Ugh, Make Them Stoooopppp...

Okay, so I wasn't jumping around throwing confetti after yesterday's Blu-Ray update. Maybe it would have been smarter to wow people with the quality of picture and sound they're going to get with this edition, as in, "This is going to ROCK on your HDTV! Go buy a Blu-Ray player now! They're on sale at Best Buy! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

But even I got quickly sick of the peanut gallery whining and I wasn't even going out of my way to find it. I don't like the cover art. I won't buy it unless it's the original 1977 theatrical cut. I don't want to see Greedo shoot first. Wah wah wah. At this point, I'd make a version of ANH where I CGI in Dave Filoni, then have him shoot both Greedo and Han. That's how annoyed I am with the whole thing. There's nothing Lucasfilm can possibly do to make these people happy. Nothing. Honestly, I don't get why they bother to get up in the morning.

Buy the Blu-Rays, or don't. It's just that easy.

I agree, even if I'm on the fence about the whole thing. For me, it's a monetary issue. If there's significant SE-style updates, or loads of new deleted material (for BOTH trilogies, and not just the OT), then I'll buy it happily. If not, I'll just watch the cut scenes on YouTube until the price goes down enough.

Oh, damn! The "Han shot first" lot is the worst :((

I. Don't. Care. Who. Shot. First.

I never have, and I never will.

I'm not buying the Blu-Ray set, because I don't wish to spend my money on it, nor on the purchase of a Blu-Ray player.

Which is behavior the whiners would do well to emulate.

LOL same old story... The more things change the more they stay the same, right? That's the Star Wars fandom for you. :P I would've been disappointed if no one brought the infamous 'Han shot first' thing... They'll never get over it.

I hear you, girl. Those poor folks at Skywalker Ranch just can win at any of this. What is wrong with all those fans, its like they need an excuse to be angry.

Whoops! Meant "can't win". Sorry. :)

They say they won't buy it but they will. Just like they bought tickets to the "horrible" prequel films. If you don't want to buy the SE's, then don't buy it. But find a better way to waste your time than whining about it for the past 15 years. There are more important things in life.
