    I'll probably wait and see it on pay-per-view or DVD. Although the prequels were crap, I hear this one's pretty good.

    I'm still pissed by the fact that GL won't release the original three movies on DVD without the special edition changes, regardless of the fan's wishes. He has no respect for the people who made him. I also think it's lame that Leia remembered her 'real mother' in Return of the Jedi, yet Padme didn't even see her before she died in Episode III. Then in the DVD release of Return of the Jedi, Sebastian Shaw (old Vader's ghost) was replaced with Hayden Christensen (young Vader's ghost) at the end. Alec Guinness (old Kenobi ghost), however, was not replaced with Ewan McGregor. George claims this is because Vader was last "good" when he was young, so his ghost should be young. Apparently the moron completely forgot the last thing that old Vader said to Luke after he killed the Emperor, "You were right about me. Tell your sister, you were right." (concerning the fact that there was still good in him and he could turn from the dark side). Then he dies. There was no reason for the change aside from a shameless promotion of the new movies.

    Lucas' new-found stupidity just pisses me off.

    I believe in Return of the Jedi when Luke asked Leia if she remembered her mother, Leia would have been talking about her adoptive mother that you see at the end of this movie. As a baby, she (obviously) would not be aware that she was adopted.

    Then in the DVD release of Return of the Jedi, Sebastian Shaw (old Vader's ghost) was replaced with Hayden Christensen (young Vader's ghost) at the end. Alec Guinness (old Kenobi ghost), however, was not replaced with Ewan McGregor.

    I think one reason they didn't replace Alec Guinness' ghost is because Ewan McGregor looks enough like him to leave it as it was. However, there was absolutely no resemblence at all between Sebastian Shaw and Hayden Christensen so George baby made the change.........I actually didn't mind it but I know lots of fans that it annoyed.
