***The "Darth Editous" Episode IV DVD Info and Feedback Thread*** - a partially "de-specialed" DVD

So, now that Editous has sent out his copies, what do you all think. I personally think it rocks and this is the version I will put in my DVD player when I want to watch Star Wars - this is how the special editions should have been: a corrected but not bastardized version of the movie. Anyway, like I said, I love it, and it's so nice to see those horrible lightsaber jump cuts fixed, but I still have an issue with the green R2 unit. What's everybody elses views?

Not even getting into dialogue changes, but it NEVER bothered me at any age that the image of the Emperor changed between films. NEVER.

I totally agree. In fact, the original ESB Emperor looks more than the ROTJ Emperor than the new inserted McDiamid Emperor. What is with that make-up??

No shit Chaltab

Glad you’re around to tell us these things. Chewie, take the professor out back and beat the shit out of him.

Also, does anyone remember before epiosode 3 Rick McCallum said we would find out why Boba Fett hates the skywalkers so bad and is intent on hunting them (not that I ever had that notion, but Rick seems to think we should). Well, did anyone get anything from Episode 3 to explain this? I didn't.


boba stats clearly in one of the EU books that his fight was with the jedi not the skywalkers, so i think you heard wrong.

No, McCallum said the skywalkers. I remeber I found it strange because I didn't even realise Boba had a problem with the skywalkers in the first place. Also, McCallum said that Episode 3 would shed light on the subject - we already saw in episode 2 why Boba dislikes the Jedi in general.

Indeed.
I'm 24. I used to do the whole clubbing and drinking thing, but, truth be told, I never truly enjoyed it. Now I'm older and not at school (peer pressure, etc) I have quit drinking and just do what I wanna do. Chaltab, I'm with you man, you sound like a smart dude for realising so early.
By the way, I'm not saying clubbing or drinking is bad, just not my thing, and evidently not Chaltab's, and he is cool enough to say 'it's not my thing so I'm not doing it'.

I would turn her to the carnivorous side, given the chance!!!!


Seeing as this thread is already littered with profanities I thought I should point out that a far more fitting analogy would be "I'll have her chomping down on a hot dog given the chance".
Juvenile, I know, but hey.

Well, a lot of the Naboo stuff was filmed on location in Italy, so that's why it was so breathtaking. Mustafar reeked of CGI, though. I don't really remember Kashyyk, as I blanked out during that pointless Wookie battle, but I remember that Geonosis was a disaster. Kamino was pretty cool, though, but there really wasn't much planet-wise to duplicate there. Water.

Come to think of it, I don't even really remember the Wookiie battle...
