Very well put, man. I feel the same way.
The movie Star Wars, the adventure, the emotion, the sense of awe, the story, the event - they all happened first - because 1977 happened first - NOTHING that Lucas has done the last two decades, or anything he ever does from now on - technology, editing, lying, etc - can interfere with that. Where Star Wars is concerned, I've not seen anything (versions, edits) that didn't take place in 1977.
Events that happen now cannot alter events that happened in 1977.
Lucas doesn't get to decide what Star Wars is for me.

My memories surrounding the movies and the dozens of times I've seen them in theaters.........and my genuine love of the movie Star Wars as one of the best films ever made .... all these sustain my love for Star Wars and will keep it fun for me till the end of my days.

You guys are very lucky you can be like that! But for me, everytime I watch the OUT now and no matter how hard I try, I get flashes in my mind of the silly changes, the alterations in the story, Jar Jar, Anakin building C3PO, Chewbacca and Yoda being friends....
