The way I see it is that since you must not have any hate nor evil in your heart to become one with the force (as Yoda was told on the sith homeworld), it would make sense that when he becomes one with the force he returns to his youngerself before he turned into Vader.
+NDAIA No it doesn't. He slaughtered younglings. There's a special hell for him....one reserved only for child molesters and people who talk in the theatre.
I disagree, the added 3D band song is by FAR the worst addition. I literally skip it every time and am embarrassed of it when showing star wars films to people who haven't seen it.
Well, the original version was not much better. We still have the original version on VHS somewhere and even in that one I always skip the song. But they somehow managed to make it even worse.
I often disagree with 'watchmojo' - like the choice to hire their voice over girl. She sounds like she should be doing Entertainment Tonight voice overs. Like seriously, if u dont know what that is, search for it and you'll be like, "damn, did she used to work there?"
unfortunately in these modern times, the original versions aren't the ones on Amazon Video or On Demand or DVD. so it's not always that easy to get to watch them unless you go for some low quality illicit Internet stuff.
That's the worst change IMO, Lapti Nek fits the mood of Jabba's Palace much better, whereas "Jedi Rocks" just seems like it's trying too hard to be 'current', when all it does is make a mockery of the whole scene! The music doesn't fit the mood of the sleazy gangsters den setting, the singing is just embarrassing, especially the made up language which just ends up sounding like baby talk, and it doesn't flow as effortlessly in and out of the scene like Lapti Nek does! What was George Lucas thinking?!
+Paul Staker I thought you meant the ending. That was such a beatiful song - Victory Celebration by John Williams. :-) The Jedi Rocks song is horrible.
I love that scene! It adds to Boba's character. So many think Boba is so cooling having almost no lines, and I don't have a problem with a more silent character, but in the movies Boba (Though quite the badass) is barely a character and has little personality.
@Anakin Skywalker Disney: Furthermore, I have the sequel trilogy's main protagonist be a woman. I am altering the saga. Pray I don't alter it any further.
Think of it like the film 'Jaws', the beginning is scary because of the unknown danger that keeps getting closer and closer, that's what the wampa was. While the wampa does look cool, a lot of people feel that the tense atmosphere was toned down since the audience can see what the danger is.
tbh i liked the Temuera Morrison voice change but that's because i grew up with the prequels and love Jango. The voice change was acknowledging the prequels for me and think the old timers didn't like that fact.
@@805Franco Plus, Temuera's voice is so much more scruffy and fitting for a Mando bounty hunter. Also, about OP's comment, a bounty hunter makes money for a reason right, women are often that reason for wealth. So yeah, good point. Reminds me of that conversation in Game of Thrones where Bronn talks about the Unsullied and mercenary work.
Ok folks, here's the story behind Darth Vader's big "NOOO" in Return of the Jedi. Phone rings. James Earl Jones: Hello? George Lucas: Hey James, I was wondering if you could provide some additional voice work for the blu ray release of Return of the Jedi. James Earl Jones: No. George Lucas: Oh thanks. That's all I really needed anyway. James Earl Jones: NOOOOOO! George hangs up.
Han flat our murders Greedo because he is a hardened smuggler and not to be messed with. Having Greedo shoot at all totally diminishes Han's character. He's not a nice guy.
Harrison Ford wanted Han to die a heroic death at the end of ROTJ, in order to redeem himself and also bring emotional weight. Lucas wouldn't have it. Obviously he had something else in mind, like letting tiny teddy bears take out a division of Stormtroopers. Pretty sure the only reason Harrison Ford agreed to do EpVII was because he was promised the death he wanted for Han.
+Nicolai Jensen look up something called "the despecialized edition" a couple of guys managed to remaster the original cuts in 1080p and you can download it for free, it's really good!
To answer your question: Yes. Apparently Luke screams like an 80 year old who's got diarrhoea. Good thing Leia picked Han and never had to hear Luke cum.
The whole point of Han shooting Greedo in "the original way" was to make it obvious that this wasn't an ethical person and he might not even be trustworthy. It's like Geroge Lucas has some kind of script amnesia and can't remember what the purpose of the scene was. Because right at the start, you had ZERO idea whether or not Han Solo was good, bad or indifferent.
Not to mention it's not as though Greedo hadn't made his intention perfectly clear. Greedo had a gun pointed at him and Han didn't want to give him a chance to fire first. Han wasn't being murderous, he was being pragmatic.
also it doesn't make sense for Greedo to shoot at all, since he wanted to collect the bounty on Han, and Bounties for people are usually bigger if the subject is alive.
