I heard that the Anakin ghost had been swapped for the new guy at the end of Return, and declared that if this was the case I'd take the DVD back to HMV
it was the case, and I did.
I completely appreciate Lucas' right to refiddle his own work.
I completely appreciate my own right to not have my favourite childhood moments repeatedly fucked with.
in saying that, there's probably an awful lot more I like in these releases than not, and this will be a sorely tempting offer. I'm currently slightly weirded out that I don't have the trilogy
[note: I was kept in an incubator for three months after birth due to a very weak heart. The first thing my mother did on my release was take me to see Star Wars. She claims I stayed awake, aware and silent throughout the film. I met Luke Skywalker before I met my own father. Literally]
You could - back in 2006. But those editions weren't terribly high quality (having been taken from the laserdisc masters), the only high quality version out there is the special edition version with all the tweaks.
As I remember I kept trying to get them then and still only running across the New & Improved versions. *sigh* I'd get the tweaked one rather than have nothing but I keep not quite giving up hope that they'll release decent versions of the originals.

And I lust after the Blu Rays. I admit it.

Just not until next year, when they're a lot cheaper./
