It has become apparent over the years that George Lucas likes to spite the fans who complain about the constant changes to the Star Wars saga (especially the original trilogy) every time that series is introduced on a new format.
Case in point, the Star Wars Blu Ray release that’s coming in September.
More changes have been made to the original trilogy (and some to the prequels)… including blinking Ewoks designed to scare people into horror beyond imagination, a CGI Yoda to replace the puppet Yoda in Phantom Menace (a chance that kinda, sorta makes sense, but goddamn, the puppet displayed more acting range than the CGI model), and of course, the most infamous changes and the one that’s been getting the most venom since Greedo shooting first in 1997…
They added the Noooo to the throne scene.
You see, it makes sense to add the Noooo because they think the audience is stupid (fuck you, Rick Berman! oh wait…) and won’t get the subtle build to Vader’s redemption… or something.
The sad thing is that it comes off as an amateurish dub job rather than… something.
Yep, thank god I didn’t upgrade to Blu-Ray. Say YES to Betamax!
TO TOP IT OFF…
The countless reviews over at Amazon.com for this set (a set that has YET TO BE RELEASED!) is downright hysterical. Mostly one-star reviews bashing the set, with the few five-star “reviews” being nothing more than spiteful people telling other spiteful people to quit their whining because they haven’t seen the final product yet.
People, news flash for you… STOP YOUR WHINING!
The people bashing this Blu-Ray release haven’t seen the movie. The people bashing the people bashing this release haven’t seen the final product either. I think it’s downright ridiculous that something that isn’t even out yet is up for review. Wait until it comes out and then bash/praise it. You’re all looking like idiots here!
