I had never seen this before. Instead of just celebrating in the jungle, there's scenes - done in CGI - from different places in the Empire. There's Theed City, and what looks a lot like Corascant. I had no idea about this, although I can't say I'm that surprised at those scenes being done almost entirely with computer graphics, sadly. Was this change really neccessary?

I would've thought the Star Wars nuts on this board would've been all over this topic like a rash.

These changes are older than most of the posters here lol

Lucas did that in the 90s with the rerelease of the OT.

For many that's the only OT they know

theatrical or bust

or look into the fan edit "despecialized" editions that mix and match from the highest quality sources possible while removing obnoxious and unnecessary CGI

The Lucas changes have always been hated.
Han shooting second
Han stepping on Jabba's tail
Nooooooooooo in RoTJ
Extra dew backs and other background noise
The singing thing in Jabba's palace
The desert frog that eats a desert fly and burps.

Trash tier changes.

Han shot first.

TLJ was trash.

Han stepping on Jabba's tail

this one is actually funny due to how bad the effect is

look at Han when he steps on Jabba, he's incredibly stiff and just slightly moves up and down

the editing of the original (albeit removed) scene is so, so bad

Almost seems like there were a bunch of employees at Lucasfilm that needed to justify their employment and said "George! Listen, what if... What if R2 hid behind some rocks? I mean, he's a smart little Droid, he would know to hide, right?, I could easily add some digital rocks there. "

George.: "hmm,.... BRILLIANT!"

Is this topic for real? I complain about those changes all the time, but most of the people in this forum grew up with those changes and consider them the norm. Some have never even seen the original ending, and were talking about people in their 20s and 30s. Not kids. Yub Nub is clearly better than the generic trash music they play at the end now. But sadly that trash is now considered the norm.

I saw the original versions on VHS as a kid and was stoked about the "special editions"

oh, to be young and stupid again...

That was most obnoxious of the original edits, yes

But then they later added even worse shit like the aforementioned "Weesa free!" and Vader's "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

Like are you fucking kidding me? Can't you leave well enough alone?

The best contribution the edits made were to ANH's Death Star dogfight - a lot of really cool cuts got added that weren't possible without CGI, like Wedge shooting the TIE Fighter a split-second before he barreled through the resulting explosion.

This. And I don't remember anyone complaining about Yub Nub until like '99 at the earliest. I don't even remember people complaining about Ewoks until the internet came along. I was a kid in '83 and I can promise you that every kid wanted each of those damn little things and the Ewok Village was the Holy Grail.

Yes children liked ewoks but I can tell you my adult parents complained about ewoks back then when I first saw the series in 1991

Children weren't complaining about ewoks or jarjar
