I honestly thought my opinion couldn't possibly get any lower what with that  :censored: Jar Jar and Hans Solo vs Greedo amongst a myriad of other ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow--- nonsense, but this too? Congratulations you have successfully moved a bar that much lower.

I now can't decide which one is that much more worthless, Jack Thompson or George Lucas.

Huh?  :dunno wait...   can someone please translate this for a simpleton like me?

ta.

(I think what your'e saying is you think less of me because I prefer the original Star Wars to newer updated or SE versions???) Ok then.  :dunno :lol  What are you on? (and I bet you didn't even leave any for me either).

I have that boxed set you mention level42, and i would have to say it's an easy way to get the original feel, even if the experts say there are differences. I almost cheered when i saw the title scrolling and it DIDNT say 'episode IV'  :)

I think he is directing at Lucas, not you...

It seems like he is saying that GL has changed several parts of the films (which he has, annoyingly) but is surprised he has also changed the Ep 6 final scene too (because he did not know it had been changed, and neither did I!). Now he is even more disappointed with GL saying he has lowered the bar even further. Is that correct?

AFAIK, the "theatrical" dvd version IS transferred from the laserdisc version. The big brouhaha about 'em is the fact they are not anamorphic transfers, but content wise, they're supposed to be identical to the infamous laserdisc/theatrical versions.  If that's not the case, I'd be curious what the differences are that would cause one to be concerned.

Now, as a home theatre fan, not having the original trilogy in an anamorphic transfer sucks, pure and simply. However, neither is the laserdisc version (which I used to own btw...).

Ahhh, well if that’s the case I couldn’t agree more, I was furious and disappointed when I watched my DVD Ep 6 through.  The picture quality etc is pristine and tops my Laser Disc copy by a large degree BUT that scene nearly had me throwing stuff at my screen.  It’s just a damn shame.
