What? I haven't changed my mind. If anything I just said they'll revert back to '04 content-wise because I don't think they'll add the extra rocks in front of R2 because those are completely minute and non-sensical.

Well if they aren't going to redo/reshoot the PT crap which is now stuck in 2K... then the version will pretty much end up being the 1997. Non-PT differences between 1997 and 2004/2011 are rather minor.

Unless they use the 2K and up-scale it to 4K which would be extremely embarrassing and unprofessional.

And no, saying the 97 and 11 SE's are identical is not the same as comparing the SE to the original; they're the same, just with updated Jabba and new prequel references (and without the scream in Empire).

That's like saying 15 and 16 are identical numbers, while 5 and 6 aren't...

 I should clarify this, I do in fact think it'd be nice for the '97 version to be preserved since it was probably one of the biggest theatrical re-releases of older movies ever. I just think it's not the best idea to get our hopes up because I just don't see it happening. Then again, you're actually a fan of the original SE so it's probably a lot more important of an issue to you than it is to me, and you're right, while I'm definitely no fan of the '97 SE, it certainly is a lot less offensive than the post '97 changes.
