For a second I was worried there won't be any contrarian faggots. Yub Nub is good but this is better even though it's newer. And trust me, I'm saying this as a guy who hates sequels (and ep7) and every other change Lucas made.

Which is why Hayden is a good change. Though I wish they aged him up a bit. Make him look like he was in his mid to late 40's and it'd be perfect.

I'm actually okay with this one. Mcdiarmind is god-tier. When looking at all the horrible things George did, this little change is the least heinous, beyond cleaning up the picture/sound of course.

Considering in the same movie he turned Boba Fett from a cold badass to a kiwi, itd be hard to do worse.

Boba Fetts original voice was cold and manly. It exuded menace and determination.
Lucas dubbed over the voice with Temuera Morrisons, the guy who played Jango and his clones. As much as I love temuera despite him fucking sheep, It was a poor move by lucas.
The dub is also shit.

>>71907761
Anakin change wasn't even that bad. I mean, vader was supposed to be like 45 when he died. That guy was way too old.
>>
>>71905018
>Thankfully Lucas has no say in it anymore.
It's people like you who are responsible for driving him to sell the franchise. It will never be good again. One film with Disney and it's already become uninspired agenda pushing trash. Lucas had a vision, and his vision was pure kino.

Who knows what being a cyborg will do to you as you age.
The fact he didn't add Ewans obi-wan or young yoda (from the Eps 2 and 3) is a travesty.
There is no legitimate reason why he should've changed him. It contradicts the established universes rules, made no sense in-universe and made no sense creatively. Lucas was just a dickhead when he decided to add Christensen.
>>
>>71907807
The fact the Sith are still such a powerful threat and the Jedi are all but extinct once again shows that anakin did not bring balance to the force.
>>
>>71907872
A dickhead to who? To himself? You?

the one thing that the special editions do that make them 100x better than the originals is the ending music in return of the jedi.

I wish Lucas still owned the franchise but did the actual smart thing and step down as creative director. No matter what happened, Lucas always had final say. That needed to stop and him selling it to Disney was the worst most gut wrenching decision he could've made.

Read on to see my blog:
I loved SW beyond belief. I've played all but 2 of the SW games EVER made. I own almost every cassette, dvd and bluray. I own every book released prior to disneys acquisition.
I own tens of thousands of dollars of merchandise. I fucking loved lucas and Star Wars. But Disney killed that. I've never felt such a pain as I did when I heard he'd sold the IP. A genuine little piece of my childhoods memories died when Ep7 was released.
tl;dr Fuck you anon. I loved Star Wars and you attempting to claim otherwise is an asshat move.

A reminder that Lucas didn't film newfootage for the Hayden ghost, that is the wardrobe check footage they threw in.
>>
>>71907850
The eu made it so that Luke is to blame for her death. He said he would break her free when he gets Han and co if she helps him. This made he6 over confident and pissy during her dance, thus the tug of war.

I bet he's really enjoying being able to tell people that this new shit isn't his problem, like he's basically saying "Maybe if you guys hadn't whined so much you wouldn't have had to deal with this but now you reap what you sow and get to deal the ashes."
>>
>>71898458
George put him in assuming viewers would watch the movies in chronological order (1 2 3 4 5 6).

After finally getting to Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, you may forget why you were angry.

Suddenly the very last scene and Hayden Christensen pops up so viewers can remember why they hated the first 3 movies (granted he wasn't in Episode 1 but if you look really closely at that last scene you'll see JarJar's ghost tripping over a rock while a pie hits him in the face).
>>
>>71898458
So they can reuse him in later movies

>Too bad it was like a relationship between a bipolar sociopath with a history of violence and a woman who suffered from denial and stockholm syndrome
