Maybe George Lucas will follow his lead…
Story here.
The only way George could atone for his sins is to withdraw every “fixed” version of 4, 5 and 6, reissue them on Blu-Ray in the original forms, and destroy every vestige of the prequels. Then immolate himself.
Steven seems to have a bit of a soul.
Will Michael also be forbidden from going as a terrorist for Halloween instead of a hippie?
Man, that change irked me more than the walkie-talkies. Saying “you look like a hippie” sounds like something a parent in a 1960s sitcom would say. Seeing as the mom would have most likely grown up in the 60s herself, she may have very well been a hippie. At least they could have changed the line to “You’re not going out looking like that” or something more generic, since the costume obviously didn’t go with the revised line.
Dunno, there’s something insidiously Newcokian about this whole endeavor. Won’t they just be encouraged to make more fan-roiling “improvements” just so they can later cash in by going back to the original formula?
This is the only answer.
I will accept “roll in honey and eaten by fire ants” in lieu of immolation.
Nah, she was a Stepford wife. Well, actually it looks like she was a Stepford maid to a Stepford family.
I don’t know about that - I heard for the 40th Anniversary release of Jaws, he’s replacing Quint’s Garand with a tranquilizer gun, and they just tow Bruce far out to sea.

George Lucas got ***dunned ***for making adjustments to his “Star Wars” films…

Isn’t that just wrong?
Yeah, that didn’t sound right to me either. MSNBC isn’t known for the most strenuous journalistic standards with their Entertainment news.
I saw the “enhanced” version of E.T. when it came out 10–12 years ago, and for the life of me, I couldn’t spot a single “improvement” to the film, other than that purple glow around the spacecraft and (of course) the line about dressing up as a terrorist. Did I miss something, or what?!?
Fun fact, guns were never “removed” from E.T. The original cut of the movie and the enhanced cut have always both been available.
I remember a couple of added scenes, like one of ET in a bathtub during Elliot’s sick day. It wasn’t really billed as enhanced though, just rereleased.
Yeah, I kind of figured people realized that already.
Except now he’s replacing the Reese’s Pieces with M&M’s.
I thought removing the guns was stupid and looked bad. But having them run around with guns in their hands was stupid to begin with.
By the 40th anniversary they’ll be Skittles.
I just hope they don’t move the location to Florida.
Z: We’ve had some break-ins in my neighborhood and there’s a real suspicious guy. This guy looks like he’s up to no good or he’s on drugs or something.
911: OK, is he White, Black, or Hispanic?
Z: Brown, I think he might be an illegal alien.
911: Did you see what he was wearing?
Z: Yeah, a dark hoodie like a gray hoodie. No, wait, it’s just a blanket wrapped around his head
