# I don't get why people get upset
and I class myself as a star wars fan

'He's spoiling it for future generations' not if they've not seen the other version he's not
'He's spoiling it for me' but you saw the original and liked it right, just don't bother with the new ones, then he hasn't changed anything!
'He's just doing it to make more money' so?

The only people that should give a shit are Lucasfilm in case it doesn't sell

# I think that's a lovely touch
not making me rush out and buy them though :D
I'd rather have the unedited DVDs from a couple of years back that everyone seemed to forget about

# i've got them
i watched a couple of scenes from the remasters and the originals and he's cleaned up a hell of a lot in the process. the originals on the dvds are the laserdisc transfer which was pretty rubbish. the remasters have much crisper colours, a hell of a lot less blur and generally look better -- until the shitty mid-90s cgi comes on when it just looks poor.

i prefer the original versions myself but then i did watch them when i was about 7, something people always seem to forget when they get all hot under the colour about it.

also, i agree, i think he's just trolling people and seeing how far he can push it before people *actually* stop buying the new release instead of just saying that they will

The Ewoks were the only thing I liked about that movie. That and Luke Skywalker. I wanted one (an Ewok, I mean).

# My problem is...
mess with YOUR movie as much as you like. Just give me the option of watching the movie I grew up with on the same format.

Thanks

Love

# I've just read that the blu rays have luke missing with his grappling hook!
For years people have said I was imagining it, but the scene exists!
Now to work out how the hell I saw it.

# That's another issue..
you can't get ALL the missing scenes and extra's without buying the 3 piles of poo to.

Lucas's marketing dept. is excellent.....for him!

# i don't understand why he doesn't release the originals on blu-ray
then those that have them on VHS and DVD will buy them all over again.

they could even do an ultimate mega bastard collection, the original theatrial release, the re-release with updated effects and the new 'Nooooooooooooooooooo' version along with 3 weeks worth of extras.

it would sell.
