I personally don't understand the problem behind the updated versions at all! It's not like Greedo shooting first actually changes the story in any way. Just points out Han isn't a cold blooded killer. He was a Pirate, not an Assassin.
And I don't understand why people would get annoyed at updated special effects being added. End of the day one of the prime attractors of SW was always special effects. So it makes sense to me to add stuff to movies whose effects are getting outdated.
If you want Lucas to go f*** himself then throw all his movies in the bin. Or sell them on Ebay.
Glorious.
Obviously you didn't read what I wrote, since not a single thing you said had anything to do with it.
Lucas needs to stop re-editing movies and not allowing movie-goers to see the original films in their classic form. ie He can go **** himself for that. That's it. Sounds like I'M not the whiner here.

Lucas is giving most of the 4 billion to charity. So calling him a money-grubber is just plain wrong.And coming from a 'die hard fan' who has been plenty pissed at him for years, if he goes through with that promise then he gets a free pass on the prequels and anything else irritating he does in the future. It's a staggering act of kindness and selflessness worthy of praise.
This news did not come out until after my comment, which is news I greatly respect.

And also people in another timezone
Also with Lucas he was saying time for new people to do the movies because of the fans disliking the last lot of Star Wars movies.........in other words he gave in and actually listen to the fans.

You're still not getting the point.
You can still purchase the original films in their classic form.

Yeah but it obviously makes him such a top guy that people should really just back off on the personal insults.
End of the day he made the prequels which the OT refers to. If you hate them then ignore them and just watch the Originals. What's the big deal?

He's actually always been very charitable. Calling him a "money-grabber" is a personal insult which is just completely uncalled for.

Oh please. He can go cry into his various awards, income, and cinematic triumphs. Me insulting him won't blow up his Death Star.
No but it's quite petty. And a big shame that so many "fans" of the Original SW feel the need to keep personally insulting the guy who created the source of their fandom in the first place.

Dark Empire is a very tacky and kiddish comic book. And the resurrection of the Emporer is against Lucas's vision anyway.
