My ranking:
★★★★★

  1. The Empire Strikes Back DESPECIALIZED
  2. Star Wars DESPECIALIZED
  3. Return of the Jedi DESPECIALIZED

So you like despecialized movies more than the actual originals? Huh.

I certainly like watching them over any official version. The picture and sound quality is miles ahead of the official product and the SE changes have been erased to the point that I can’t tell they were ever there.

I’m not talking about versions or what is out there but what the movies actually are. It’s like saying my favorite movies are The Terminator Special Edition DVD and Terminator 2 Skynet Edition. When ranking films it’s odd to see them specifically categorized as despecialized versions and not actually the movies that were actually made.

The special editions changes throw off the tone for me. I consider them to be completely different movies.

The Kenobi <s>Movie</s> Show (Spoilers)
Time

Just give Ewan McGregor a gray beard and he should look similar to how he was drawn in Rebels.

I’d be prepared for a CGI Alec Guinness in the last scene though. I would love that.

CGI Alec Guinness is out walking and just as he tops the next hill, there he sees Luke, R2, and 3PO. He prepares to make the Krayt Dragon call…and cut. The End.
