I do have an official jedi bathrobe (with logo).

I'm looking forward to the new blu ray box set and happy to have birthday and Christmas shortly following the release :)

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]

He is your father.

No, wait...

Damn it my old Star Wars addiction ressurected over the trip and I actually HAD pretty much this exact conversation with my dad.

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

Yeah. But wait, what's this about Lucas having changed them again? How this time? Argh, why is it so hard to just get the original goddamned movies?!?

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.

Damn it Lucas. How can you make such awesome stuff and do it so wrong at the same time?
