With a DVD burner it might be possible to create my own extended cut by cuttting those scenes in myself. I don't own a DVD burner yet but I believe this is possible.

Cameron still makes more interviews for them and is involved in the process.

He didn't do Terminator 3 because he thought that Terminator 2 was the end of the series. He filmed an ending where the war was stoped. I saw this scene my opinion it was horrendous. I like the idea of the Terminator series as a neverending loop where Kyle was always his father and the future is set. But go figure he didn't want to do it. He still appears to have intrest in the first two films why he keeps creating more and more versions.

Neither does the Prequals or the Special Editions. Attack of the Clones is the best movie ever.

Every movie having seemless branching is impossible but the thing about the Terminator is not only are those scenes better left in but it is directed by James Cameron who seems to be a fan of extended cuts. Aliens, Terminator 2, and The Abyss. The Terminator is in my opinon James Camerons best work and deserves an extended cut the most.

I doubt we are going to get that many releases. I was hoping for cover art to match with the prequals. I hope there isn't the final art. Plus the side should say A New Hope for Episode 4.

I was shocked these scenes were taken out. For example the scene in the forest with Kyle crying really allows you to sympasize with his character more then anything. I set up Sarahs war on Cyberdine better also. The finding of the chip and showing that it happened in Cyberdine labs was genious I thought. I was shocked Cameron thought of that then. I would love an extended cut.

Give me a break sweyland. Lukes sceam didn't do anything for or against that scene. The scream was never comic it just makes sense that he would scream. Most made the whole movie more alive more epic and just better. I also loved he cut out that horrendous ewok song. Thing is for me personally I don't want three versions of the same movie I just want whichever one is best. I wouldn't mind Lucas releasing the originals for those who want them. But for me all I want are the Special Editions.

Whos to say everyone who signed the petition will boycott the DVDs. My friend signed it saying he wants all versions but said he prefers the Special Editions and will buy the DVDs. There are many more like him.

Han is also no longer going to step on his tail in the Ultimate Edition according to the list. There is a very strong rumor that the 2004 DVDs Han will shot first. The Mos Isly animation was great so was cloud city. So was the sarlacc.

You forgot to mention the sarlacc pit. According to Lucas he originally intended for a stop motion puppet in the Jabba scene. He said Jabba was originally going to be a furry character. There are more changes that could not have been done at the time. I am also glad he took out that horrendous ewok song. If his mind changed it is mostly for the better.

Heres a link to a list of all changes Text

The Special Editions have litterally hundreds of changes. Probably around 10-15 could have been done back then. I agree that Greedo shotting first was always meant to be there is bullshit. I do dislike this change but whatever it is so small. Lukes scream what is the problem? Who cares? Why is this a bad change?

We are suppose to get a newer Computer Generated Jabba for the Ultimate Editions. Even so the current digital Jabba is not that bad but yeah it could have been better. The Puppet Jabba didn't go anywhere how hard could that be. Personally I think that the animation of the dewbacks was fine and doesn't need changing. Like I said I didn't even know the puppet dewbacks were suppose to be creatures until Lucas pointed it out.

The Wampa scene was tried and failed in the original versions. The effects department kept building Wampa suits but none of them worked properly. The Special Edition scene is definutly how it was intended. How many scenes could have been done at the time. Greedo shotting first and a couple dialog changes (most of which are better) but the majority of changes were what was attempted and failed to do on the originals.

Tough for you. Computer generated images always look better then puppets. Always puppets don't move correctly. For example the puppet dewbacks I didn't even realize they were creatures. The digital ones I noticed were creatures.

This new version looks better. True there are better war movies but Saving Private Ryan is still a good bloody movie.
