Read it again, dude. Lucas was all about Mos Eisley and Jabba from the get-go. The funny thing is, I totally enjoyed that version in the theater at the time. Throughout 1997-8, the original version and the special edition co-existed on tape and laser side by side on the shelves, and I never figured that one day the original (the thing that actually spawned all the stuff on that chart) would be treated worse than Meatballs 4.

I find it surprising that any Star Wars fan, whatever their preference is, doesn't feel the restored original has any value.
