While I'm waiting for him to get back to me on that, I remember growing up with IV-VI. I've got DVD bootlegs of Lucas' premier VHS tapes, and I'm perfectly happy. I'll probably see III with my parents (on their nickel) like I did with I and II, but Star Wars for me is starting where it did consisting of what it did.
Han shot first.
And I know it's technically correct, but the Death Star destructions didn't need rings! It looked SO much better to have the first one seem like an implosion and the second one crumble apart. It had MEANING.
If I ever made a film, I wouldn't sacrifice meaning for content. (I'm turning into a film snob from all those film classes. Occhi would be proud--we've been analyzing westerns!)
