Other than that, the other change that most makes my skin crawl is the ending to Jedi. I'm not even sure if I still love the film, but the fact remains that my entire childhood was largely based on the foundation that the Ewoks have a little festival, Obi Wan and old white man Anakin show up as ghosts, and then they all sing their little song ("Jub jub/jigga ja-jub jub/ga-jub jub jibby jubbay/ja-jub jub jubh jubh jayyyy/jub ja-jub ja-jub JUB JUB/jub ja-jub ja-juuhb/jub ja-jub ja-juuhb/jub ja-jub ja-JUUHB/JUUUHB!") and this segues perfectly into the Star Wars theme to commence the credits.aox wrote:Yeah, the musical number in Jedi is the most offensive change/addition IMO.

What is really sad is that in the process was removed the only appearance without any make-up of Sebastian Shaw.swo17 wrote:Other than that, the other change that most makes my skin crawl is the ending to Jedi.

I know! That's how people know you loved (or liked if that's too strong of a word) the movie! What's the point of liking/loving a movie if you can't defend it to anyone?matrixschmatrix wrote:What?
