I too prefer the 1997 to theatrical. I think 1997 versions were an honest attempt to improve the original versions. Plus I can't stand Yub-Nub.

The 2004 and 2011 on the other hand, were just an opportunity for Lucas to infest the OT with his PT parasites (Hayden, NOOO etc.).

Although I love the 97 version for its place in history and my memory I must remind with you about the 97 versions being 'honest'. Although the 2004 n 2011 have additional changes and color and sound fuck ups, there was still bad Dino's and a certain green alien who is now quicker on the draw than Clint. lets not even get into the Jabba scene.

Interesting your comment about nub nub, although that's what I grew up with on VHS I have grown to prefer the new ending score (although I fully accept it does not match the images).
