The original ROTJ Jabba is my no.1 favorite practical effect in all of cinemaThat hulking, wobbling puppet still trumps the new versions to me.

This is so freaking true. He went from making a demand through clenched teeth to ordering a latte.Those line alterations were maddening.
“Bring my shuttle” was said with such anger. Vader was pissed. Now he sounds like he’s collecting his shuttle from a valet
Yep, now that I have 4K77 and 4K83 I no longer bother with the Despecialized versions of SW and ROTJ.Despecialized are very cool and modern but something about those 4K/77/83 that really REALLY bring home the feeling of being there during their original releases they really brought me back to 77 and 83.
For those who were not there in 77 and 83 I highly recommend them because they’re as close to the real visual experience from that analog era as you can get.
As a nice and respected government official once said…”Do what must be done. Do not hesitate. Show no Mercy to the SE.”
The transfers being from actual pre SE prints really sealed the deal for me.Yep, now that I have 4K77 and 4K83 I no longer bother with the Despecialized versions of SW and ROTJ.
Mike Verta has done some insane stuff with '77 prints. Too bad it'll never see the light of day though.The transfers being from actual pre SE prints really sealed the deal for me.
Hell what am I saying not just from pre SE prints but from an actual original theatrical print from 77 just 2 generations removed from the original negative
That’s 77.
For 83 i’m not as familiar with the source history.
With each change, it's becoming less like a galaxy, far, far away.This is not usually brought up as a prime unwelcome change but I hate the dialogue alteration in ESB when R2-D2 is spit out by a Dagobah swamp monster Luke’s original line was, "You're lucky you don't taste very good."
The SE changed it to, "You were lucky to get out of there."
Ugh so bland and not as brilliantly witty.
That being said ESB SE is the least offensive as it all comes down to how one feels about the dialogue changes between Vader and the Emperor altering who knew what and when regarding Luke.
Fett’s voice also remains a non starter for some when it comes to accepting ESB SE as their version.
Vader’s “Alert my star destroyer” is not as bad as Fett’s alteration but a tone killing change nonetheless.
Ughh I need a drink now lol
I’m sure it’s only a matter of time until Disney uses voice replacement AI to make him say “Then I’ll see you in the World Between Worlds. Onward!” (Since “Hyah!” is too cowboy)
Cannot change the "Hyah!". A samurai space western this shall remainI’m sure it’s only a matter of time until Disney uses voice replacement AI to make him say “Then I’ll see you in the World Between Worlds. Onward!” (Since “Hyah!” is too cowboy)

Daisy says the new film will be "cool as s***".
She's hardly going to say it'll be crap. Although she did say s***, so that might be a tip off.Daisy says the new film will be "cool as s***".

SE or original... "What the hell are you doing?" ...always bothered me. It's very terrestrial.
Is there Hell in a galaxy far, far away?
