I have seen the movies hundreds of times in my life, but since '04, I just get pissed off when I pop them in. Either I can watch a high quality transfer on DVD and get annoyed with all the stupid changes, or see the versions I truly love in a blurry, grainy quality. Either way, I get annoyed!!!!

Me too actually. It is not that I ever made a concious decision not to watch them anymore, but I just can't find the desire too. I wouldn't dream of putting in the SE, because like you they piss me off. And while the GOUT looks okay on my small screen, I just haven't felt like watching them on the small screen. My parents have this massive projection TV in their basement. Everytime I visit I make a point to watch at least one movie on that big screen. One time I poped in the GOUT and started to watch it, but it looked so awful, I ejected it before the Tantive IV scene was even over and decided to watch my old non-anamorphic widescreen Planet of the Apes instead. Somehow it still looked pretty good on the big TV, despite being non-anamorphic. Just shows how awful the GOUT really is.

The next time I watch any SW film, it will be when I can actually enjoy it. If that day never comes, then so be it. Kind of silly, since I have been watching it in VHS quality all my life. But we get used to things. VHS used to be the standard, for the average guy, it was the best quality there was. Now we are spoiled with DVD. Just try going back and watching a VHS tape now, the quality is awful, because we are so used to the clearity of DVD. By watching the GOUT, I am actually watching it in better quality than I have been all my life, but now that I am used to seeing other films in so much higher quality, it really looks unbearably awful.
