A Fanboy is someone who goes along with the Lucas program, treats him like God, and defends everything he does, including prequels and SE or SSE changes.
Those who disagree with Lucas are definitely not fanboys, and might be better described as anti-fanboys or heretics.

No, a fanboy is someone who bitches and whines about every little thing that Lucas does, but buys the DVDs anyway. They bitch about the DVDs, they bitch about the Prequels, but they'll wait in line at Best Buy for the OT DVDs and for ROTS, watch them 20 times, and then go online and bitch about how much they suck.
A fan is someone who likes something. If you guys hate this stuff so much go away. I hate Star Trek ever since DS9 went off the air. I don't go to Star Trek fan sites and rant and rave about how much Berman has killed the franchise.
The only things you guys enjoy more than hating Lucas is telling the world how much you hate Lucas.
I used to do the exact same thing with comics. I got over it when I realized I was just wasting my time. I enjoy my hobbies much more now.

I am on here because I am a fan of the ORIGINAL TRILOGY (hence www.originaltrilogy.com), and if you want to get greasy with the true Lucas Fanboys, then head on over to www.starwars.com and really see who the vocal and bizarre Fanboys really are.

Darth AL, welcome to the boards! I'm happy you like everything about the DVDs. Although I'm not unhappy about owning them, I still have quite a few issues about the quality of presentation (my disagreements about some of the changes applied to the film put aside). All we purists would like to have is the 'peaceful coexistence' of both the original theatrical cuts on DVD, alongside the 'most current vision' George Lucas has envisioned for these days. Wouldn't it be of interest - even for someone who loves these new versions?

To me, it indicates that:
1. Lucas never bothered to educate the public regarding what they were actually buying, instead opting to deceive them by calling this release "the original trilogy".
2. The tasteless individuals who actually prefer this revisionist trash are unfortunately the vocal majority. Wouldn't be the first time the masses prefer crap in a fancy wrapper.

But you'll come to a site dedicated to the original, unaltered trilogy and antagonize the forum members.
Tell you what, how about we all hang out here, and you go away.
Asshole.

you can't compare that. the star trek you like went off air BUT it is available on DVD as it was when you first watched it. The Original Trilogy on the other hand is anihilated, it does not exist anymore, in Lucas' point of view. And that's what upsets most of the posters on this forum.
As Jay said it already, if you are satisfied whit the SSE DVDs, what are you doing here anyway?? Only annoying those who would like to have the 77 - 83 versions on a proper, official, legal DVD? I really do not understand it...

Calling anyone who likes the DVDs a "Lucas mole", suggesting Lucas be sued for false advertisement, making up stories about how TPM was booed in theaters, changing my icon. Let's face it, some of you have taken you unhappiness over not having both the SE's and Originals on DVD to a whole new level of hating.
Poor Al says "Um, I like the DVDs" and he get's, well, mauled by rabid fanboys. I think some of you need to learn to relax. It's much healthier.

The fact is, I don't. All I want is the original trilogy on a tangible DVD.
And this forum has given me that.
Thank you, OT.com. Thanks Jay, Rik, Master Sify-Dyas, MagnoliaFan, etc. for everything.
I'm not attacking anyone. If you want the new DVDs (and are educated about the changes) then fine with me. But I'm not.

Think about it. Lucas is aware of this site. Do you think if he came here and read how he ass raped everyone's childhood and how everything he's done since ESB has sucked and that he's a lunatic that he'd take this site seriously?
Or do you think he'd laugh his ass off and ignor the people here as a bunch of lonney tunes?
The petition was a brilliant idea. I signed it.
This forum, on the other hand, was a moronic idea that completely marginalized anyone who wanted both DVD sets released, myself included.
If you want someone to do somthing, calling them a "lunatic" isn't the way to go about it. The way I see it this site was never about getting the OT on DVD as much as it was about bitching about everything Lucas has done since the SEs, if not earlier.

Georgie Porgy has already stated that he would NEVER release the Original Trilogy on DVD and that as of 2004 IT DOES NOT EXIST. Were you living under a rock and missed that announcement?
So basically, we have nothing to lose about calling a spade a spade and referring to Lucas a senile old fart, because a man is defined by his actions, and Georgie is definitely showing his true colors. The guy's obviously lost it, and only the Star Wars Fanboys can't (or won't) see that.

Man, Lucas must be using his ill-gotten DVD booty to hire more online Moles.
Seriously!! I really like the DVDs, and I've been a huge fan of all things SW for 20 strong years. I am entitled to my opinions. And I appreciate the classics as much as the next man. A lot of the changes are to preserve continuity with the prequels and blend their effects more seamlessly. That is a very logical move. If you are afraid that such a thing imbrues the original moves - too bad. Do what I did; buy the original trilogy on the remastered VHS set. If you're so nit picky about it being "old school" then isn't putting it on DVD sacrilegious in and of itself? *sigh*

Ah, your incredible cognitive abilities continue to astound, oh Follower of the Lucas Flame!! I own more home theatre hardware than you'll be able to afford in your lifetime little boy, but that doesn't mean I like simplisitic, moronic movie-making like that old senile fart pumps out for the fanboys.
LOL, now why not run back to www.starwars.com like a good little Lucas Groupie....

I am trying to adopt a middle ground here, I purchased the 04 editions because I wanted the best source material for my fan edits.
But It baffles me why he didin't release a set in a similar vain to the Alien Quadrilogy everyone would be happy then, but if your a billionaire surrounded by lackys who think the sunshines out of your arse...

Yep, Lucas said that earlier this year.
And fanboys like you have been bitching since Return of the Jedi.
So why the Hell should he give you what you want, you ingrate? Perhaps if you had asked him nicely and respectfully we'd have the O-OT's on DVD right now.
But NO. You had to go pitch a bitch fit and act like a spoiled toddler for years, slamming the Special Editions and the Prequels and generally behaving like a total ass towards he guy.
I don't blame Lucas for not putting out the O-OTs. I blame YOU and every fanboy like you. Because if I were George Lucas and I read the kind of crap you people post about me, I'd tell you to go **** yourself.
Ever see Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back?

That's what you're doing ... trolling. I think your trolling is pretty pointless ... there are scores of Star Wars sites teeming with people who share your opinions on these DVDs, George Lucas' revised "visions," and the prequels. This site is not one of them ... if it was, I'd be banned by now (and I haven't even posted very much here yet).
I came here to find like-minded fans of the original films who share my contempt for and disappointment with George's constant meddling. Even at IMDB, the like-minded individuals I saw were few and far between. I did not register here to read the same old "Lucas is an infallible God" line that, quite frankly, I believe is contributing to the destruction of everything that was ever good about Star Wars. Low expectations reap lowly products.
So instead of "trolling" here and whining about the reactions you've received, why aren't you sticking to websites that you know agree with you?

That said, I still hated Greedo, Jabba, the Wampa, the ESB shuttle sequence, Jedi Rocks!, and Hayden. The Hayden change could have worked if 1) He actually made eye-contact with Obi-Wan, 2) He didn't look so damn creepy, 3) The spirits started out in their original form, and then ALL THREE morphed into their younger selves.
