Sorry champ but a 3:41 video is a tough ask for anyone to sit through. Also I think Mike makes a pretty good allegory for what George did, comedic and light heartedly.

Also, I mean there was an original version of the films, watched for 20 years really. Maybe a few technically different versions if you want to say new crawls and 70mm changes, mono mixes, etc.

EDIT: yikes this is also the Woody Allen is innocent guy too

Explain how changes in the sound mix are trivial, but changes in special effects are not.

EDIT: I take back my faint praise of Polanski.

Woody Allen truly is scum and the more people who dismiss him and his work the better. Also, Worley is a TERF.

So no response to the points made in the video?

Concession accepted.

Another excellent video from Rick Worley:

The Cliff’s Notes version is that all the caterwauling about the “original” version of Star Wars is misplaced -not just on the grounds of the rights of the artist or owner trumping those of the consumer, but that there never really was an “original” version.

Oh, and the part at 3:26:17 where the Red Letter Moron and others show that they knows almost as little about paintings as they do about movies. Great show all around. In the words of Joe Bob Briggs: “Check it out!”
