Star Wars SE -- wtf?

[Mark Mullins]

You guys know that Spielberg asked Lucas if he could direct Episode III? Naturally Lucas turned him down; which is understandable. But on the flip side it's also a downer. No offense to Lucas, but the guy can't direct. He is doing a nice job tieing the earlier episodes into 4, 5, and 6 though.

If you guys want to see the worst perversion of Star Wars ever created look for the Star Wars Holiday Special. This wasn't Lucas, this was the corporate TV network who owned the rights to Star Wars at the time. It's enough to make any Star Wars fan crawl under a rock and hide.

Find it here....


Ohh yeah, I hate Ewoks.....

Ewok Adventure < Holiday Special.

That's probably the only time I've ever use < in such a context. Cool.

I'm a big SW fan and I think most of the changes Lucas has made are for the better. But some of my friends won't buy the DVDs just because Greedo shoots 1st....WTF? Don't be so picky. :rolleyes2

And BTW, the Ewoks movies both OWN the holiday special.

that's not the only reason, just the only reason we've exampled here

[XenoSphere]

I know all of the reasons, believe me.
But in my eyes, they can all(most) easily be overlooked.

if u were a true SW fan as u say you are, then u'd b pissed like the rest of us

[XenoSphere]

There was a short period of time when I was pissed. But that time is long gone.
