Re: Poppycock Camilla Send a noteboard - 08/08/2010 01:07:11 PM
For ROTJ I still like the old version better, mostly because of the music in Jabba's palace and the Ewok celebration song. I also like the old ghost better, although it does make sense that young Anakin shows, because that's when he ceased to exist, if you will.

He becomes Anakin again when he kills the Emperor. So technically, he dies as Anakin, and the force ghost should reflect that.

That one line of voice acting for Boba doesn't bother me the slightest, but then again neither does Greedo shooting first.

The voice line bothers me because with no face for Boba Fett, the voice is one of the few personal characteristics we get. And I know it. And I have heard it since I was a kid, and now suddenly they have changed it. It bugs me. Bugs me.

I see. Probably wasn't such a big deal for me because I saw the German version 20 times before I saw them in original.

Greedo shooting first (or, as it now appears, them shooting AT THE SAME TIME) bothers me mainly because it is a sort of hyper-correction panicking about Han being a good guy.

I think what bothers me about the internet complaining about this so much is that if Lucas filmed it like that back in the 70s no one could have said "But waaait, Han is a scoundrel, he would have shot first!" It's just not that big a deal and doesn't make Han any more good or bad.


No, it is the change that is annoying. Of course it is. But it is mainly annoying because there is no reason for it except very silly political correctness in the worst sense of the term.

I take it you are among those wise people who deny the existence of the second trilogy? Legolas - 08/08/2010 11:40:16 AM 924 Views
