Then I don’t know what the question mark is doing there.
I’m pretty sure it’s the ironic type of question mark directed at the intelligence of the person who asked the question.
But it was not a question it was a statement.

I look at it the same way young George Lucas looked at it:
A copyright is held in trust by its owner until it ultimately reverts to public domain. American works of art belong to the American public; they are part of our cultural history.
People who alter or destroy works of art and our cultural heritage for profit or as an exercise of
power are barbarians, and if the laws of the United States continue to condone this behavior, history will surely classify us as a barbaric society.…
It will soon be possible to create a new “original” negative with whatever changes or alterations the copyright holder of the moment desires. The copyright holders, so far, have not been completely diligent in preserving the original negatives of films they control. In order to reconstruct old negatives, many archivists have had to go to Eastern bloc countries where American films have been better preserved.
In the future it will become even easier for old negatives to become lost and be “replaced” by new altered negatives. This would be a great loss to our society. Our cultural history must not be allowed to be rewritten.
…
The public’s interest is ultimately dominant over all other interests. And the proof of that is that even a copyright law only permits the creators and their estate a limited amount of time to enjoy the economic fruits of that work.
…
Attention should be paid to this question of our soul, and not simply to accounting procedures. Attention should be paid to the interest of those who are yet unborn, who should be able to see this generation as it saw itself, and the past generation as it saw itself.The original Star Wars trilogy is an incredibly important part of cinematic history and it most certainly deserves to be preserved in its original form. To alter the films and then intentionally suppress them in their original form is not only selfish but an insult to the many, many craftsman that all worked hard to create these treasured pieces of history. They’re what won all of those Academy Awards, not the Special Editions. The SEs have their place but even more so do the original theatrical versions.
And yet, the SE will be the only versions the public will be allowed to see for decades to come.
What an unjust and cruel world. No other film is treated like this. Nor is any other film more important to cinema.
Which REALLY confused me! Until I realized that perhaps Disney was never pandering to original OT fanboys(the type that built this site for instance) but rather the general public who did not care for the PT.
After all most people don’t care for the PT and therefor Disney tried to be as retro as possible(with the exception of Kylo Rens crossguard lightsaber and the brief mentions of clones). However while OT fanboys share similar opinions about the PT as the general public, the general public is probably not so concerned with the original version of SW as the hardcore SW fans are.
To answer the original poster.
This bootleg piece of shit!
The other worst thing to come out was Porkins
Nah, Porkins existence in the SW universe is hilarious.
You kidding me? The flickering is what it’s all about!
I am referring to the scene were he is fighting Darth Vader. I honestly thought that he’s lightsaber was running out of battery when I first saw it.
Star wars actually has a lot of cliches it is just that they are really old cliches from older films.
I always find it a bit disingenuous when people say that they want the original version of the films for the sake of historical novelty. I mean don’t get me wrong I don’t want to have to sit through Han talking to CGI Jabba or ROTJ Hayden Christensen, but if all Lucas had ever done was to stop Obi-Wans lightsaber from flickering I doubt anybody would have cared.
I know I wouldn’t.
Better then anything that could ever had come up with!
Too bad there are millions of other people who have this “The OT is literally perfect and no Star Wars film could ever come close” hive mind.
Judging from this forum discussions, there seem to be way fewer people who like just OT. There seems to be many who likes TFA and PT or some combination of it.
If sites like rotten tomatoes or IMDb is anything to go by most normal average movie goers actually prefer TFA over the OT or at least ROTJ.
Also the PT is not the worst abomination to ever happen to cinema according to these people either.
Am I the only person who actually prefers the '97 Jabba over the '04?
I agree with this. Fake looking CGI or not he is still more similar to the original Jabba then any other iteration of the character since.
So you like TFA?
No, of course I hate it which is why I put it one step above another star wars film that I actually like in a top 6 star wars things list.
Seriously how dumb are you?

So going by the thread title, and the fact that you left out AOTC, I can only assume these are your favorite six Star Wars films. The order is ridiculous, but at least you don’t like AOTC while liking TFA.
Of course this was just trolling for responses so I’m sure you don’t believe your list anyway.
I like AOTC but this thread is about your favorite 1-6 star wars films not 1-7.

Probably a coincident but I still like it.
I guess us poor goyims should just except that Frink is a choosen star wars fans and all he says is fact.
you could describe it in your first post rather than exclude the majority of us
Yeah, this is not a very good thread. I admit that.
Those not familiar with the EU will have no idea what I am talking about.
So let me get this straight. You people seriously fighting over whatever Nemodians are racist stereotypes or not…
…We truly are the most pathetic fanbase in the world.
Darth Vader’s black protocol droid in the comics (which is canon) uses torture devices and such on people that Vader interrogates, he also has a variety of questionable tools and has a very sarcastic attitude. The idea does seem weird, but not all protocol droids have the same personality or meaning as C3P0
I guess C-3PO and TC-14 created my stable image of how a protocol droid is supposed to talks and behave. Yeah, I am admittedly not much of a SW guy outside of the movies I admit that.
Sorry.
4-LOM, anyone?
I actually did not know that he was a protocol droid.
That’s not Threepio, it’s a bounty hunter droid that resembles him.
Still don’t you think it is kinda weird to make a protocol droid an assassin/bounty hunter? And yes C-3PX are also protocol droids.
