Note to George "The Wanker" Lucas:
I understand that you want to "complete the story" and "complete the vision", but guess what: all you've done is break up the continuity of every single film. Anytime you add something new, it is glaringly new. Like changing all of the music scenes in Jedi? Especially in the scene in Jabba's palace. What the hell? Why not just go whole hog and dress up Beyonce to sing some R&B craptastic song that will soon climb the charts to #1? And another thing: the song at the end of Jedi with the Ewoks? That's one of my favorite parts of the movie, you bastard. (No, the Ewoks were not my favorite part, I loved the happy song. It's a long story.)
So to sum it up: Yes, I am happy to have the trilogy on DVD. But you didn't make the movies any better with your additions. Not one bit. So there. Thhhhhppppbbbbbtttttt
I still haven't watched the movies yet, but the things I was most worried about were the Gungans that were supposed to be in the end scene of Jedi and I was worried how new CGI graphics of things like the Jedi Tower would look in with the old stuff.

Yeah it all sucks. George Lucas sucks. But I still love Han.

Then you will be happy to know that in an interview with the producer of the DVD set, that Lucas has no plans to release the originals as he considers those incomplete. He also said to expect the Mega pack with all 6 movies and loads of new stuff around 2007.

I have made my peace with George Lucas. He is a butthead with too much time on his hands, but I have an undying love for a young Harrison Ford, so I am willing to compromise.

The WORST part of the damn "new" trilogy is that scene in the first movie where Han Solo STEPS OVER JABBA'S TAIL and it looks so jerky and stupid that I couldn't even contain myself.

um. I think the most unrealistic, dissatisfying parts of the movie(s) are the sound effects of space ships flying over planets, and lasers or other weaponry being discharged in space. I mean COME ON -- ITS A VACUUM. SOUND WAVES CANNOT PROPAGATE THROUGH SPACE. I.E. THERE IS NO SOUND IN SPACE.
so annoying.

Wait, you're saying that "jub jub" song is one of your favorite parts? Really?

I can't help it, I get all emotional at the end, when everyone is dancing around, and the Ewoks are playing drums with the Storm Trooper helmets, and Luke looks outside and sees his daddy and Obiwan and Yoda and then the music swells...Sniff...I just love it! And now it's ruined.