Vader's "NOOO!" before he turned on Palpatine to save Luke was even worse. It was so much better having Vader silent, you could just feel the conflict he had of having to choose between his master or son in the few crucial seconds he had to decide.
0IIIIII no, that’s fine if you like Jedi rocks more but the puppets just look better at least in my opinion. They’re actually real objects and won’t look dated in 10 years like how phantom menace does
@@0IIIIII practical effects age in a god way. You can tell theyre puppets but it looks classic and you can tell theyre great for their time. Cgi looks she'd as fuck within a few years and instantly looks shit
Patrick I’ve never seen that before and man that is just out of this world bad! It just ruins the moment that scene didn’t need dialogue even though Vader has a mask you can still see an expression almost to tell you what he’s thinking
@@tinokatz4778 I was about to make that comment myself....yes I agree the added no in ROTJ was necessary but I got irritated at the dumb bitch narrator taking a shot at the no in ROTS. Can someone get the memo to this idiot that the majority of fans rank ROTS very highly among the 9 star wars movies and the majority of fans like the prequels. I hardly ever hear people bitching about Episode 3
+Nate Emond It's the only change that I fast-forward through every time, It's just painful to sit through. At least the other crappy changes are mostly over in a second or two.
Lucas Stecz Yes it is. A five minute sequence cannot possibly ruin the beginning or the film in general for the same reason it's impossible for a trailer to spoil the entire film it's advertising. It's just 5 minutes out of the rest of the 2 hours.
Download the DeSpecialized editions. They're available fro all good torrent sites. Original trilogy in BluRay quality with absolutely NO retrospective changes, all movies are as they were released and completely untouched
THey resealed the original versions on DVD i think in 04 or 08 or something. The release was so limited that if you want to buy them, they are crazy expensive on Amazon.
+Jeffrey Hopson I agree and accents are rarely genetic and changed via culture and people you grow with, Boba lost his father when he was young and brought up all over the galaxy
+Daniel Roberts I wasn't trying to say it was good. But they went with the idea that all the clones sounding like that so it makes sense Bobba would. But the comment above brings up a valid point that accents tend to be brought on by where you stay. The same country can have multiple accents so they could have very well left his voice alone.
Looks like SOMEONE doesn't understand what "canon" means. I hate the prequels, but they're canon. That isn't a matter of opinion, it is a fact whether you like it or not. You don't get to decide what's canon. If that's how it works I could choose to believe that Lord of the Rings is canon in the Star Wars universe, or that Empire Strikes Back never happened. Also Jabba is Luke's father and Chewbacca is Han Solo's twin brother.
+Liam Fosdike yeah the prequel movies weren't too good but the universe they created with games like rogue squadron the battlefront series kotr and tv shows like clone wars and the clone wars (why'd they have to make it confusing) makes them great additions to Star Wars
Doryu RPG Exactly, though disney thinks no one want to be reminded of them so they try to avoid the Clone Wars era entirely. Hence why their is no clone wars era in the new star wars Battlefront.
AphidLuL Yeah but Anakin died a Sith Apprentice who had murdered hundreds of Jedi including younglings. He didn’t redeem himself until he died as Vader which is why Sebastian Shaw should still be there
Yeah but if Anakin was played by Hayden Christensen which was the younger version of the character as a force ghost wouldn't it make sense that Obi-Wan would be Ewan McGregor since the age they both were during the prequel trilogy.
I think Harrison Ford said it best, "I don't care!" I love Star Wars, but seriously, to all those who constantly complain, "SHUT UP and just sit down watch the movies!"
Well, it would make more sense for Anakin to have been as old as he was in his final moments ( which was also when he was last a Jedi ) like Obi-Wan and Yoda. I consider the special edition change to be pretty unnecessary.
What?!?! Luke's "added scream" in Empire Strikes Back is, no joke, THE EMPEROR'S original scream as he was falling down the shaft of the Death Star at the end of Return of the Jedi! AAAAAARGH! D:
That explains why when I heard it all I could think was that sounds 100% like Palpatine. Like zero attempt to make it not sound like him. That was just a lazy addition for no reason.
And the scream you hear from one of Jabas henchmen when falling into the pit, is the same exact scream you hear in almost every movie ever made before a man dies.
supreme84x Agree. I always saw Episode IV as the redemption of Han Solo. Before Han and Chewie met Luke and Leia, they were CRIMINALS who only cared about money. Shooting Greedo first showed that criminal mentality. After meeting Luke and Leia, Han became attached to them and began to care about them. He changed for the better.
