In the end, they're the ones bitter about it, not me.
I kept hitting "refresh" on my browser after I first read those posts ... I thought that maybe a server error was displaying messages from TheForce.net instead of from this site.
Oh well.
Seriously: lighten up. I'm allowed to dislike the prequels and the new Star Wars DVDs. I'm allowed to ignore them. I'm allowed not to buy them. I'm allowed to dismiss them as not part of the Star Wars canon. My life will be no less fullfilling for it. If I couldn't turn a blind eye to the prequels/new DVDs, my appreciation of the original films would be diminished, and then I really WOULD be bitter. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this site IS about appreciating the original films, yes?
Anyhow ... skyjedi2005: although I think the new Palpatine dialogue clashes with the opening of Empire Strikes Back, I don't think it affects the way the end plays out. The only thing that detracts from the ending is the fact it now includes discarded footage from Return of the Jedi.
(oh and future reference, folks: I'm a 'she,' not a 'he.')
