The fact is I love the OOT more then any other set of movies, and I will even go as far to say that SW is my favorite movie of all-time, so falling in love is something you can't do, it is something that just happens.
I just feel it is a real bummer that the set of movies that I grew up with and still love today are not the versions I love anymore. There will be a saga boxset next year to commerorate 30 years of SW, and there is a big chance that they will only contain SE/PT versions. It is just sad there is a split of fanbase of such a beloved set of movies, and one of those fanbases is truly second class now.

Wherever your feet take you.
Seriously... I love the O-OT but it's not my life. If I want more Star Wars, there's the video games, maybe the novels and comics. There's a lot of pre-SE material in that venue available.
Personally, I'd start searching out other things to love. If a path seems to be drawing to a close, it's time to walk a new path.

I feel the same way. It is lousy that George and Rick tend to view us as ignorant, blind, whiny, or just not tech-savvy for our complaints on their treatment of the GOUT. Sure we can be stubborn and loud, but that doesn't invalidate our opinions.
