More Star Wars changes

Guess like most folk, biggest problem i have with Revenge Of The Sith is the crappy stumble and "Nooooooo" from Vader at the end (will someone please wipe my brain of it please). So, not too happy to find that on the Jedi Blu Ray he does it AGAIN after he's chucked the Emperor down the shaft.
Can handle the Ewoks now blinking (but would've prefered them wiping them and putting in an earlier, better design) and Obi-Wan now making a much louder Krayt Dragon roar, but not that.
George, stop fiddling

The Krayt dragon noise is a change of a change, like Jabba was in the DVD set. It's obvious he hasn't a f**king clue what he wants, except for more money off the fans !! I refsed to buy the Blu-ray set before these changes but now it has utterly convinced me that Lucas has lost his mind !!

Its his playground and he can play with it as much as he wants. But this constant tampering, without giving anyone a choice to buy the original version anymore, is what really hacks me off.
Future generations will only ever see these crass fiddled versions and never the actual 3 films that started the following and earned him his fortune

I'm seeing reports that makes it sound like this is the first time he's changed the Krayt Dragon noise, when it's the 2nd, there'll be people out there who've never seen the original untouched versions !!

Exactly. Exactly. And what was wrong with the Krayt Dragon in the first place? Sounded fine to me.
And why make the Ewoks blink? They'll always be short folk in teddy bear outfits and no amount of tweaking will detract from that. Unless of course you remove them completely and put in something short, but non cuddly. Then i'd approve that

But yuor still gonna buy it and Lucas knows it.

Even if I had the cash to buy it I wouldn't, and at this moment in time there are far too many GOOD Blu-ray's that I still want to buy when I have the spare money !!

Just watched the new Jedi Blu Noooo clip. It's terrible!

Mangamax said...

It sure is. But, unlike Andrew, i have to get it (you know me so well Bronze). Yeah, the fiddles are crap - but i can fast forward through them. And get the "Its a trap!" leading into the most astonishing second of Star Wars, the Falcon blasting out of Mos Eisley, the Star Destroyer overhead, the Walkers etc etc etc, all in Blu ray and on a 50 inch telly. I can't NOT get it.

The Bronze said...

That's the problem isn't it.
You have to get it although it will wind us up.
Still, give us another thing to rant over, just like new Who.
Hey Lucas, why not leave the original films alone and just re-make them how you wanted to in the first place.
