Setekh: Exactly!

Kode: That would be all fine and true, except he totally sold out. Plus it's a well known fact that 'most anything with a Star Wars brand on it will get huge sales simply by association to the original good films.

He'll make a lot of money, but at a cost of credability. A shame.

Post by: aldo_14 on May 28, 2004, 11:39:22 am
Ach, who gives a ****?

I mean, yeah - it looks wierd.

But it's a 30-second bit at the end of the film which 90% of people won't even watch, but skip through.  It's not changing the story atall, infact it's bringing it 'up to date' as it were. ... in fact, the old ending shot doesn't make sense now, given the prequels.

But it isn;t worth crying bloody murder like it's some massive alteration, because it isn't.  If your enjoyment of a film is going to be spoiled by possibly the most inconsequential, minor addition, then don't buy it.

Assuming it ain't a hoax.

When asked if the forthcoming DVDs would feature the original theatrical release versions of the trilogy or the Special Editions, Sansweet answered that the films contained on the discs would be the incarnations of the films "as George Lucas sees them today." He reminded people of the 1995 video release of the trilogy that hailed itself as the last time the original theatrical cuts would ever be available. "They weren't kidding," Sansweet noted.

It's not like Lucas is hurting for $... This may be his theory of a evolving story so he will change existing things to match the new reality (gee I sound like those idiots B&B, please shoot me now!).

  So does this mean he will F up Star Wars like they did Trek?

At least JMS hasn't sold out (yet) right? :nervous:

Exactly how does that prove that the pic is real?
It simply proves that we won't get the original 70s version released on video again.

[color=66ff00]By the same reckoning you can't all jump at HIG and say it's a fake, he may be convinced it's not a fake but there isn't really any proof from any of you that it is.

Post proof before ranting at him.

Also something strikes me about that shot, if it is a fake it's a rather good one because I could actually believe Lucas would do that, it's his style.

Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: Gloriano on May 30, 2004, 02:17:21 pm
True but that is not Proof

Why I think that is not fake

1)if that is fake that who made fake must very good making fakes
cos look that picture that is Anakin{Hayden.C] from it looks from Episode3 Anakin

2) that who made it must seen Episode3 Screens and there is none Screens from that much I know or must Hyperspace memper
and made it for fun

3)that Change fits to George Lucas plan add new Scenes To DVD release
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: Knight Templar on May 30, 2004, 03:33:00 pm
That's an editted scene. Not a new scene.
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: TopAce on May 31, 2004, 03:37:10 pm
Anakin looked like that before he turned to the Dark side of the Force.
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: Knight Templar on May 31, 2004, 03:54:33 pm
No, he looked like this:
(http://www.cswu.cz/basic/images/jedimaster.jpg)

He looked like that earlier when he had sex with the Emperor to win favour with him.


Either way, it's stipid for them to make him actually younger. He was an ass when he was younger anyway. He'd be much more 'light side' when he turned from evil anyway.

Anakin turns to the Dark side in Episode III. He is around 20 years then.

That bloke looks like to be at least 40(He may be at the age when he died, just in Jedi clothing.
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: karajorma on June 01, 2004, 02:52:04 pm
And since neither Yoda nor Obi-wan reverted to their youth why should Vader?
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: Flipside on June 01, 2004, 02:57:25 pm
Well, luke is about 20 when he faces his father, his 'father' in the edited picture looks about 19, which makes just about as much chronological sense as the rest of the series (like why does Obi Wan age about 40 years in about 20 years between the two series etc? )

Post by: J3Vr6 on June 01, 2004, 04:15:31 pm
Guys, the reason why the original movie has an old anakin is cuz he WASN'T over on the dark side when he died.  He turned back to the light side at the end, before he croaked.  So when they show him as a spirt, it would make sense that he be old.  Obi Wan and Yoda look the same as when they died.
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: Flipside on June 01, 2004, 04:20:22 pm
I don't think the Dark or Light side had anything to with it to be honest. It's just that the characters look as old as they were when they died, as simple as that ;)

Asuuming this is not a fake, which it may or may not be, we will find out when someone buys the set, It's got to be the most moronic way of regurgitating movies I've ever seen. Star Wars was a great series, and it is being killed stone cold dead :(
Title: Oh ****ing Great
Post by: Knight Templar on June 01, 2004, 06:17:34 pm
Well I'm guessing people see it as the 'light side' because the real anakin glowly looks happy and not all scarred n' **** as a glowy. Since he's not all scarred up, he's light side... err something like that.

Anyway, my point is, he'd be 'more light side' after he turns than he ever would before taking the final step into darkness, as it would take much more 'light side power' or remorse/good feelings to turn away from the dark side's power than it would to never touch it in the first place.

Lucas did not want to cast more actors. He found it better to keep the original actors so that we could recognise them[At least Obi-wan and Anakin(the then Darth Vader)].
