Agreeing to disagree truly is the way to go. I have nothing against the PT and I've said it many times. I wasn't a huge fan of TPM, but I liked AOTC. That's just me. I've also explained that the reason why I can tolerate the PT better than most is that I try to think of them as movies that are only related to the OT in that they share the name "Star Wars". Otherwise, in my mind, they are a completely separate series of movies. Makes it easier to swallow. I gave up on George completely fulfilling my vision for Star Wars years ago. I don't hold these movies against him, but how can I possibly expect him to incorporate my vision along with millions of other fans' visions in with his? Impossible. They're his movies and he can do with them as he pleases. I will still watch them.

And I've said this, the OT are his movies as well. He can do with them as he pleases. However, since he has released them in theaters in so many different versions, each and every one of those versions should be released for the fans on DVD. Hence why I keep fighting the good fight on this site.
