Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Editing!

Rating: 10/10 (25 September 2004)

I just finished watching the latest edition for DVD of the first Star Wars Trilogy, and I got two expressly great surprises in the "Return of the Jedi", both of which came within the last few minutes before the credits. Maybe I shouldn't have been surprised though, after all George Lucas is a GREAT FILMMAKER, and this was GREAT. The first comes about 2:02 into the movie, after the fireworks on the forest moon, when you see the crowds gathering at Coruscant to rejoice that the Emperor is dead and the evil Empire is dissolved. You can clearly hear: Wesa Free! (and if you use subtitles, you'll see it too!) which shows us that JarJar Binks is still alive and kicking! Fun! What's he gonna do in Episode 7...
And just a few seconds later... back at the forest moon, when Obi-Wan, Yoda and Anakin shows up, spiritually, it ain't the figure of Sebastian Shaw that shows up... but the face of Hayden Christensen... Absolutely supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
