It is just so frustrating as a fan who grew up with the OOT, to see the SE in High Definition on HBO, the SE in great quality on DVD, and the OOT is stuck in 1993 laserdisk land. For me, it is still the SE that piss me off, not the PT, and I honestly believe if Lucas would have never changed the OT movies, I would probably accepted the PT movies as part of the saga, but just the inferior part the way I accepted ROTJ for many years. But now I see SW on HBO HD and see how great it looks and then I have to watch Greedo shoot first, CG Jabba get his tail stepped on, and I turn it off. If the OOT is not remastered in this rumored 30th Anniversary set this year, there won't be anything on the horizons DVD or HD-DVD for many years with SW on it, I will walk away from SW fandom, because I am just getting too fucking annoyed watching inferior versions of my favorite movie of all-time, while I know there is a great transfer sitting out there in the SE. Sorry, but I love great quality when I watch a movie.
