Maybe he only watched the 1997 Special Edition on 35mm and never saw the incredibly awful 2004 DVD one can hope. Its worse it has that new Emperor scene and Boba Fett redubbed by Jango Fett. But the 97 still has worse replacement shots than the original lead up to cloud city, and alert my star destroyer to prepare for my arrival and Jerjerrod. Even if it had the Original Emperor and Jason Wingreen. If only they restored the picture did a cleaned up multi track digital mix, removed matte lines. Fix the Speeder transparency.

I even hate the zoomed in Falcon Cockpit shots. For every beautiful original effect cleaned up there is a nonsense cgi test shot that sticks out like a sore thumb.

They were using these as a place to learn new tools and create a toolbox to make the prequels. Its hideous to think they defaced the original. and even cut up the negative. And didn’t create a restored original first and the special edition second as an alternative cut.
