Like a lot of people, I don't necessarily object to all of the changes made in the SEs. What I do object to is Lucas claiming he has the right to keep people from viewing the movie in its original form. No that crap "bonus feature" release doesn't count.

If a scene doesn't have any lightsabers in it, it probably isn't worth watching, anyway. That's what makes the new movies so great-so many lightsabers!

This was done make them more color saturated and contrasty and in general more like the photography of the new movies. In doing so, he completely fucked the original photography.…

Hell, I've been watching from the start and I barely know…

"…ucking Pavement"
Bring it on.

Shit! Now I wish I could say I've never seen Top Gun!

"You've Lost That Lovin Feelin"
That scene has always defined , for me, what's wrong with guys my older brother's age, who sincerely, and without irony, refer to their friends as their "wingman."

And some Danzig CDs.

All rise for Bud Cort.

See—I, personally—I wouldn't even wanna go out like that.
