Did the altered versions really stray that far from the originals?

Mainly details, but details can be very important.

They didn't really stray at all in story, but there numerous changes in effects, going as far as replacing the origianl Anakin ghost at the end of Jedi with ther actor from the latest trilogy (forget his name). I grew up with the original special effects, so seeing CG next to the original puppets and animatronics really takes me out of the movie. A lot of people agree as this edition was basically forced by public demand.

Yeah, its awesome to see that they are bringing back hte unedited originals. Lucas DOES listen to people sometimes

But ill probably get this. Would be nice to see the original orignals unedited but mastered enough for DVD.

I think he just wants to make more money and had this all planned before he released the edited dvds.

Maybe not planned, but definitely interested in expanding his fortune. What are the people who bought the DVD trilogy from 2004 supposed to do now? What a f***ing rip-off!

It wasn't really a force I could stop.

So instead I helped it along for money.
