Well i really can't say this is shocking. Its something we suspected, and judging by the CGI Yoda footage in TPM, I'd say that the OT is not alone in the updating. Really, I don't much care anymore. Let Lucas do what he wants with the films as long as the originals are available. Thats all the opposition boils down to. In fact, I would be curious to see just how far Lucas would push the revisionism in the films, adding whole scenes and such, simply because its such an experimental and unprecedented feat--but of course, without a proper release of the OT, such an act would be criminal.

I am wondering how extensive these new changes are: are they just cleaning up some of the now-dated 1997 CGI the way they did for the 2004 SE (yeah, big success the SE is--you got rid of "dated" 1970's FX only to have dated 1990's FX, and now probably soon-to-be-dated 2007 FX)? Or will they be bigger, like the 2004 McDiarmid and Christenson footage? Without handy access to actors, and with a much smaller profit-margin for this boxset, and with a whole bunch of changes already done to the films i am guessing they will be more minor tweaks--lets hope correcting the lightsabers back to the "unfinfished" OOT colours is first on the list, instead of Darth Gayder with his pink saber.
