I suppose the complaints made last year, justifiable though they may be, annoyed Lucas, and he is simply looking for a way to strike back.

I still love Jack's expression. You don't mess with Gittes.
I agree that this whole thing is completely ridiculous.

Yesterday's residual payment was a lie! starring David Prowse
David Prowse Banned might become David Prowse Band
Earn a few extra quid that way...
I have no interest in Celebration, except to see it happen as SilverWook describes -- with every iCamera rolling
However, in practice you must take into account the “fuckwit factor”. Just talk to Darth Mallwalker…

I think LFL's issue is that Prowse writes "David Prowse is Darth Vader", not just "David Prowse".
In that case, I understand Lucasfilm's objection, although I do not agree that Lucasfilm should be empowered to ban him from writing the slogan. "David Prowse is Darth Vader" sounds awfully like he is minimising the contribution of other artists to the character. Why not just sign it "David Prowse"? No one could justifiably object to that; it would identify him with the character without sounding as if others were being sidelined, and everybody would be happy.
I agree. But this has been going on for 33 years. It's not like Prowse just started doing this. Why was it OK up until now?
I don't know sounds like Lucash will now have Hayden Christensen sign "Hayden is Vader" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

There's an online petition now:

I know these things are largely believed to be useless, but at least it shows our support of Mr. Prowse.
Yeah, on-line petitions are definitely largely believed to be useless, especially here at originaltrilogy.com ;-)

Which complaints last year?
Outrageous is all I can say.
I think David, needs to teach Lucas the Green X-Cross Code!
Rule one! Now this is basic George. I want my f%)king money!!!
This is outrageous and George Lucas should be ashamed of himself for this backstabbing of Mr. Prowse in the back banning him, it’s disrespectful!
Only the originals from the 70mm six-track Dolby stereo Dolby format 42 will sound better on DVD/Bluray.
