George Lucas infuriates Star Wars fans with "my ass" original version of Star Wars.
Published by Julia Volkovah under on 10:32 AMGeorge Lucas has again infuriated Star Wars fans with new Blu-Ray releases of the original, non-enhanced versions of Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. For years, fans have lobbied Lucas to release a high-quality version of his original trilogy, instead of the controversially altered versions released in 1997. However, excited fans expecting to finally see their much-campaigned-for releases have been outraged to find that the new discs contain a huge image of George Lucas's ass superimposed over the film.
Lucas has defended the decision, saying "I feel that the choice was a correct way to show my appreciation to the fans."