I agree. The hiding behind the rock makes sense. You want to hide from the sand people instead of being easily exposed. As for the wampa, well, I think the audience needs to know what was Luke dealing with. It showed barely any details in the original.
@@AbeVsTheWorld And why does the audience NEED to see the wampa? It dilutes the tension and fear of the unknown and makes the whole scene less claustrophobic since rather then being restricted to luke's pov, you suddenly get to see the wampa casually eating "oh its ok, luke's still got time to get free". Not to mention it increases the fear factor when you finally do glimpse the wampa. It transforms the dynamic of the scene totally, and all that for very little gain.
@@aarong6416 I think the main problem is that there is no alternative, that there is still no blu-ray re-release of the originals, so getting the unedited versions legally is really difficult.
The rock thing absolutely deserves hate, the chancing perspective screws up the issue of how R2 could get out of that situation. I'm genuinely indifferent on the issue of the added Wampa scene, but that may be because I saw the version without the extra shot of it first.
You are totally right. I didn't mind half of these edits but when I saw that scene, I facepalmed. It just took all of the emotion out of that scene. In the originals my first time watching episode 6, my mouth hit the floor when Vader turned on the emperor (I was 4) I didn't see it coming. But In just that one "noo" you take all surprise and emotion out of that awesome scene. Most of the edits I'm fine with, but this is just terrible.
That change make me want to cry because you're right it sucks the emotion out of that scene, we don't need to hear or see what Vader is thinking because as the audience we already know what he is thinking as the Emporer is about to kill his son. The addition of "nooo" just ruins that whole scene, i mean why change it? Whats the point? It makes me angry.
"People who alter or destroy works of art and our cultural heritage for profit or as an exercise of power are barbarians. Our cultural history must not be allowed to be rewritten. " - George Lucas, 1988.
+DarthRushy that statement applies to outside forces changing or destroying works of art. this situation does not apply. most of these changes do absolutely nothing and are only bothersome if your a whiny idiot. the only one that is stupid is the "jedi rocks" one
mstrofthunvrse And the one where Darth Vader screams no. And the one where Hayden Christensen appears at the end. And the one where Greedo shoots first. And the pointless CGI crap.
i really dont understand why they feel the need to do all these changes what was wrong with the original cut. they need to have an original remaster unaltered version.
***** i understand that. i guess what im trying to say is a dvd isnt HD. yeah you can upscale it but that not true HD. anyways thank you for telling me.
That awkward moment when you realize that Boba Fett, the so-called infamous ruthless bounty hunter who is loved and adored by so many fans is never shown to actually kill someone in the movies.
The thing that annoys me the most about Greedo shooting first/simultaneously is he's sat just across the table. Your partially sighted great grandmother wouldn't miss at that range, so there's no way a veteran bounty hunter like Greedo would fail to hit the target
+Yavvay If I remember correctly, the reason for the scene change was to soften the movie a bit and "make it clear to children that Han had no choice but to shoot " as HelloGreedo and someone on stackexchange stated. Which makes the change even more pointless because, although children are impressionable, they aren't stupid. Children for the most part aren't going to start shooting people for no reason if they saw the unedited scene, even the youngest of kids that know what a gun is probably know shooting people for no reason is a really bad idea. Its like that one Christian paranoia film where two guys talk about how evil and satanic certain toys are, saying at one point that when kids play with them, the kids actually think they are the guy that the toy is supposed to look like, like its some kind of voodoo doll. Of course, kids don't actually think that, they're just using their imaginations. In a similar vein, did Lucas or someone else really think that kids who saw Han Solo shoot Greedo are gonna want to start shooting people and want to get into smuggling? No, no they aren't. Hence why this scene is pointless, because the audience the change caters to wouldn't give a crap either way and aren't as stupid as executives like to think they are. /rant
+Michael Russell Greedo wasn't a veteran anything, that's the thing. He was seriously just a wannabe. He shows his inexperience by allowing Han to get his hand under the table. In 1977, it would have been instantly obvious to most watching the film; westerns were a large part of Americana in that era and the Mos Eisley Cantina scene parallels the classic frontier saloon scene: the overconfident or inexperienced thug allows his opponent to get his hand under the poker table, whereupon there's a hole in the table and the thug.
No, it lost all credibility when the Hayden Christensen ghost replacement wasn't #1. It doesn't even make any sense. Vader is an old man. They didn't replace Obi Wan with a younger version.
