I'm just beaten down by it all. The fan restorations, for some reason, don't bring me any solace. I guess I'm really disappointed in Lucas - a man I admired so much in the past. His contempt for the OOT seems like borderline insanity.

I haven't liked anything Lucas has done for almost 20 years, so I guess I've had plenty of time to put my sunglasses on and deal with it. I'll just echo Boost and Frink. The fantastic new restorations, fanedits and documentaries, and the recently released deleted scenes make this one of the most exciting times to be a fan.
