It seems that the movie might not get a theatrical release, but both versions *will* be available on DVD... if it gets a theatrical release, I'm guessing it'll be the non-cancer one. Comments?
A Goon in a Gaggle of 'em
Aand, Fanboys get a victory!

On the other hand, they have to know by now that irritating ~90% of the people who will eventually go see Fanboys has got to count for something. Maybe they really are considering releasing the film with the cancer plot intact.

What I find hilarious is how much their panties are in a knot over the change in direction of the film. Sure, it's pretty bad when someone like TWC steps in and says "we need more crude language and nudity in this film or it won't do well," along with trying to remove the cancer plot and make it just about crazy-ass fans who have nothing better to do than break into Skywalker Ranch. But some of those 501st guys are acting like it's an insult to them personally that the film has been changed - as if this sort of thing never happens in the film industry, and they wouldn't have volunteered to help make the film anyway.
Furthermore, they're saying that taking out the cancer plot is a direct insult to the founder of the 501st, whose daughter died of cancer last year. They really don't need to go there.My Projects:

The 501st are especially pissed about Fanboys because they were actually in the movie. Apparently they volunteered costumes, as well as themselves as extras, to help shoot this ultra-low budget film.

In the comments of that blog post, they claim to not be taking an official stance "as a legion" and that it's a few members doing it "on their own". Yeah, right, and those few members probably never invoked the 501st or anything like that.
Those guys are so full of it by saying they wouldn't have volunteered anyway. Any chance to dress up in their armor and they'll do it.
I'm a little surprised their comments are being made on a public website though. They're usually pretty careful to leave the bitching and moaning to either in person or the members only sections of their websites.
You are disciplined but tolerant; a true American.
