General Star Wars Discussion

Kathleen Kennedy is the best. This is all I ever wanted. There's also supposedly original restorations for Empire and Jedi coming to coincide with their 50ths. This should also come out as a physical release which is preferred as the era of streaming consolidation makes physical media even more important.

That is certainly an interesting take.

Happy for the release, but completely disagree on Kennedy as a good steward for SW.

I must be the only Star Wars fan who just doesn't care. I find the latest versions to be the best and just don't care to go back.

Well, you didn't grow up on them like those of us who watched them in the theaters did. I want to see Han shoot first and not have CGI slop Jabba on the screen. Now, we can both be happy thanks to Kathleen Kennedy.

I agree with Brian on this one, the most recent releases are the best. This is a money grab from Lucasfilm and nothing more.

Oh, I'm not that young! I most certainly did grow up on the originals. I still like the current editions best. I appreciated the SE, though there were some minor execution issues, but those have been fixed. I'm plenty happy with what we have, though honestly, I wouldn't mind even more revisions - for all of the movies.
