Recomposition of the original effects doesn't bother me. Much like turning a mono or stereo track into a 5.1 surround mix doesn't so long as its the original audio cues and nothing else added.

That said its not the original versions of the movies visually and I agree that the matte lines should be left in to have a truly unaltered trilogy.

Yes i agree as well, recomposition (as long as it's done well) is A OK in my opinion... if it's done in the Special Edition or Director's Cut, and only if the originals are offered in their original forms in HD. I've always said that the SE's aren't what bothers me, it's the fact that we don't have the originals. Honestly, I wouldn't be any more upset if Lucas just stopped releasing Star Wars all together, I don't even consider the SE's as Star Wars films. It's just the exact equivalent of not having the films at all.
