I do agree with nightstalkerpoet about the need for LFL to update the original films, but to put all their effort into it, Lucas has tinkered with his original Star Wars the most which shows that the movie most of us love the most is probably the movie he's most unhappy with, if he's gonna fix it....then fix it....go beyond what Ady has done, fix all publicised errors, if he is gonna place rocks in front of R2's hiding place, then show them in the next scene, not create new continuity errors....if he wants the X-wings updated to CG then go the full hog and change all of them with their own markings not all clones of Red 2.

I naturally would prefer to see the movie as I originally saw it back in 77, where its groundbreaking special effects and sound design fledged the way for blockbusters as we know them now, but that movie now on BD has now been erased, watered down to a weaker version of what we loved, if LFL were to resurrect that movie by updating it, they need to really treat it as a new project....new scan from the original negatives, forget about stupid bRontos, Greedo shooting first etc.

The effects these guys are capable of, but they seem just to tart this film up every few years like giving your house a lick of paint, eventually you need to strip it right back and start again.

If this is what he has planned for the 3D release i'd be amazed.....and while he's at it he can give us a decent BD of the OUT....think of the money he'd make
