needs to be the way I want it.

LMFAO!!

My answer to George on this point would be:

"100% agree George.  You DID have the right to do this, however on three occasions in 1977, 1980, and 1983, prior to each film being designated as 'in the can' ready for duplication and presentation throughout the world.
After these periods of time have passed, is NOT when you have that right, especially when you're trying to change history and erase the past. Alternatre cut yes by all means, but not 'my new new new cut' etc. whenever you feel like it"
