I guess I’ve never understood the whole fascination with Shaw (probably because of my age). I remember I only owned VHS tapes of the originals as a kid and I always thought it was really disconnecting and immersion breaking to see a grandpa ghost of Anakin in ROTJ. Even at that age I knew there was no way he should be that old at that point (I saw the prequels first). It honestly kinda ruined the movie for me as a kid because I had a hard time suspending my disbelief enough to consider him the same character. Suffice to say, that was one special edition change I actually really enjoyed.

Of course, I am not suggesting that people who like Shaw are in the wrong. It’s a subjective preference that really comes down to what you grew up seeing. But it would be nice to have both ghost options released if jonh does come back and make a Shaw version before v2 is released. Shaw could be in the main file, and perhaps just that small portion of the film with both Hayden and crackles could be released separately so it could be replaced easier. It would really help people like me.
