I still say the restoration of an unaltered OT would be a much bigger deal than we’re giving

To who though? The Special Editions aren’t one of the best selling home releases ever because people just want to own fan edits with a clean conscious…

Correct. Some of us initially bought it because it was the only option and it was better than nothing. Probably not an unsubstantial number of people.

And the other 99% bought it because they want to watch the Star Wars and they have it now.
Gout? My grandpa had that one time

Easy sell for a marketer.

‘As you’ve not seen for 25 years…’ or something.

It’s an interesting idea but again it depends if people remember or care about what happened in 1997.

What Didn't You Like About ROTS?
Time

The scene where Obi-wan just takes the lightsaber and leaves Anakin on the shore is particularly stupid. It’s one of many stupid scenes of course, but it stands out as being a case of the ‘whatever just get to the Vader suit’ mentality. The whole thing is written this way.

Random story - I walked out of the theatre with my brother after seeing Tom Cruise’s War of the Worlds. His reaction was ‘well it was still better than ROTS’.
