If only Lucas had paid attention to the drop-off at Jedi. It might have influenced the prequels and the 04 changes in a GOOD way, but no. 1997 Return of the Jedi made quite a bit less than Star Wars. I've talked to some people who had never seen that version until 2004 and were shocked at the lameness of the changes. These are people who probably hadn't seen Jedi in ten years and those 2 new songs just jumped out and slapped them. To me '97 Jedi IS a bomb (as opposed to Da bomb).
