That would be great. Speaking of Hitler, I actually think Stalin would make a better analogy, as Stalin had a predilection for revisionist history, he had an awful lot of people airbrushed out of pictures of the revolutionaries. Kinda reminds one of how Lucas is "airbrushing" things, and now even actors out of the trilogy.
Also this is as good a time as any to point out that I don't think it would be wise to use the title "Bowling For Coruscant" as I don't think it would be wise to associate ourselves and our film with Michael Moore in any way even in a playful way. Many, many people hate Michael Moore, and I think that basing the title off of the title of one of his shameless propaganda pieces could alienate a significant number of potential supporters. That, and Moore is just a total piece of shit and we shouldn't associate ourselves with him, he's a shameless propagandist with no credibility, why would we want to guilt ourselves by association to that? Anyway, there is plenty of time to come up with titles, that is the least of our problem, let's worry about getting this project off the ground first. We don't need a title until it is done, let's get it started!
