Even after the Greedo shot first crap, and even after the shitty prequals, I was still looking forward to Episode 3. I was looking forward to it because even after such grand acts of stupidity, George Lucas was still the man who gave me the original trilogy. Not any more. After Episode 1, all my friends would talk nothing but trash about the man, and I always stood up for him. Not any more. Fuck you, George Lucas.

Man, I don't know what to tell you. If you didn't see this coming before, you should have. But I still have mine on VHS and while the quality isn't as good, it's kind of how I prefer it. The old film look it is kind of nostalgic. Plus he said he was going to fix some of the errors in the original special editions. It's his movie so I guess he can do with it as he pleases. I'm still gonna buy the SE DVD original trilogy.

I'm not buying anything of his anymore. Like the digitalbits peice said, its been vaguely rumored for a while now, but this is the closest to official word we're ever going to get. Hell, I just saw the news on CNN a few minutes ago.

You know what, I was so pissed when I bought the re-release of the originals on LD, only to have the SE box set come out like a year later, so I never did get those. I guess I made the right choice after all.

No biggie for me. Lord of the Rings is my Star Wars now.

I'm kinda with Green and Pepsi here. I was Lucas's bitch up until Ep. I, but now, I'm really not on his side anymore. Fuck. Fucking burnout.

It's funny Pepsiman said that... I'm starting to think those kinds of things...

What the hell!? I grew up watching the originals, they made me a Star Wars fan. God, throwing away those effects just because he doesn't like them.... what an asshole.
