I saw the tweets about this today, and I was like oh yeah, I remember hearing about that. And then I saw the pictures and just— wow. What it would have meant to have these women in the movie, all this time. I can’t properly articulate it but it’s hitting me unexpectedly hard. Wow thats a shame, even a nice old lady too. These Space Valkyries should have been left in. They really should have.

I lived, ate, and breathed Star Wars from age 2 until 2005 when RotS finally beat the enthusiasm out of me, and I have NEVER, EVER in all my reading on behind-the-scenes and makings-of heard of these shots. It’s a shame there was no relaunched edit of the original trilogy they could have slipped these in OH FUCKING WAIT THERE’S BEEN LIKE 3 OF THOSE NOW. Fuck. FUCK. Whoever decided to edit out and bury these needs to french kiss an angle grinder. I want to see the old lady in the A-Wing. Seriously, it’s like, she’s somebody’s grandma. Some kid in the Outer Rim Territories got greased by the Empire for seeing something she wasn’t supposed to see, and her grandma, the bush pilot, decided “Fuck this, I’m gonna strap on an fighter and make the Empire fucking PAY for the moment it decided to fuck with MY FAMILY.” DON’T. MESS. WITH. GRANDMA. These are quickly being put into the “always reblog” category. Whenever there is a war, there are women who are warriors. Then they get erased from history. Happens in real wars and fictional ones alike. Less than 5% of general aviation licenses go to women. If these had been left in, you can bet that number would be higher. ^^^That knocked the breath out of me. I just can’t believe they not only took them out, but refused to put them back in during the seventeen times they updated the movies. And of course the only possible explanation for this is: you do not belong here. Literally though. How many stupid remasters have they done but THIS gets left out? Ugh -- source link
