I think ALW changing "The Wizard Of Oz" is different from George Lucas tinkering with "Star Wars" because Lucas is changing his own child. ALW didn't create "The Wizard Of Oz". Its just that you said the issue is "similar". > PS.

I love the first two Terminator films. Of course you are right to compare "Rise Of The Machines" with "TMIL". One didn't have James Cameron on board and the other didn't have Jim Steinman on board. Actually that's a really cool comparison. Well done. | |
