I think I would now, as I am becoming more and more a SW'77 fan in alot of ways cause that is the only movie I can watch and not think about the Saga and all the other BS that has pervaded a GFFA. I haven't watched ROTJ in years cause the OOT DVD is so crappy, and the SE has Hayden at the end of the movie, and everytime I see him next to Alec Guiness I want to throw my remote control through the TV!
No, ESB = no OT, no PT, no SE, no EU, no TV series, instead a high quality transfer of the 1977 Version of SW without the Episode IV in the main crawl and no silly updates? I am starting to lean that way.

It would have been nice to be able to say "Star Wars is a great movie" and have (a.) not every one know what movie you are talking about and (b.) not have to worry about those who do know what you are talking about think of SW as a disjoined series of six films of inconsistent qualities and styles, but rather a single cult sci-fi film from the late seventies.

Really? You'd give up ESB to make the PT go away? That's insane... don't watch the PT and presto! It goes away...
I'm blown away by that comment.
