They added in Naboo during the celebration scene near the end. Jar Jar screams out, "Wesa free!" I'm not kidding. I personally think its a neat tie in to the prequels, but that's just me.

They also stuck in the Jedi Temple in the Coruscant scene.

Ha..that probably ruins the trilogy. They have to add Jar Jar in at the end...*shakes head*..well I guess it would make sense because of the prequels. And by the way, I never despised the Ewoks. They weren't annoying, and they were actually pretty smart. I tried to find out what they were saying when they talked, one time, but I failed miserably.

Okay, I read the changes list, but im still slightly confused on one thing. When luke takes vaders helmet off...they havent replaced that sebastian shaw with Hayden Christain's head there have they? Because that would be just wrong, IMO.

No, when Luke takes Vader's helmet off, it is still Sebastian Shaw's head (and voice). The only alteration to that scene is the removal of Sebastian's eyebrows to (assumedly) better fit what happens to Anakin in RotS.

****

On the bonus disc the DVD set, there is a "Making of" documentary of all three films called Star Wars: Empire of Dreams. It is AWESOME. The documentary is two and a half hours long (longer than any of the movies) and covers just about everything from THX-1138 to Episode II. Obviously, most of the time is spent in the making of the Star Wars trilogy; everything else is just kind of glazed over (especially the SE and prequels).

The doc is filled with information. It also includes some deleted dialogue that didn't make it into any version of the films ("And you call yourselves human.") and auditions and stuff.

I really enjoyed it.

George Lucas apparently said that when a Jedi becomes a spirit, it's in the form of the last time he/she was "pure" or what have you... That being Anakin when he was younger (As in before he becomes Darth Vader, which means when the age he's at when being played by Hayden Christensen in Episode 3)... Not when he was some sort of elderly or middle-aged-ish good Anakin which there never was (The original scene with Sebastian Shaw)...

*shrug*
I read it the other day in some looooong thread on a star wars fanatic message board, so I don't have a link or a direct quote...

I havn't seen the trilogy since the special edition came out on VHS... I never saw the big deal about things people complained about (Ewoks, for example... Or Greedo shooting first in the special edition) I'm gonna pick it up tomorrow hopefully... Yup...

as soon as i finish watching ROTJ, i plan to watch them all over again with the directors commentary on, should be pretty interesting.

They replaced Boba Fett's original voice with Temuera Morrison, who plays Jango Fett in the prequels. Makes sense to me. I have no problem with it.

boba fett is a clone of his father?

Boba is an unaltered clone of Jengo Fett

yep, clearly states it in Ep. II, the rest of the republican army (read "Empire Army") is made still of Jango Fett clones, except genetically modified to be perfect soldiors.
