Then couple a years later it all became a lie
It was the first advent of the December of 1999. My mom took me and my sisters to our local school that had a big ballroom, since they were showing movies out there, this time they were showing Star Wars Episode I the Phantom Menace and it was:
THE GREATEST MOVIE I'VE HAD EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!!!
Keep in mind I was ten so all I was seeing was: space ships and lightsabers and force, so who really cared about some small things like the plot or logic it was Star Wars! Interestingly enough I realized the fact that these were the prequels to the original trilogy by the time of Attack of the Clones, when I noticed that they were building the Death Star, That's when my dad said it that these were the prequels after the movie. So yeah I was kinda dumb way back when. By the time the Revenge of the Sith came around I was already hyped! You see the first Lego Star Wars game was out and for a brief moment I've had played the first level of Revenge of the Sith so I knew what was going to happen and it was even awesomer!
Still I didn't get the DVD box set of the Original trilogy the -99 version that is yet, only when my local library's copy of the New Hope was gone did I do that and it was great to see the New Hope once again, but this had some changes in it. The most obvious one to me was the Jabba the Hutt scene which I really didn't care for when I was younger but nowadays it makes no sense that's like if Marlon Brando would go on "making deals that you can't refuse" himself in the Godfather movies, you just don't do that! Not to mention the Jabba the Hutt looks like shit nowadays. But the scene that pissed me off was the addition of Luke talking to Biggs Darklighter just - just why? Even to this day and age it still bugs me, it makes no sense! Luke doesn't even care when he's best friend dies in the battle? Not until that one Star Wars book anyways, so why is that scene there? It still bugs me and that scene is really, really close on ruining the entire movie to me. And then there is the scene of X-wings and Y-wings flying above the atmosphere of Yavin 4 and I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate that scene!
Yes, that one scene of the X- and Y-wings flying off in space just above the Yavin IV pisses me off more than any other added scene in the New Hope. Why? Simple it looks like shit! It's some of the worst CG I've ever seen, not that the models looked that good either but they were models this is just some really really bad CG right there. But aside from those changes I really don't mind - Oh wait: Who shot first? Han. Greedo never shot. I swear to God if I ever meet that person who started this whole debate I will pay him 20€ for noticing something like that, because I've never noticed that. What about all the other changes made in the original trilogy? Well like I said I've never cared about the Empire Strikes Back or Return of The Jedi so I never cared about those changes, aside from Return of the Jedi when they changed the ending song, seriously Lucas that's not cool, no-one is allowed to touch on the work of John Williams why? Because he's a great composer! And then there is Hayden Christensen, seriously I'm more offend by the fact that Jar Jar is on the original trilogy these days.
Anyways I'm running out of time so I'm going to talk about the prequels tomorrow so till then: Live Long and Prosper Ashamana is out *snap*
