Well, Yoda doesn’t quite sing it. That would be supercool. But I appreciate the sentiment anyway.

question of the day: How much can George Lucas alter ‘Star Wars’ before it’s no longer ‘Star Wars’?

I think we can agree that Star Wars is Lucas’s property to do whatever he wants with. But there must come a point at which Star Wars no longer feels like something the fans want to embrace.
