watched all the films and am now working my way through the bonus disc.
Having heard that these were different from the Special Editions of 97 i was expecting to be dissapointed but apart from changing the voice of Boba Fett and putting in Hayden Christianson the changes were ok.
It has been rumoured that next year he will release another DVD with the original footage and no special features. There is also a petition website setup to get this done called
www.originaltrilogy.com
as mentioned somewhere else in this tread the models and stuff looked far better that the CGI stuff. You can tell straight away when something has been done with CGI but the models wasn't always the case. Some of the matt paintings that made up hte backgrounds of Bespin and other places were superb as well.
What I would have liked to see on the bonus disc was one of the original edit where the start story went on for pages and the battles were shown with WWII planes instead.
An original script instead would have been nice as well. Not the shooting one but some of the missing scenes.
Anyone know what is happening with 7-9 which were also meant to be filmed at some point and George has the stories for.
