So please don't say there were flaws in the OOT when it comes to effects because there wasn't one complaint from fans from 1977-1996.

Actually, I wasn't talking about aesthetic changes like those made to Cloud City. I was referring to matte lines and such.

Exactly, I didn't know about any matte lines until I went on the internet post-1997. I am really not going at you personally, I am just trying to give you a frame of reference of what it was like to be a SW fan from 77-83, and nobody knew what the hell a matte line was on the playground, nor did anyone care. The orange fuzz under the Lukes landspeeder on Tatooine was another thing that bothered Lucas as he says in the SE Documentary on the 97 Laserdisk. Again, I probably noticed somtime in my 100 zillion times I watched the movie, but didn't care, or did it have any effect on the movie.

What Lucas and many SE fans don't get is that the story and characters are what made the movies great from 77-83, and the SPX were just gravy, as they were awesome at the time, and I still think hold today when you look at a Star Trek film from that time, or a movie like the Last Starfighter. But I constanty hear that the effects this and the effects that, but the SE don't make the movies any better in my view or they wouldnt have been the top grossing trilogy of all-time.

So as I said, if you like the SE, thats fine with me, but take it from me and the many SW fans I grew up with and know today, THEY DON"T CARE ABOUT MATTE LINES, its the story and the characters that make us revisit the movies.
