The Greedo change was such a quick flash that I didn't even notice it the first time through. I just knew that something seemed less compelling about that sequence. Jabba was perhaps the most fun sequence to have added since it gave me a view of Star Wars I had never known about. Sure, Jabba looked like crap, and he seemed out of character, but I had fun with the sequence. Neither of those changes were huge and I could have overlooked them both had George not then gone on to try erasing the original version of the film. It seems so wrong to not treat the theatrical versions of the films as the actual, official versions. Once the SEs became more than simply a fun alternative version, they became something I had to be critical of as a Star Wars fan; needless to say, I found them to be very, very lacking.

(Oh, another SE problem I had from the start was all of the digital insertions of Boba Fett. What was up with that? It seemed insulting to have him showing up everywhere for no reason other than to appeal to his fans. Yet, as a Boba Fett fan, I realized that it made no sense for him to be in ANH since he hadn't even delivered Han to Jabba yet. Are we supposed to assume that Jabba had always had Boba as a permanent employee from the beginning? Didn’t Boba, as a bounty hunter, ever go around bounty hunting? Was he always just a henchman? That would make Boba Fett lame in my book.)
