How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Star Wars Special Editions

Starlite Lemming

Fixed ... but not fixed

There's surprisingly few things I didn't like in the Special Editions. I love the extra graphics -- that scene of the Jawa Sandcrawler against a spectacular sunset -- and the extra scenes do add to the universe (even meeting Jabba in Star Wars).

I certainly can't tolerate a couple: Han shot first because he was *that good* -- a central part of his character; Haydn Christensen looks dumb enough in the movies he was paid for, why on Earth would we want to see him again?!

But what really baffles me is the bits they *didn't* fix:

Why is Luke's lightsaber white on the Falcon in Star Wars? Everyone knows it should be blue.

And why does most of the battle with the Emperor in Jedi look like it's been pulled off a VHS tape?
