That's one of the better changes actually. It shows Ben's gradual decay from his constant solitude. You can hear from his voice that he's just not all there anymore.

The Jabba one might have been a better example, but that too was a much needed expository scene.

Hello Reddit.

>>64238650
>The Jabba one might have been a better example, but that too was a much needed expository scene.

literally nothing in that scene isn't already established with the scene with Greedo, it's redundant. plus Jabba is way too friendly and forgiving, he treats Han like a friend and not a cheap bastard who's ripping him off. This is the same space slug that two movies later murders his sex slave because she didn't want to kiss him

It's called character development you god damn redditurd. We are shown that Jabba can be forgiving and merciful BECAUSE Han is useful and generally reliable for him.

And then he fucks off to the Rebellion and doesn't pay his debts to Jabba. THIS is why the Jabba scene is so meaningful in VI. Han was a trusted friend for Jabba, and Han through that away.

This is all lost if the Jabba scene is cut (which it originally was). It was great that they put it back in.
>>

Funny that no one complained about that scene being missing for the first 20 years of the movie's release

Truly they are the God's representatives on Earth
>>
>>64239781
>Empire?
Yup. With A New Hope there's a ton of CGI, a completely unnecessary Jabba scene and Han shoots first. With Return of the Jedi there's a painfully awful, completely unnecessary CGI dance number and Darth Vader shouts "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" when he kills Sheev. Empire doesn't have any extremely noticeable changes. In the original 1997 special edition Luke screamed when he fell in Cloud City but the DVD and bluray special editions don't have that shit.
>>
>>64240314
>the rebel who destroyed the Death Star is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker

Vader acts surprised despite, you know, the fact that he's been hunting Luke Skywalker for the first half of the movie already

Honestly some of the complaints about the special editions don't make much sense to me. For the most part they seem relatively innocuous and I actually like a few of them like Boba's voice change.

Hey at least it was an effort to address some of the inconsistencies between the PT and the OT. I honestly think that some people just don't like it because it reminds them that the prequels exist.
>>
>>64242060
Accents are not genetic, so there is no reason the voice should have been dubbed with a NZ accent.
>>
>>64242060
If they fucking wanted to address the inconsistencies with the PT and OT they would've fucking altered the prequels not the originals.
>>
>>64240521
ROTJ also has Hayden Christenson needlessly added as the ghost of Anakin.
>>
>>64237817
Despecialized is all over the internet. So are the laser disc versions. Special edition isn't even that bad.
>>
>>64242758
That was the biggest "fuck you" of all.

It completely negates Anakin's redemption. Rather than being redeemed and dying as an old man—the "Jedi" having "returned"—, Lucas is saying the real Anakin died in ROTS and his redemption was ultimately pointless.
>>
There is not a single thing in the special editions that is an objective improvement over the original
yub nub set the tone better, and even sheev in Empire came with the issue of completely changing vader's character into only just then learning that luke was his son

Wanna know the worst part? That's the fucking 2004 edition.

Most of it is pretty harmless. I get the debate about Han shooting first, because it does change his character. But the song in RotJ is fucking atrocious.

>>64237817
I just watched the semi-specialized editions, they weren't that bad. Certainly not bad enough to fuss over.
