Mutherfuckin George Lucas, he said he'd never do it, said this is what we'd get then he goes and does this

 

it really IS about the money

If you're gullible enough to believe him, don't blame Lucas.

Is it wrong of me to want to slice up George Lucas with a rusty razor for releasing something I want?

 

I saw no, so I'm gonna have my cake and eat it too by buying those DVDs, yet at the same time screaming FUCK YOU GEORGE LUCAS YOU PIECE OF SHIT DIE IN A FIRE.

He is doing what everyone wants.

 

And I am one of the few who like the new ones because shit like Han shooting 1st or 2nd doesn't bother me what-so-ever.

Actually I'm mad at George for caving in, whatever silly reasoning he had for the SE I respected him for sticking to it.

 

I'm not sure if I'll pick these up, I really have no problem watching the SE versions

I don't have a problem with the SE trilogy either, but I still want the originals.

Nothing wrong with that.

 

How "limited" will this set be? Because if it truly is "limited" I WILL buy it... and then resell it on eBay.

Exactly I have the orignals when they where released on video for the first time and now i have the se on dvd. I need to have a lot of extra cash for me to get this.

I have no problem with the SEs, and in many ways prefer them (a lot of the special effects in the battles have been cleaned up, I always hated how the Snowspeeders were transparent in the original). I'm likely going to pass on them, unless I get some sort of urge to go out and get them when they are released. Personally, I think those that despise the SEs and love the Originals have too much time on their hands as the changes are very minor and don't affect the story or plot at all.

Don't bitch. If you didn't want the altered versions, you didn't HAVE to buy them back in '04. I never had any problems with the changes Lucas made. They're his movies, and he can pretty much do whatever he wants with them. If you don't like it, you don't have to buy them. At least now all the Greedo vs Hans people can stop whining over 2 seconds of footage from Episode IV. Yes, I will most likely end up buying the new set along with all the rest of you.

Of course it's all about the money. After these DVDs, he will release the Ep. I-II-III boxset and, a year or two after that, he will release the complete Star Wars set with Ep. I through VI. I own the 1997 special edition and it's still in good condition, I won't pay again for movies that I already have.

 

The major complaint with the special edition was Greedo shooting before Han. I think that seeing Hayden Christensen instead of Sebastian Shaw is a much bigger crime.

This cracks me up. For two years, all I hear is that people want the original trilogy in the pre special edition format released on DVD. Then he announces it and most of the responses fall into one of two categories:

 

1.) Greedy Lucas is out for more cash.

 

2.) I'm not buying them becuase I already bought the previous DVD set.

 

Poor guy can't win for losing. He finally does what fans have been begging him to do and, in general, the reaction is mosty "I don't want them and I don't care."
