I do however think making changes to another directors film like return of the Jedi when the man who made it is dead is another thing.

Richard Marquand is dead and every thing since the 1997 version of Jedi is an abomination to me as a fan.

Kershner is dead now as well but when alive he was okay with the changes made to empire so as much as i hate them there not as bad to me as changing the stuff on JEDI.

As for star wars again Lucas directed it i like the 77 version the best, but it was his movie and if the oot was released on blu ray all the years of fan hatred would probably be made moot or subside.
