[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] He's said as much in an interview -- that he's got a bunch of guys working for him that are afraid to tell him something's a bad idea. He cited Jar-Jar, saying that if even one person had said "Um, George..." the character would probably have ended up being realised very differently, if not omitted altogether. My beefs with the Special Editions are mostly with the clumsy way the new footage has been cut in with the old. The film quality is different, for one thing. And the CGI is too "smooth", for another. Add to that the things that should have been fixed but weren't (many elements of the Jedi space battle, among other things), the things that were fixed but shouldn't have been (the cantina aliens, among other things), and the things that were added halfway (like changing the story to R2 getting away from the bog monster on his own, but not adding the CGI rockets, among other things), and you get some very halfassed efforts on the silver screen. Jedi has always felt mediocre to me, anyway. The only part of that movie that enthralls me as much now as it did when I was nine is the stuff aboard the Death Star (and in, the reactor assault being my favorite part of the space battle). George should have done whatever it took to keep Irvin Kirschner on for the third movie. Richard Marquand's input really watered down the story. --Jonah P.S. They were supposed to be wookiees, dammit! [/QB][/QUOTE]
