Why? Does not the ORIGINAL Special Edition deserve to also be archived?
I mean I like the SE's - I don't like greedo or jabba - but the rest is WONDERFUL - Now that the new offical DVD's are out the ORIGINAL SPECIAL EDITIONS are gone.
I have at least three YOUNGER friends that saw Star Wars the FIRST time as the Special Editions what about their memories?
NOT everyone on this board is 30-40 years old - SOME members only really know the SE's and have only seen the originals on TV riddled with commercials and some time with missing scenes.
Think about it NO MATTER how bad ANY of you feel about the SE's - THEY also deserve to be archived restored and converted form Laserdisc to DVDr - there are some out there now but I'm sure we can make a better capture - MeBeJedi - I'll send you my SE LD's for this if your down!
Sorry for the rant but man the original trilogy is NOT the only version of Star Wars the deserves to be remembered...
