The only things that come to mind in the special editions that I didn't like were... Greedo shooting first (didn't look good, didn't make sense) Han walking on Jabba's tail (really shoulda thought up a different solution) and I agree on the removal of Lapti Nek (didn't mind the new song, but it was unecessary, just shoulda tarted up the old song a bit). Things I'd love to see changed in the future... 1. totally CGI the attack on the Death Star battle (the current remaining original effects shots stand out like a sore thumb...and they look dated, and dare I say...a bit cheap) Same goes for Return Of The Jedi. 2. In fact CGI ALL space based stuff, but keep the same basic 'shots' and composition. 3. Re-do Jabba in A New Hope so he looks like the ones in the other films (and NO walking on his tail!...totally undermines his 'crime-boss' persona) 4. Greedo shoots first (obvious one) 5. CGI Walkers/Snowspeeder battle on Hoth. Again recreate most of the shots fairly faithfully, but add a few more 'wow' shots and vertigo inducing flybys. 6. CGI Scout Walkers and Speeder Bikes on Endor. The problem with a lot of the old blue screen work is that the scale against the backgrounds often doesn't feel consistent and there's a lack of shadows and interaction the the backgrounds...easily solved with CGI. 7. Replace a lot of the old matt paintings with more three dimensional CGI work. 8. Get rid of some of the 'jumps' in A New Hope when Lightsabers are turned on or off, or blast doors close quickly. Can be done very effectively now with some subtle CGI morphing. I think I'll leave it there, before I get too geeky(er) You'll be satisfied then as i heard many chnages concern the areas you mentioned. But "que sera sera"... Jedimaster the photoshop suspicion was on my mind before your post!!! Read further up!!! Pretty slow for a jedi!!!! Actually, I read your post, and it was what prompted me to find a pic of the original to compare it to. Now that I have seen the comparison, there is no doubt in my mind its a fake.

Yep. He used to be kinda cool, then he started thinking he was a celebrity and its really gone to his head. We have a mutual friend (the same one who knows Tarantino), so I've hung out with him a few times. At first I liked him, but nowadays I think he's an idiot!
