    I hope you know I'm kidding about replacing the screams. There are a lot of things they need to fix.

    I disagree. Off the top of my head:

    ANH
    The rocks in front of R2 look very bad.
    Get rid of most of the special edition changes on the way to Mos Eisley.
    They should remove the inserted Jabba scene or cut away when he walks behind him to remove the tail gag.
    Han shot first. Roll it back/fix it and leave it alone from the original.
    Lightsaber colors - fix all of them. White? Blue? Pink? Green? Red? They're all screwed up.

    ESB
    Luke's lightsaber power off sound can be heard as he exits Wampa cave but it doesn't shut off until outside the cave in next shot.
    Again, fix saber colors.

    ROTJ
    You can see the shadows of the lightsabers during the final duel.

    They could just leave the two trilogies alone and leave them as the 2011 changes. Look I know there are many changes that people don’t like, but it was completely Lucas’s right to change whatever he wanted to. I would rather have no more changes made and leave it as is with all its faults.

    Tony, you're probably right about all those things, but who cares really.

    My mother’s activism against corporate abuses like Disney pressuring the city of Anaheim to give them tax breaks was indeed an anticipated negative event for the company, and I’m flattered that you think so much of her work, but realistically I think making a stupid and unwanted Star Wars anthology film probably cost them more money and more bad press than anyone in my family could hope to.

    No, Rogue One did quite well.

    Rogue One arguably had stupidity problems but wasn’t unwanted.

    I’m aiming at the Han Solo movie.

    Wocky, describe in single words only the good things that come into your mind about your mother.

    What do you mean “only the good”? What other option would their be? Why would anyone think ill thoughts against their mother?

    Why do you get to decide what’s wanted and unwanted? Do you have a god complex?

    Answer both questions, please.

    OK, response is noted. Try this:

    Imagine for a second you're a desert. You look down a see a tortoise crawling towards you. You reach down, and flip the tortoise on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over...

    But it can't, not without for your help. But you're not helping.

    Why is that Wocky?

    Initiating action before you have formulated an appropriate plan is likely to be ineffective and may in fact cause harm. It is to the creature’s benefit that any intervention be well-planned.
