Gah, I hated that when I saw it, Luke should've seen the original Vader! Even worse was George Lucas's sickly-sweet explanation that Luke would now see his father as he was before he turned to the Dark Side on account of his redemption.

Well whatever people's opinion on the last scene there I do think other changes throughout was just silly for example the scene in A New Hope in the cantina when Greedo fires first at Han Solo

or The Emperors altered holographic conversation with Vader in Empire..it was just silly...and no need for it

When Han shot Greedo under the table, it made him look hard, but after the alteration, it was stupid. How did Greedo miss at point blank range?

Surley, when Luke saw Hayden Christensen instead of Sebastian Shaw (I think that's his name) at the end of Jedi he would have thought to himself, "There's Yoda, there's Ben.... Eh up, who the hell's that on the end? And where's me Dad?" on the account of him not seeing Anakin looking like that. Oh no, he would have sensed it was him with the Force. Lucas has a get out clause for everything that dosen't make sense in Star Wars: The Force did it.

And it was all to be politically correct today too..he couldn't have Han sneakily shoot at the guy first ...no he had to make it look like a retaliation move

As for the Emperor's holographic bit...I just preferred the original conversation and thought they slightly dumbed down Vader in it to make it more suit his new Prequels...In the new version it has the Emperor having to tell Vader that Luke is his son when I really feel there was no real need to do so

The ending didn't bother me that much I have to say Jip...however I know what you mean about Luke recognising this younger guy as hs Dad all of a sudden

..I did miss the Ewok yob yob song too

I think if I was asked to remove only one thing Lucas had changed... I definitely think it would be Boba Fetts voice

Cool Boba Fett's voice thats used in the original trilogy

New crappy voice recorded Boba

i think empire and jedi should have been left alone , a new hope was the only one that you honestly could say may be needed some updating

That's a funny vid! And yes, Empire and Jedi didn'y need tampering really. The original effects still stand up pretty well today.

Yep I agree too bud both films really shouldn't have been tampered with though I did like the background changes making cloud city bigger looking...I think all the changes should have been just that though....minor background ones

Its good isn't it Jip...I had to laugh when I seen it
