No Jabba scene, Han shoots first that's one of the reasons why it's better than the SE.

So Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi won oscars for effects and is hated by many non Star Wars fans for ruining hollywood because its focus is on CHARACTER?

Maybe being 6, 7 or 10 year old little kiddies watching Star Wars for the first time and getting blown away have something to do with this distorted version of reality. Nostalgia can do a lot of things, and I actually appreciate the choice at least to see the OT in their original form, which Lucas should give fans sometime soon, maybe when HD-DVD or Blue-Ray technology kicks in allowing for truly massive storage and multiple versions of a film to be stored in one disk. That said, I really don't mind the changes at all.

You know, you would think that if Lucas released all versions on dvd they would make even more money than they are now.

Lucas doesn't have an original vision and he never did. It's not a crime, it's just inconvenient for people who want differing editions of the movies. Some of us want A, some of us want D. The way Lucas works, things change pretty often. I bet you any money Luke and Leia weren't sisters in 77. That's just the way the guy works, he changes things because he's obsessive complusive and continues to think that there's ways of improving the movie. It's unfortunate but it's all too common with filmmakers and artists of all kinds. Heck, I do it sometimes. (No one complains because not many people see my movies).
