I can live and (maybe more than probably) like updated scenery, ships etc and most cosmetic changes(not including erasing actors performances unless ABSOLUTELY necessary to the story which isnt/wasnt the case with Shaw) and that have NO effect on the pacing of the movie and changes the STORY of the movie, as long as these cosmetic changes are done properly and sensibily,

I even put up with all the 97 stuff which I listed, to watch the SE along side the originals, but Hayden appearing(the performance and (maybe) him) was finally the straw that broke the camels back, so along with other things I abandoned the SEs(I have ever watched the 2004 films twice with my friends and will only do so again with them if they dont want to watch the orignals.... or only to listen to the audio commentries)
