Irony.
Therefore, the ruling is that a written adaptation of this film, as well as cast/crew commentaries made after the film has been completed, screened, and transferred to home media, will not be allowable. Movie feats only, please. From Impediment.
I've been asked to step in to make a ruling on the matter at hand.
The primary issue in contention is the use of novelizations/book adaptations.
I refer you all to the MVF Golden Rule: What happens on screen is canon. Movie feats only.
I allow certain feats, for example, from the Star Trek television series because of the direct tie in to the movies.
Books, in my opinion, are waters I choose not to tread into. A novelization of, say, an Indiana Jones movie, while much more elaborate in wording and pace, is still not a movie; it's merely an written adaptation that, as history suggests, will improvise, elaborate, and possibly alter certain aspects of the movie it is adapting. The same goes with comic books, manga, and other written works pertaining to certain movies.
Therefore, the ruling is that a written adaptation of this film, as well as cast/crew commentaries made after the film has been completed, screened, and transferred to home media, will not be allowable. Movie feats only, please.
A much, much more suitable area for this kind of debate is, of course, the All Versus Forum where ALL source material is allowed.

I'm also curious about something:
Are people contesting the use of non-adaptation books such as the Star Wars "Essential Guide To" books?

Wait... I get cast and crew commentary not being used, but you're saying commentary from Lucas in the extended version is not allowed? That I just can't agree with if so, the person in charge of everything in re: movie production, script and the creator of the universe commentary is above all else imo

What would the extended version commentaries have that would alter any outcome?

Or overconfidence. It's all up to perception I suppose. However when looking at his other feats it's overconfidence.
