    The plastic feel of RotJ. It doesn't fit with the grit of the first two films.

    I'm sorry for asking, but what do you mean with 'plastic' feel to it?
    I'm not trying to argue with you, I just don't quite understand what you mean with it

    My biggest gripe is that in Sail Barge, Luke is hitting left and right, yet no one loses arms legs or anything, the LS is just a stick.

    Everyone knows each other/ is related to one another in the GFFA.

    On another note, last I checked the Fetts are punks, and Boba is still being digested in the Sarlacc.

    My biggest gripe is probably one you have heard before...

    Greedo does not shoot first!

    Of course thats only a problem in the SE but its the first thing that came to mind.

    I never liked the graphics, although I do understand that all the OT movies were made in the 70s and 80s.

    I never understood the scene in ANH when the characters try to get out of Mos Eisley. Han is the only one shooting at the stormtroopers, but a million laser blasts hit all the troopers.

    Han was laying down a lot of firepower, that's all I can say.

    My one gripe about the original trilogy is that it was only 3 episodes.

    Something that irritates me in ANH:SE is the addition of a WW-II dive-bomber sound to the TIE Fighters attacking the Falcon just after they escape from the Death Star. I'm pretty sure that wasn't in the original. What was the point of that?

    lol@Kinobe's sig ... Futurama, right?

    One thing which REALLY annoys me in ANH is the side burns on the Imperial officers.

    I don't like the scene in the cantina when Obi-Wan cuts the arm off of the but-face guy, and the mad doctor. I don't remember their names.

    isn't that more PT?
    It wasn't that way in the OT.

    My only single solitary gripe, is in ANH when, "They're comin' through!", the door opens by about a foot, now I know S.Troopers are daft but come on. Just the door opening a tad, enough to show some shadows or of the like.

    The rest of the trilogy is too incredible to nit pick wee things IMO.

    Jedi rocks just kills me

    I cant take Jabba seriously now that he lets some smuggler step on his tail.

    Aunt Beru "Luuuke, Luuuuuke"

    Uncle Owen "Luke. Luuke. Luuuke!!"

    Lobot belongs in Star Trek

    Vaders hands moving while he isnt saying anything to Tarkin

    I want YUB YUB back!

    A serious lack of full frontal nudity just steams me. What was GL thinking?

    Leia's face when Tarkin said "Continue with the operation. You may fire when ready" and her "What?". I don't know why but I don't like it.

    The SE Han editing (Greedo shooting first, "Trust me" being eliminated) really upset me. Those were two of his coolest scenes, now gone.

    As for the original original trilogy...the Star Destroyers always disapponted me. Besides looking scary as hell, they never do anything. The most action we've really seen from one is chasing the Falcon, and then the Executor crashing into the Death Star.

    When Leia says "they're coming through", the door isn't even open at all.

    Watch the scene closely, it barely opens up a little bit later.

    Wait, what "trust me" was eliminated in ANH?

    Post 1 gripe about one of the original trilogy films

    The lightsaber blades suck! Except for in ESB, though. In ANH, Luke's went from aqua to white, while Vaders was pink and then white, and in ROTJ, Luke's was a fat green blade in the duel. I sure hope they fix these problems.

    Also, that line "They're coming through." does bite. Bad acting. Pure bad acting.

    I also wish that the Emperor mentioned Yoda to Luke in ROTJ.
