(We hope to expect the same treatment for Empire Strikes Back this year!) Having watched it all I can say is WOW, my love for the movie is back and stronger than ever. Let me show you just a hand full of the HUNDREDS of changes made. It's been out for some time now, and requires you to go hunting around the torrents or Usenet to find a copy (and please if you do download it make sure you have an original copy of the DVD or Blu-ray, to try and at least bring some shred of legitimacy to the act of downloading it!), and while I may be waaay behind the times in knowing about it, there must be others out there in the same boat as me who need this movie (or version of) in their lives.
I thought i was going in search of one of those ropey low res re-cuts, where most of Luke Skywalker's scenes had been removed from the movie. 'I refuse to watch the Special Edition now because his version is sooooo good' something clicked in me and I had to have a look.
Old news to many of you I'm sure, but I had never heard of this and when he said. I'm delighted to say was wrong!ĭuring the comments in 'The Weekender XLBS' (who I owe eternal thanks to!) made a strange reference to 'fan edit of A New Hope: Revisited' by someone called 'Adywan'. My enjoyment of 'A New Hope' was kinda gone, and I couldn't explain why, sure it had all the extra wizzy bits (that in general I'm not opposed to!) but on the whole the movie no longer felt the same.
Even though Lucasfilm went to great lengths to add stuff to the OT, however they managed it, I felt there was something missing. I bought the Blu Ray releases of the OT (Original Trilogy) a few weeks back and I have been gradually introducing them to my little girl, and boy was I looking forward to all their HD Glory.īut something is just not the same, I hate to say it, but it started with the prequels, and as I discovered over the weekend, cumulated in the special editions. I'll be honest, I was really starting to struggle with Star Wars.
