Now thats fucking crazy. Come one what about the new Mos Isley, expanded cloud city, new wampa, new sarlacc, matt line deletion, improved Yavin shots, improved lightsabers, new Biggs scene, and the deletion of that horrendous ewok song. Plenty of really awsome changes that make the movie better. For every bad change there are 50 good ones.

It's Eisley, Mos Eisley. The "new" Sarlacc is just a penis sticking out of the pit. It not only looks dumb, but the sounds it makes are pretty lame. The Ewok song was not horrendous. I would rather listen to Elmo sing at the end of Return Of The Jedi than hear that lame Yanni-sounding shit. The whole end is stupid (WEESA FREE!!!) now, it's completely out of place. Cloud City, the Wampa, Yavin and Mos Eisley didn't need to be enhanced or expanded. I'm sorry you apparently disliked the original versions so much that you feel these changes were absolutely needed - I didn't. Now you can keep preaching the word of Lucas and bitching that a penis looks better than just a pit with teeth and tentacles and that sort of shit...or you can just accept that I don't really like the Special Editions. I didn't need it, many of the people on this board sure as hell didn't need it. I guess that's the difference between us. Now that you've seen the SE, you'd never go back to the Originals would you?

Oh, and the new Mos Eisley ruined one of the better scenes in ANH where the Stormtroopers stop the landspeeder. Now, a Ronto blocks our view (Lucas originally never intended to have us see the troops approach I guess), that floating droid thing annoys the hell out of me by making noises during one of the better lines ("We don't need to see his I.D."), and it all ends with another Ronto...it just feels so fake.
