I didn't read this article, but from what I read before, the changes this time actually make sense and don't screw with the actual story at all. Changing Yoda's appearance from Episode 1 and deleting the arm in the Snow Monster shot are good fixes.

Darth Vader now screams "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" when he throws Palaptine to his death.

That sucks.

You're kidding? You're kidding right? Thank God I don't have a Blue-Ray yet.

Okay, I had to go read the article, and its actually pretty funny. the comments are hilarious. The "Nooooooooooooooo" not so much!

George Lucas needs to be frozen in Carbonite so he can't mess with these movies anymore.

And for the record I'm team: "Han shoots Greedo first!"

After finding out what Lucas has done to the ending of the series, all I can say is....

When I saw Revenge of the Sith in theatres, the audience audibly laughed when Vader yelled "NOOOOO!"... it's been ridiculed to death on the internet since then and for some reason George has decided to add the same exact thing to an already established classic? Makes no sense at all. You get the feeling he is completely out of touch with his fans.

So I'm guessing you weren't a fan of IndyIV?

[NewMarketSean]

He actually says "Nooooo" twice now. And it's bad. Really bad.

I've only seen it once and it didn't leave much of an impression on me. I remember thinking the aliens were pretty silly, though. I didn't think it was as bad as the Star Wars prequels.

While I do agree that he should release a "as seen in theaters" version I think this is much ado about nothing. Stripping away the sizable cultural impact of the films (which I am old enough to remember) you are left with three pretty mediocre films with sub par acting and dialog.

I disagree. There's a lot of entertainment value in those three movies. Plus, he did do a really nice job with the plot and creating that universe (galaxy?). It just would have helped if he'd had someone do a rewrite.

I don't deny they are entertaining. A lot of summer flicks are entertaining with sub par acting and dialog, for instance I find Independence Day very entertaining. I just think getting up in arms about him defiling the purity of the original films is a bit on the absurd side. As for the plot, it had some pretty big holes and the first film borrowed rather heavily from prior work.
