I've never seen the JEDI SE. After seeing the comments about it here, I made the mistake of searching for Jedi Rocks on Youtube. It's HORRIBLE! They butchered that scene. I also found the end scene with the added "Noooooo". It's horrendous. Thank God you guys are giving us a proper home release of the theatrical version (some day).
I've been thinking about JEDI lately, and I think one reason I found it so disappointing is that I waited a long 3 years after EMPIRE to see it. EMPIRE was well worth the wait, but JEDI wasn't.
I think if I was a youngin' who plopped his ass on a couch and watched all 3 movies for the first time, JEDI wouldn't have been that bad.
