But do you agree that the theatrical release conveys the message of the film better? That Lucas has become part of the problem he'd envisioned?
Regardless, I want that DVD.
I love the car (Porsche, I believe-?).
Chicks dig the car.

In a word, Yes.
And the car is a Lola T70 Mk.III

Great movie, but has ANYONE done a movie that predicts a future of FREEDOM?

Or does Hollywood only hire employees who do predictive programming for the Police State?

Does that help explain the lack of protest against the current Police State?

I mean, Amerikans now submit to pedophile RAPEscanners at airports, and worse.

You should get right on that. It's your life's work.

That's crazy.

Hey- do all those "SOLD"s mean the economy is roaring again?

Nah - that's just racing! Toad Hall DOES kit out some very nice vintage race cars, though. And that particular car still wears the name of the great John Surtees, who is the only driver to ever win World Championships on both two AND four wheels. That name on the car (it was one of the many that he actually raced and won in), AND his own signature above it (he signed it in Sharpie marker a couple years ago) make it worth quite a bit as a piece of rolling history.

Heck, for the very, very rich, when is the economy NOT roaring?

Of course! AU is loaded! That explains it!

Back to THX-

I thought the FX additions were kinda obvious, but nothing bad.

Oh, about 60 years of Star Trek comes to mind, amongst others.
