I think that's also an example of a movie that has changed over time.
Probably the worst example being Cinema Paradiso. The original cut had nostalgia with a mixture of regret and acceptance of what is past. Then, the new cut concludes with the disappointment of trying to confront past missed opportunities. Whether it's meant to be hyperrealistic, I also liked the original movie, which was a different movie, but can't be found anymore.
I think the same goes for the earlier releases of Star Wars. I know that the special effects of the era weren't "better", but the modern CGI makes them different movies, and I'd like to have the original version available, too.
- jbert 13y agoYou can buy a DVD set which has the original versions (no CGI, Han shoots first etc) on the bonus disks. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Original_unaltered_trilogy_%28DVD%29 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Original_unaltered_trilogy_%2... IIUC, only the 2008 release set has them. But you can still buy those. Just check the reviews etc carefully to be sure it's the correct release.
- eric_the_read 13y agoI have that set; since the original cut is from the laserdisc transfer, you can actually see the matte backgrounds when the TIE fighters attack the Falcon as they escape the Death Star. I'm hoping Disney will restore the original cut and fix those little issues.

- gcb0 13y ago.. Soit's easier to find what you want in the sea of fake/wrong uploads that is the piratebay than to get the cut you want paying for it? Seems to agree with everything in this thread, unfortunately.
