Messing with History



This frame is from the very end of the new 2004 DVD Edition of Return of the Jedi, where, as you can see, Anakin's Force ghost is now played by Hayden Christensen instead of Sebastian Shaw.

Other changes to the canon are found here [no spoilers, unless you're the sole remaining life form in the galazy who (SPOILER ALERT) doesn't know that Anakin Skywalker becomes Darth Vader]

(Who wants to bet that Mis-Nagid will soon post a sharp comment about how the Star Wars cannon isn't the only cannon changed by a later, agenda-driver editor? The guy can turn absolutely anything into an anti-frum polemic. It's really quite amazing. For an example, see his comment on the hotdog post below)
