4K restoration on Star Wars — Page 161

I get that we’re on a forum called OriginalTrilogy, but we can favor the OT without bearing more of that toxic ill will or disrespect towards anyone else who thinks differently. If we want to put it in perspective, “pro-prequels” are more likely to be younger, and at a point you’re really just shit-talking kids. Way to go, champs.

I hope fans at Celebration treat Hayden with respect. He’s really not a bad actor or guy, and he’s a fellow Star Wars fan when we get down to it.

But he’s an important part of the Star Wars legacy now whether you like it or not, and I hope no one tries to take that away from him or anyone else who’s grown up with or are fans of him.

Him being here or in TLJ won’t affect the original movies, our preservations, a possible 4K restoration, or whatever your personal perspective on Star Wars is.

He’s going to get a terrific reception at Celebration.

In my experience (two Celebrations) the audience is very much pro-prequel.

No wonder I haven’t gone…

Sorry you feel that way, but your loss.

Thank you for this. I understand the hate, but it’s still Star Wars.

Kids who grew up seeing the prequels in theaters when they were like 8 or 9 are in their mid-20s now.

I don’t look at them as “kids.” I look at “pro-prequels” as “conservative Republicans.” Don’t feel the need to associate with them either. Something to do with intelligence level. 😃

You seem like an open-minded guy!

I really don’t agree with the notion that intelligence has anything to do with the right to appreciate Star Wars in whatever way you like.

And maybe the “kids” thing doesn’t matter. (kids do fall under the “SW fans post-SE” umbrella tho)
How about just a general respect for others? You don’t have to associate with people you disagree with, but jesus, once you start to think you’re superior in any way, how do you not see how that’s toxic?

Yup! I accept those that accept others. So…maybe the Republican comparison isn’t the most accurate in the world because I can have a conversation with a prequel-lover. But…it’s similar.

I didn’t know this was a political forum. Interesting.

With Hayden being on the 40th Anniversary panel, we can kiss goodbye any chance that they will be announcing the unaltered versions being released. There is no way on earth they would have him there only to announce that they are going to give us the originals which would remove him appearing in the film and a scene that was hated by many since the change. If they do end up announcing them, just how awkward would that be? 😉

I highly doubt that if they announce it that they would boast all the individual reversions on stage. And they wouldn’t be removing him from the movie anyway. If it’s released, the OUT will be presented as bonus material or an alternate cut. And it’s not like Hayden actually performed in ROTJ. More like George abused his likeness. Didn’t he just swap the heads?

Yeah it was a headswap from a ROTS outtake.

That said, there is nothing wrong with mocking prequel lovers and belittling their bad taste. Kids these days don’t watch those movies. It’s teens and 20somethings that watched them when they were kids and lack the temperament to grow out of childish things that were never any good in the first place.

Imagine being this pretentious…

Thanks for this. I’m so glad that I get to read political junk in a Star Wars thread.

It’s hard to imagine. I definitely get why a lot of people on TFN dislike this place though, especially if they come here and see stuff like this.
