I agree--the O-OT is pure crap. I'm disappointed in George Lucas because he caved in to the demands of the extremist fanboys by putting out the inferior originals on DVD
1) Jedi Rocks is cheesey, but so much easier to believe than the older "rod puppet" Sy Snootles could have ever hoped to have been, and more hot alien chicks seals the deal for me.
What the hell are you talking about? "Jedi Rocks" -- well, it simply ROCKS!!! I love how the entire sequence looks like it was taken out of Monsters, Inc.
5) The new Emperor scene in Empire is entirely better than the old one, dialogue, performance, everything about it is better now.
I agree--"The Son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi" is one of the worst lines of dialogue in cinematic history.
6) I don't see any reason why Tattoine shoulnd't celebrate the return of democracy to the galaxy.

I thought that having Jar Jar scream "weesa free!" was a nice added touch
7) I much prefer the new ending music. It feels more like a whole Galaxy celebrating instead of just the Ewoks.

I love the new age music at the end, it's simply exquisite. I'm also glad that they took out the ghost of that OLD FART, Sebastian Shaw.
Sure it's not perfect. But I say it's still closer to perfect than they ever were before.

I look forward to more Special Editions in the future, so that I can buy them over and over and over again.
