Some more news: Lucas, in a rebellious act of independence and strength as a filmmaker, has cut all of the battles, lightsaber fights, people getting hurt/killed, etc. “I decided that the first trilogy I made was too violent. So politically incorrect, too. I tried to improve on this with the Special Editions, but the facts remain; it has been brought to my attention that many people are offended by the Star Wars movies. They are too violent and too chauvinistic. Therefore, I have decided to balance the entire saga out with Revenge of the Sith. It’s a funny family comedy. To make it politically correct, I also had to recast Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Palpatine as female characters. It’s a little jarring at first, but the movie is better because of it.”
