Seems like George Lucas couldn't help himself again when he messed with the Blu-Ray release of ROTJ.  When Vader decides to kill the Emperor and save Luke, apparently now Vader has to yell "Noooo!" to really drive the point home.  Ridiculous.  What is it with him and Spielberg(among others) who feel the need to go back and fix what wasn't broken.

Idunno. Sounds fake. But with Lucas you never know.

Pretty certain this is true, Rob.  Originally read about this on yahoo news and then found a slew of articles b!tching about the changes.

Next thing you know he's gonna put an older version of Hayden Christensen's face on Anakin when Luke takes the helmet off Vader. For all his brilliance, Lucas can be a real dumbsky sometimes.

There's a clip on Youtube of it. It's pretty much Vader's 'No' at the end of ep 3. Kind of sucks, since I always thought the wordless sacrifice better. Also he's got rid of the Yoda puppet from episode 1 and made it all CG now, and in also the ewoks have digital eyes and blink now. And he's also changed the noise Obi-Wan makes when he scares away the Tusken Raiders. He just can't seem to help himself. It's a shame.

Not content with losing any kind of talent he had, he's seemingly desperate to massacre the only things he did well.

He did once make a comment that a film is never finished, it's just abandoned at some point.

Clealry he doesn't know when to let go.

If it's true then George Lucas continues to ruin Darth Vader's character.  The guy I grew up with definitely didn't say "noooo" for anything.  


Be excellent to each other

He lost me with the mess that was Episode 1. Didn't bother to see the next two.

I still have fond memories of seeing Star Wars in the cinema as a 15 year old. I didn't see TESB or TROTJ at the cinema, only on TV years later.

Remember seeing the trailer for SW at a movie a few months before it came out and just sat there in awe, saying, I gotta see this movie.

I agree that some things, such as Vader's sudden outcry, seem a bit uneeded (in fact, it actually creates a slight continuity error, given Papaltine's reaction) and the question of Obi Wan's dragon howl is nether here nor there. Ewoks with eyelids? Yoda looking a little better? Some things are fine by me.

Sadly...does does Greedo still shoot first?
Did Lucas correct the cartoony Jabba he inserted in A New Hope? (Which, in turn, leads to a continuity error when Jabba is seen in Phantom Menace in terms of appearance)

How about giving the fans the change they want- like Boba Fett either escaping the Sarlacc Pit or removing (at least) the Sarlacc burp after Fett falls in?

Did Darth Vader put a lightsaber to Jar Jar's throat? Or rather, in it?

Noooooooo!!!!

Sadly, it's very confirmed.
