I purchased them so I could have them and enjoy them on DVD. It is a version of the film that merits repeated viewing, and it is the only official version on DVD. Despite how certain changes screwed up the story, they are still largely great films. By not purchasing them, however, one does not reserve any rights to recourse against the manufacturer. Unless a truckload of DVDs falls on your head, the DVDs have not wronged you if you didn't buy them. If you did buy them as I did on opening day, and were expecting a flawless transfer as all the advance press and hype suggested, then you were wronged. True creative changes aside, the set has technical flaws that have been better addressed in other threads on this board. If you purchased this disc, you have the right to claim for damages, which you wouldn't have if you hadn't purchased the disc. And if you are bootlegging or pirating the movie without an official license in your posession, then you not only have no rights to claim damages, you are a target for civil litigation AND criminal prosecution. Best defense: Have a legitimate licensed copy in your posession.
