Those articles were quite good. Most people only really notice the main changes, including me so I found myself enlightened. While I find some of the changes unnecessary, some really don't warrant the complaints they get, mainly because alot of them don't really fundamentally alter the story all that much anyways. Examples being different or additional readings in the films, although one reading we can all agree lacked the characteristic punch was Temura Morrison's reading for Boba Fett....I know you tried Temura but god damn....you just did a terrible job.

The funniest thing for me though was the fact that I learned something about the 1997 Special Editions, which I have only seen once. The awful scream as Luke falls after his duel with Vader in The Empire Strikes Back. That high pitched sissy wail or whatever you want to call it was so awful, Lucas removed it from subsequent releases. I actually laughed when I listened to the clip.

Anyways this is definately worth reading for any Star Wars purist.
