QUOTE=Ben Lahnger;673206]At this point I don't trust Spielberg or Lucas to make a decent sequel product out of anything they've made in the past. In fact, I wish they'd stop remaking everything they've done before (like digitally replacing the Fed's guns in "E.T." with walkie talkies or editing the original "Star Wars: A New Hope" to make Han Solo shoot second after Greedo) and stick to making nothing but new properties.[/quote]

I agree with you Ben, it was wrong of both Spielberg and Lucas to do what they did. The compositing of walkie talkies in the 20th anniversary version of `ET`, over the shotguns the police and feds were holding in the original 1982 version of the film, was absurd.

The same goes for Greedo shooting first in the 1997 special editions of the Star Wars trilogy, and the revised musical number in `Return Of The Jedi` *shudders*

What was the point ?
