I don't even think it was in e...It wasn't. I don't even think it was in early drafts of <i>The Empire Strikes Back</i>. The thing is, it's very hard to learn about the original plan because George Lucas has (had? he's not in charge anymore) this idea about there being a single version of Star Wars which is the revised, revised, <i>revised</i> edition.<br /><br />Some of that is reflected in his singular lack of effort to preserve the film of the original movies. Once the original film is gone, the only high definition version will be the blu ray version.<br /><br />Another striking example is that Han Solo's "I know" was improvised on set and thus never in the script, but when Lucas released what was supposedly the shooting script he edited it to put the "I know" in there so people wouldn't know there had been another version even though Lucas <i>was the one who originally told us all about how Ford had improvised the line</i> (because the original ["I love you too,"] wasn't working.)chris the cynichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06872875475212333027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889388775673754833.post-36988941081972945922015-09-13T02:46:04.393-04:002015-09-13T02:46:04.393-04:00It's a good way to put the scene differently.....It's a good way to put the scene differently... and perhaps a better way to play that out better than the fix that the cannon did.<br /><br />I'm convinced that Vader being Luke's father wasn't the original plan.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04335012748811715793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889388775673754833.post-88761302115888837072015-09-07T19:40:29.608-04:002015-09-07T19:40:29.608-04:00Pretty cool.Pretty cool.Stardusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00132286380127316140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889388775673754833.post-66220820341121506682015-09-07T14:47:18.788-04:002015-09-07T14:47:18.788-04:00Still too many people for Leia to be, but yeah, th...Still too many people for Leia to be, but yeah, that's a pretty good fixit.Lonesparkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16278753827545905559noreply@blogger.com
