This is truly disconcerting. I had just forced myself to accept the changes for the DVDs. I was almost settled into a stupor of "this is how its going to be, so get used to it." But all my effort is in vain. Not only do I have to watch rediculous versions of the movies I love, but they have glaring faults that are not even excusable by the "artistic...blah blah" bullcrap.

Lucas....you bastard.

P.S. I dont have 5.1 for my main dvd player, but when I watch the films on my computer this problem seems very obvious, and I am completely uninformed when it comes to this kind of stuff. I mean, its not even a matter of comparing it to the older versions. Its just flat out obviously bad.
