Consciously, I was in denial until the love scenes in AOTC. That was the first time I outright thought "ok, this sucks". However, I think that unconsciously, it was the moment that LFL announced that the original (non-SE) films wouldn't be released anymore. Because looking back, that was when I bought up the available VHS and LD versions of the OUT trilogy (that I could find at the time). I didn't even have a laserdisc player, but somehow I must have thought I needed to get the discs. Strange how the mind works.
