Wow. Curse words and everything.
Here's the thing.
The SE are the movies. Period. End of story. You want a Star Wars DVD with all the bells and whistles? They've been out for months. The OOT is the equivalent of a DVD extra. No different than deleted scenes. The OOT is now a earlier draft of Star Wars.
My side of this, and I know its a useless argument, especially in here. Is that these aren't your movies. GL, no matter how much you hate him... made these flicks, he busted his ass to get them made, he had the foresight to make sure he had total ownership of them. All because he believe that a movie is a piece of art, something that the artist can do to whatever he/she wants to. Up to and including adding a new Ewok song.
Maybe if people would take one tiny little second to respect the guy's art. You'd be able to enjoy these movies again. CGI Jabba the Hutt and all. Until thats possible, it'll be thread after thread about widescreen transfers, Greedo shooting first, crappy DVD cover designs and whatever else is the latest "Lucas kicked by puppy" complaint of the day is.
