Most news stories nowadays are regurgitated from Reuters and AP.

What do you *think* she's going to say? Obviousy she's going to defend him. It's her father. Wouldn't you?

Does it really matter what she says?

Even though the original cuts had this, I never understood why beams out light come out of Han.

I have been lurking in this thread for months and it is a great source of entertainment. I cannot think of anything that has caused this much controversy over so many things and the thread count alone is astonishing.

Thank you all for keeping me entertained, I truly mean that.
May this thread go on for ever.
I am right there with you.

I think there's still a possibility that the Noooo and the Krayt scream are some kind of hoax, in which case some people are laughing their butts off with the global reaction on this.

The Ewok blink doesn't bother me at all because in this case it does correct a technical limitation of the time (or an oversight) and makes them more lifelike imo.

Nolan or Whedon? Just Bleh. And I doubt that any of the EU stuff will ever be made into an official movie. Lucas likes it kept seperate.

Indy,

I know she'll defend her father. I've heard her do it. But, she's more in the inside than anyone of us...and if she walks down the hall, asks her Pops if this is legit or not, he shows her the footage and it's not legit and she states on her twitter that she's seen what's on the blu ray and that all this crap over the last day is bogus, are we not going to believe her?

The Vader sound bytes and the rock in front of R2 seem pretty fake to me. Completely unnecessary and could easily have been the work of Photoshop and some after effects. The Ewok blinking looks decent though, don't mind that.

Unless the whole BDrips are fake the audio can't be a hoax. It's right in the mix in the actual rips.

I hope they are fake, but the same time - if it turns out to be true, I can live with the changes.

Agreed. It's these types of enhancements that I can get behind (along with CGI Yoda in Episode I).

Have you downloaded them, yet? I'm thinking about it (to watch on my Boxee Box), but will most likely just wait it out until September 16th.

The camera is now fixed so you get a wider perspective and a better gauge of how massive the door is as C3PO and R2D2 approach it.
