I’m glad to see that I’m not the only one that likes the 1997 SE versions.
I got to see Star Wars & Empire in 77 & 80 but never got to see Jedi in theaters until 97.
This was such an exciting time for me in my early 20’s & I saw each film multiple times in the theater.
I don’t have to like all the changes, but I remember the feeling I had being able to see the Trilogy on the big screen again.
I sometimes watch the SE trailers on YouTube.
I’ve been able to find copies of Harmy’s ReSpecialized and another version of Empire in the 97 SE format.
Hope to get Jedi in its 97 SE format someday as well.
Yes, the 97 SE versions are important.
I hope others feel the same & a 4K project happens!
