I feel sorry for him thinking that he'll ever convince people to love the PT as much as the OT by adding all these changes and linking the two trilogies together by diminishing the OT's original charm.

I'm not sure how you got the assumption that he wants to convince people to love the PT as much as the OT. Not just because there is nothing that points to that, but because there is nothing wrong with people liking it as much as the OT.

Anyway, that "no nooo" from Vader is the second bad news I'm getting from this version (the first being the lightsabers). One inch closer to not buying the set.

Well, a great majority of SW fans disliked the PT. Most of the PT enthusiasts were children when those movies came out. The PT is Lucas' trilogy, while the OT creatively belongs to a number of people. Lucas wants people to like the PT as much as the OT so that the entire saga can thrive. That's why you only get the special features discs with the complete set and not the individual trilogies. A considerable number of consumers would only buy the OT set if it had all the relevant deleted scenes and bonus features.

Not sure what you're trying to argue here, as you have no argument. Lucas wants SW to be one saga rather than two disparate trilogies. If you can't understand that, then you are lost! ;)
