Video: 4 Year-Old Finds Out Who Is Luke’s Father, Has Appropriate Reaction.
It must be the Autumn’s nostalgia-laced air, but I find this video to be several shades of awesome. A father tapes his son’s reaction to finding out Vader is Luke’s father for the first time. Ah, memories.

‘Star Wars’ Blu-Ray Breaks Records. Oh You Douches.
It’s disheartening to know that for every level-headed dude or dudette I come across here at OL or across the internet, there’s an insane amount of sycophantic Lucas ass-worshippers. I know a good amount of people who swore off buying the the Star Wars Blu-Rays because a) three of the movies were garbage and b) the changes to The Trilogy were unacceptable.
It appears we’re in the minority.
Video: Vader’s ‘Nooooo!’ Inserted Into Classic Movies. T-Rex Goes Emo!
There’s a point where you need to begin to learn to laugh at the travesties. This video infuses classic movies with the horrendous Darth Vader “Nooooo!” which once was only in Ep. III but has since infiltrated The Trilogy.
It’s good shit.

Did you think Lucas started smashing the original trilogy into bits starting back with the Special Editions in 1997? You’d be wrong. I knew he had tinkered before, but I never realized the shit began back the year of its actual release.

Deleted ‘Empire Strikes Back’ Scene Sees Han Going Full Douche.
There’s a delete scene from Empire Strikes Back making its way around the internet from the upcoming Star Wars Blu-Ray release. It’s pretty sweet, if you think that Han Solo acting like an even douchier misogynist is sweet. Just kidding! I sort of enjoy it. Buy that infernal piece of crap mutilated collection sorts of enjoy it? Please!
Official Omega-Level Rebel Alliance Update: Kickstarter Is Actually a Part of the Evil Empire
Hello, Omega-Level Rebel Alliance.
Last week, I offered it up to you fine people here at OL whether or not it was a good idea to start a Kickstarter campaign to buy the Star Wars franchise to save the original trilogy, and the response was overwhelmingly positive. Not only did we decide that it was a most worthy venture, but there was simply no other realistic option; creating a Kickstarter in order to raise enough money to buy Star Wars from George Lucas was clearly the right thing to do.
George Lucas Spoke Out Against Changing Films In 1988. Body Snatched, IMO.
Last George Lucas post of the day. I promise. This one is too delicious to pass up. Earlier this summer, Steven Spielberg said he regretted making changes to E.T. and spoke out against digital changes in general. I said, derpa!, George needs his friend to talk some sense into it. Well it turns out Lucas understood this concept.
Back in 1988.
The Omega-Level Rebel Alliance: Let’s Create a Kickstarter Campaign to Buy Star Wars
Hey, OL readers.
In case you missed it, Caffeine Powered posted yesterday (and today) about how George Lucas is, once again, messing with the glory of the original Star Wars trilogy. Understandably, we all found it horrendous. Then Seth, one of our finest commenters, came up with a pretty great idea: It would be cool if all Star Wars fans could pool money together in order buy the movies/franchise. I heartily agreed with him and now I offer it up for debate: Should Omega-Level back this enterprise and create a kickstarter campaign dedicated to raising the insane amount of money needed to buy the Star Wars franchise? And if we were to do such a ridiculous thing (that is, make a kickstarter, not actually raise the necessary billions), what would we stand for? Caffeine Powered and I agree that preserving the original Star Wars trilogy and offering a pure blu-ray set of them would be priority number one. But is there anything else we could do? What would be our Omega-Level Rebel Alliance credo, our mission statement?
Video: More Star Wars Blu-Ray Changes: Death Star Run, Artoo…Hiding Better. I’m Not F**King Kidding.
Ah well whatever what the fuck! This is fucking madness. Lucas has truly pulled down his pants and gleefully, happily shit out kernels of hate and comeuppance for us fans daring to point out that the prequels sucked. Now he’s just changing shit. It’s amazing. Like the bored fat fuck he is. He’s added more X-Wings to the Jedi Death Star run. Okay. Whatever. Needless but fine.
Also?
Now in A New Hope, R2D2 is hiding better behind rocks. Oh, and Jabba’s Palace’s door looks massive. And pointless.
Fuck all this noise.
