well, I know JEJ said he was gonna do it a while back... but i couldnt say wether or not he has actually *done* it
I think he has though.
Why woulddn't he? He recorded new stuff for the ESB dvd...why wouldn't he just do Ep 3 all at the same time? He even recorded new dialogue for a freakin toy, why not the last Star Wars film ever?
His voice is in the film, but no one is going to “officially” admit this fact. JEJ did not receive a credit in ANH. In keeping with this tradition, he has not received a credit for ROTS.
In regard to the American rating system, I found an decent article on the history of the MPAA (

Quote:
if a film uses "one of the harsher sexually-derived words" (such as fuck) once, it remains eligible for a PG-13 rating, provided that the word is used as an expletive and not in a sexual context; However, some words will automatically garner an R rating, such as motherfucker or cunt.
Quote:
if such language is used more than once, or once if in a sexual context, it usually receives an R rating;
Quote:
a reference to drugs usually gets a movie a PG-13 at a minimum, though a few movies were rated PG for mild drug references;
Here is another breakdown of what is permitted under PG-13: (

Quote:
A film like this may have more cussing than a PG (Shit, SOB, maybe 1 or 2 uses of the word fuck) stronger violence than a PG (but usually with very little blood), sexual situations (maybe 2 people rolling around in a bed but a sheet covering the "good stuff") or brief nudity (a quick boob or butt shot that does not occur during sex.)
So, it appears that with PG-13, GL has room to add a couple of “fuck’s,” an overt drug reference (no need for “death sticks"), a somewhat tame sex scene, and limited nonsexual nudity.
:mfyd:
