    Regardless of who agrees or disagrees with it, doesn't this very selection (and the existence of it) illustrate the entire issue and the problems with it?

    (Didn't mention Biggs at Yavin, BTW)

    I still haven't bought a Blu-Ray player or decided if I'll ever buy the SW films on Blu-Ray... maybe, maybe not. As others have said, I still have my 2004 OT DVD set and I'm pretty happy with it.

    Regarding the changes versus the huge sales numbers, I would say that the "Nooooo" addition (and any of the other strange additions or changes) have not been much of a factor for sales because the general buying public sees Star Wars available on Blu-Ray and says "want". Simple as that. Most of them probably don't know about these changes before buying the Blu-Rays, and I would even bet that many of them don't even notice the changes once they do watch the movies.

    I haven't gotten the OT on BluRay either as of yet. I'm a little scared that I'm going to like these movies less because of the new additions. Also, can someone tell me if the picture is truly high definition and not just a polished DVD port? I saw The Ten Commandments on BluRay a few days ago and it took my breath away. Unbelievable restoration! If Star Wars doesn't look that good, I'll be disappointed.

    I honestly assumed this was a joke until the blu ray actually came out. It's really ,really bad. It's saddening too because what i've seen of the blu ray footage is beautiful, and i don't mind a few touch-ups, like on the lightsaber blades. But why add lines like that, when you know it's unpopular?

    If they ever come out with a blu ray of any edition but this one, i'll buy it. But not this one.
