Vader’s NOOOOOOO!! I can tolerate almost every change except that one and to a lesser extent those added rocks Artoo hides behind.

Vader’s Noooooo

I legitimately canceled my Blu Ray release when I saw this.

Hayden ghost a close second

If I could remove one change from each movie in the OT, I would remove CG Jabba, Luke’s scream in Cloud City, and Jedi Rocks.

Oh yeah I forgot haha

Edit: I just decided I would remove Ian McDiarmid as the Emperor in TESB instead.

SW - Either the Expanded Mos Eisley entrance or Greedo shooting.

ESB - Restore Vader’s "Bring my shuttle. It’s a better take.

ROTJ - Vader’s “No. NOOOO!”

I would say Greedo Shooting first, or Han shooting second. Because it is a change which actually changed the story and the Han Solo character.

Most of the other changes while bad don’t effect the story.

I have to agree with Vader’s added Noes at the end of ‘Jedi.’ The scene works perfectly with his silence, and feels much less impactful now.

Depends on which SE version. The original SE worst they did was greedo shooting first. But the added Jabba scene is a close second. The DVD SE definitely the Anakin ghost. (Assuming only one change across the trilogy)

1000% Jedi Rocks, it just ruins the movie for me. I remember the first time I saw it and cringing all the way through thinking to myself WTF am I watching lol.

I recognize how absurd this sounds over the more obvious examples, but the one I’d remove is Boba Fett’s new voice.

If I could revoke one more, it’d be the updated emperor in ESB. There’s something about the eerie prototype that I think fits in better with the movie.
