IF george lucas directed Apocolypse now

[jb_617]

1. I did. I was partly being sarcastic and partly serious. Justin gave me the answer (thank you) and I?ve moved on.
2. I did. And I stand by that. Note the use of the word ?isn?t?. Short for ?is it not?. This is a question that nobody has answered yet.

For the record ? Call it something else then. Like Michael Mann did when he remade L.A. takedown, an example I should have used before. But wait, that contradicts my whole historical precedent thing ? stitched myself up there!


----------------------

What have I unleashed?

ok then in answer to 2. No its not. Theres is nothing wrong with revisiting old work and having a fiddle unless you are george lucas.

Justin,

So you think that he did it for the money?


-----------------------

One day this will all be done on computers.

[jb_617]

Thanks for clearing that up. But why does Lucas get a free pass on this one?


---------------------

If only I had the money.

[Chance1234]

lets face it, the guy really hasnt got a clue has he ? for his own protection i say put him in a box with some straw.

Are you talking about me or Coppola? (I think I keep spelling that wrong)


---------------------

Hey I just noticed my thing switched to "Senior Hostboard Member" I think that means one of you has to carry my schoolbooks.

[Chance1234]

Neither Lucas.

[twister!]

I agree totally about Lucas.

Whether Coppola's Redux was for money or not it was a more worthwhile effort than Lucas'. But I'm not sure whether Coppola would have done the Redux thing without having seen how much money Lucas made from his SW 'special editions'.
