George Lucas on Sept 21, 2004 defending the changes to the original Star Wars movie:

"When Star Wars came out, and every interview I did, the movie didn't turn out the way I really wanted it to, it is only about 25% of what the movie should be, and I was very depressed about it because it never got finished." People said, "Your out of your mind its the greatest movie ever made! Everybody loves, why would you wanna do anything more?" Lucas then says, " But there are things that need to be there that are not in there."

Don't be fooled guys, Lucas knows people hate the changes, he knows we want the O-OT.

I guess we all fell in love with a movie that was 25% done, man those were the days!
