Jesus. Luke crying when Biggs die?

Stop giving GL ideas, damn it! He might do it!

This list actually had me going until I read that. The whole thing is something a prequel lover probably wrote ("Kassykk & Utapau have been added to the end celebration scenes.")
Don't forget: with Lacuna, you can forget.

Saw a list very similar to that on tf.net - the opinion there was that it was a fanboy list, though there is always hope...

This list lacks the confirmed change of the 'magic window' in Bespin.

A couple of years ago i would've complained, but I say bring on the changes.

But this list is an obvious fake and I'll you why. "Tarzan call removed". Why would they incorporate one in Episode 3 (because they love the joke so much) only to rip it off the movies later?

Seriously though I really want to see the movies changed again (rendering void Lucas' suggestions that this is his 'original vision' when he doesn't have one). That and I actually like seeing generations of changes, it's interesting to watch someone's idea change. That - and I can't wait to see Jimmy Smits bite the dust. He'll look sadder than when he found out he wasn't invited to the L.A Law reunion bash.

Haha! Is it April 1 already? If not, then we have serious problems on our hands. But I doubt even George would be stupid enough to add some of those things on the list. Obviously fake.

C3PX said: Gaffer is like that hot girl in high school that you think you have a chance with even though she is way out of your league because she is sweet and not a stuck up bitch who pretends you don’t exist… then one day you spot her making out with some skinny twerp, only on second glance you realize it is the goth girl who always sits in the back of class; at that moment it dawns on you why she is never seen hanging off the arm of any of the jocks… and you realize, damn, she really is unobtainable after all. Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

Looks like it might've originally come from IMDB...I did the research since she didn't know.

Here it is

(The IMDB link is on this other forum and spelled out there as well)

Its probably a fake, but when I saw it, I figured I'd share.

I think we can all agree the truth will be stranger than the fiction. And that you shouldn't underestimate GL's ability to baffle people with his timeless ability to revise his past works in odd and confusing ways.

It would be interesting to see Jimmy Smits looking up from sipping his morning coffee on Alderaan and do a spit take as the Death Star fires.

Where were you in '77?

Even though i am looking forward to a Limited Edition, Ultra, Directors Cut, Uncut and Uncensored version of the movies in one big box with extras longer than the movies themselves. I highly doubt that this is real. Many have menstioned the obvious changes that seem unlikely, such as the tarzan call. But messing with the original score of the original movie that started it all, ANH. I know lucas changed the score in Jedi but ANH, I don't think GL would stoop that low and offend John Williams. Also consider adding the extended wampa scene back into ESB, if you add that scene might as well add the scenes from ANH with Camie, Biggs, and Fixer, and the Sandstorm scene from ROTJ. Not likely.

One thing i hope to see changed is fricking lightsabers with fricking correct colors!

Also i would like to see the OOT added as a different way to view the movie!

at the end of the day, as crass as this sounds, there is NO way lucas is going to pass up a huge marketing and sales opportunity by combining the DVD release of ROTS (by itself an event) with a new mega boxed set of all six films...especially when the first boxed set will be barely a year old when the new one comes out.

my money's on 2007 for the next Star Wars on DVD release.

At first I really thought this list might be possible, and was very pleased with the potential changes, but as I went down the list I found it to be a bit too fanboyish, seriously calling its validity into question:
-9. Luke looks upset when Biggs dies and he sheds a tear (all CGI & PRT)
-4. A scene has been added where Yoda is teaching Luke how to fight with a lightasber made possible by Luke wearing a helmet while training (a stunt double plays him)
-5. The Wampa scenes have been edited and restored into the film as well as new scenes added. We see a Wampa being brought into the Rebel base and locked into a room with other Wampa’s. Later C-3PO knocks the sign off the door the Wampa’s are behind stating their there and when the Stormtroopers enter the base they open the door only to be attacked by the Wampa’s who then can be seen escaping as the Millennium Falcon blasts off out of Hoth
-8. Some of Yoda's facial expressions have been improved beacuse of CGI
-1. In the battle on Endor more Ewoks and Stormtroopers can be seen fighting and dieing and some parts of the battle have been edited out, members of Han’s team can be seen fighting as well (these scenes were shot during the production of Episode I, 7 years ago)
-2. Vader uses the force to reclaim his lightasber after he throws it at Luke and the sound of him turning it on again has been removed
-5. Vader has a flashback of Padme after his talk with Luke when he first meets him on Endor (filmed during Episode III)
-6. Kassykk & Utapau have been added to the end celebration scenes
-7. Some of Yoda's facial expressions have been improved beacuse of CGI
-9. Chewbacca's Tarzan call has been removed

Some of these are quite outlandish, not to mention unecessary; Luke crying and Vader's flashback in particular.

Well, those two things actually were filmed the first time around, or were in the shooting script so they aren't that outlandish. The helmet thing no, but I could have sworn there was a scene where Luke was supposed to split a piece of metal into 7 pieces with his lightsaber.

As for most of the heavy CGI stuff, it would cost too much money to do it for no reason.

I thought JW already changed the score for ANH? I remeber hearing about it back when AOTC came out. Anyway, I am so not for this list! Heres something, fix the cracked out yoda from TPM! Make him CGI, not the original trilogy one. Anyway! These changes seem like the fanboy wishlist from when the trilogy was hitting DVD. Remember, the NEW AND IMPROVED BATTLE OF YAVIN!

If GL would just re-edit ROTS with all the dialogue and the fighting that was cut out, I'll be happy.
Which is the more foolish, the fool (the OT) or the fool who follows (the PT)?
