Anyone else think Empire Strikes Back's Special Edition is actually better than the Theatrical Cut?

The moronic part is that Diznee paid 4 billion with a giant clause {I know, unofficial} that they won’t screw around with it. I pay 4 Billion, I’m doing what ever the hell I want to with it. I have nor ever will understand why this @$$clown is trolling all the people who made him insanely rich. You have your preferred vision George? Great.
Why take a giant crap on everyone’s memories? It’s pointless, petty and small.

Even if Disney pulls it’s head out of its @$$ and they do an OTC release in HD, I will stay with the DeSpecialized, 4K77/4K83 fan edits just out of spite. The fans that did those love the films and did that for the love of the work and care more about the actual films than the companies do. The fans are passionate, the studios and lucas are spiteful, greedy &^%$#.[/rant]

In my opinion the “Mary Sue” stuff is absolute bullshit that has now seeped into the movies itself. The urge to pacify crying fans is the reason we’re now left with the fan wanking trash that is Rey Palpatine.

Though I suppose the only casualty is the integrity of Rey’s character, and who cares about that when you finally have an explanation for how “OP” she is! The saga is saved!

I don’t think you should blame it on the fans. None of the fans who hated Rey Nobody like Rey Palpatine. They see it for what it is: a misguided attempt to please everyone that resulted in the sequel trilogy having no clear direction.

They’re the cause, whether they like how it ended up or not. JJ and Terrio bought into the argument that Rey’s character progression should treat her like a video game character, not a human being. They ruined her arc for the sake of fans, and so every fan who complained Rey was “OP” deserved the shitty explanation they got.

Sounds reasonable.
