If he done this than he would have more fans (the new ones and the old ones). The rated R version would be the same as the PG but would probably have more violence, sex, and language, you know the standard stuff you see in movies today. But he would keep the same story. It would almost be like the rated R version would be the true version, while the rated PG version would be like a TV edited movie.
In the original versions, people who were shot with blasters really were supposed to have HUGE craters blown in them with melted skin and limbs flying. He changed that because that would certainly be an "R" rated film.

In RI now it is 18+ to see an R rated movie. Thats bull, just becuase it just happened and I just turned 17. When I went to see American Pie 2, my ID was rejected, and when I tried to sneek in they forced me out and posted guards at the entence because there was people in Jurasic Park III were just there to try to sneek in. But with no luck, even with the most clever tricks. I mean come on R rated should be like 15+, not 18+. At 15 I think that most people can relize the difference between right and wrong. See and the sad part is I have to wait until I can rent it from blockbuster, which you can rent even NC-17 movies with no ID.

Well, back to Star Wars. I think if they are not going to put an R and PG version in the theaters. They may make an "Un-Rated Version" which is growing incraslingly popular in DVDs. That is so cool, becuase unrated is unrated and anyone can buy them. But they can't be in the movie theaters, unless it is a local movie.

A little idea.....
 
I know u could do this in a Kokomo theater but i've never tried it.....and it may not work in your theater depending on how its layed out.....

But all u have to do is buy a ticket to one movie then go see another......here in Kokomo it would be really easy (although i swear i've never done it) to just walk to a different theater/movie...

Just an idea, since i'm always thinking of things....:) :D ;)

EddieMcD 14-08-2001 11:28

I can think of one theater in our area in which you can do that.

You've got to think George Lucas makes a lot of his profit from theaters. So chances are, it won't happen.

Ok, I goofed on El Dorado but my point still remains. The jokes in the Disney movies don't belong there. Little kids are smarter than most adults give them credit for. When I baby sat and took the kids to a movie they would ask me about the jokes, they got it and I could tell. They were 5-7 years old. The crude jokes really are a bad idea. Look at the first Rugrats movie, the joke about Angelica flying, little kids get that. There is def. a line and it get crossed way too much.
As for theater hopping, the best theater to do that in is the AMC 24 theaters. You gotta plan it out though. Get a paper and schedule what time you'll go to what movie based on when it's showing, you gotta buy the ticket for the theater closest to the ticket taker first though. (Yes I've done this many time before and am a pro). The reason that you can rent an R movie before you can go see it is because Blockbuster is a private store and when you get a card you sign ther rules. Usually you cannot get a card if you are under 18 unless your parents allow it. Unrated is ok but then you have people who are stupind about it, like the parents who took their you ng children with them when they went to see Hannibal, I saw adults puking in the isles and heard plenty of screaming children, the worst was the little boy behind me who was too scared to move or scream. People see unrated and assume that anyone can watch the movie.
Anyways, Star Wars needs to have the old effects to be as good as the originals.

Robby O 15-08-2001 00:38

Ever think that maybe the originals really werent that good to begin with???
 
Just read this comic, you'll see what I mean.



Perhaps that's quite true. It goes for a lot of things you grow up with as a kid. Much of the animation made in the 80's and early 90's was total trash, but I grew up on it, and as a kid, loved it. So I almost freak out when I hear older animation students trashing shows I loved as a kid. There's really just an emotional attatchment there, not a "hey, that's good, so pooh to you" kinda dealie. Anyways, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong. Then again, I'm quite the SW addict and even LIKE Jar-Jar Binks. So blah! :D

Carolyn Duncan 15-08-2001 01:05

I didn't see the original Str Wars until I was about 10 so it wasn't like I didn't know about crapy stuff. The thing that makes the originals so good is the things they did in the movie at that time. They didn't have all of the computer animation and graphics that are used do much now. It's not really trash.

Phil: "I didn't know she could fly."

Lil: "I think it's cause she's a witch."

Is that good or bad that little kids get that one?

Carolyn Duncan 15-08-2001 23:23

Well when you consider Angelica's attitude and the way she acts towards the "babies" I think it's bad. It has a big underlying theme, kids do get it.

EddieMcD 16-08-2001 16:27

Chuckie: "What's your daddy doing, Tommy?"

Tommy: "My daddy's helping your daddy catch some dates in a net."

Chuckie: "What are dates?"

Phil: "Big raisins that make you poop."

Angelica: "What is it with you babies and poop?"

Tommy: "Where do you want us to start, Angelica?"

Come on, how can you think those jokes are bad?

Carolyn Duncan 16-08-2001 16:29

I didn't say that all of them are bad, just some of them. And why can you quote these jokes? I thought it was bad that I could talk about the movies but you can quote them. I don't feel so bad now.
j/k

EddieMcD 16-08-2001 16:43

I like the Rugrats. That's why I can quote them.

Carolyn Duncan 16-08-2001 16:46

My little cousin like rugrats too, she's 7 and needs to be tied up and hung from a ceiling fan while it's running. She makes Angelica look like an angel. What does it say to you? Angelica is her favorite character.

EddieMcD 16-08-2001 16:56

Angelica looking like an angel? Is that possible?
