A few weeks ago, while working my late shift, I stumbled across a very kewl site (thanks to slashdot.org) that shows the differences between all the releases of the original Star Wars trilogy. DVDAnswers has now been updated to include all three of the original movies, with their differences. Most of the changes are just remastering, some color cleanup, etc, but there are some major changes, most of which are easy to spot, but some not so easy.
One change I am not thrilled about is changing the actor that portrayed the ghost of Anakin Skywalker at the end of Return of the Jedi.
I bought the new versions on DVD, but have not had the chance to watch them yet. I do look forward to sitting down with my daughter one day and sharing the greatest movies ever produced.