Personally for me #1 was the gungan screaming, and number 2 was the cringey CGI Jedi Rocks. The Greedo shooting first didn’t bother me a bunch it was certainly unnecessary though
I actually don't mind Hayden as Anakin... That is, whenever he just shuts up, stares menacingly, fights, or jokes with Kenobi. I mostly liked the episode III version of him, more specifically, when he becomes darth vader (not the scene where he gets the suit, but the scene where he gets his sith name). His evil stare and determined look is just so darth vader like. I can really imagine the same spirit and emotion behind the black suited version of him, and it actually fits how he acts in the suit. But I think Hayden really sucked at the "emotional talks" with Padme and all that shit.
Sami Suhonen he was awful. The only scene I ever give him credit for is the one where he finds his mom. He's so perfect right there. Anger overrides everything, we see Vader, than he's just an angsty teen again. That's the only scene I'll give him credit for. I hated him. And yes most blame the script, but let's face it some actors could talk about sand and we'd be all into it.
Heather Taylor Anakin was kind of supposed to be "an angsty teen". The failure of the scenes where he had to do emotional talk were 3/5 his fault, and 2/5 the cheesy lines.
Did WatchMojo do a best changes list? The only one I'm familiar with was WhatCulture's. And they put the Wampa on that one. I agree, though. I never had a problem with the Wampa's appearance in the Special Edition onwards. It was a decent costume, and it's not like it was dodgy CGI or anything.
I remember they did a list of true loves in comics and included Jean Grey and cyclops. Then the same narrator did a list of love triangles and creatures cyclops and jean grey twice in that list
Watchmojo doesn’t actually make these lists. People post there ideas for top 10 lists, people are allowed to add any content they choose a submission that meets the criteria, and they make the list based on that. They don’t actually come up with 5 lists every single day that they research and ranked by themselves.
Lucas' explanation for making Hayden Christensen the ghost makes no sense. He said it was because "that was the last time Anakan was good" but (1) he was good in death and (2) that's just stupid
Well in my opinion it makes completely sense, if you have ever readed the history of General Grievous taking as an example, Grievous had his original biological body completely destroyed after a battle against the Jedi to save his people. The battle was really part of Palpatine plot to make Grievous hate de Jedi, and it worked he has his body entired destroyed but was replaced by a macanicle corpse that holded his organs, but he was unnable to have feelings anymoreand could only focus on his hate for the Jedi. The same occurs with Anakin in a quite different way, as Obi-Wan says, he is not pretty much human anymore being mostly machine, he is still alive and can fight and sense the force, but he is pretty much just a Chell of power that is used by the Emperor to destroy whoever he wants. Sorry for bad english....
With Vader's "No" while the Emperor is shocking Luke, they shoulda just kept it at the FIRST "No" that he said, the low one.... that would've just sounded way better than the yelling one afterwards....
Watch the Star Wars Despecialized Editions. They are a Blu-Ray quality, perfect recreation of the original trilogy, by a huge fan community effort. Jeremy Jahns just did a video talking about them. Look up the Despecialized Editions on TH-cam.
It was most likely a warning shot just meant to scare Han, nothing else. Jabba still trusted Han at that time, he only wanted to get his money back. I highly doubt Jabba would have allowed one of his bounty hunters to kill Han.
Cuz it is kind of a dick move. Imagine yourself almost getting eaten by a swamp monster and then your master making a joke out of it,it just feels out of place,no matter how quippy you are
I always wondered why it was Sebastian Shaw who got replaced and not Sir Alec Guinness with Ewan McGregor. After all, Sir Alec was no shrinking violet about how much he hated "Star Wars" and Lucas. If anyone deserved to be replaced, it was him.
Larry Wilson That’s because Obi-Wan was with the force when he died. There would be absolutely no reason to make him younger. They made Anakin younger because the last time he was with the force was when he was young.
Changes I fine with: -Boba Fett voice. It fits him and the rest of the Star Wars universe. -Jabba added. I like the idea that this scene happened without us knowing. I would prefer it to stay out the movie, but I fine with. I just like the idea that this scene happened. That rodian could be some other bounty hunter. I know some rodian bounty hunters look like Greedo but are not Greedo. Adding Boba Fett was kick ass and bad ass. -Hayden Christensen. I get what Lucas was going with. I fine either way with or without the changes. And I like the new victory scenes added.
I say this every time. For us younger folks who watched 4-6 then 1-3 it made way more sense for us to have Hayden Christensen at the end. It makes it sad, and feel as though it's gone full circle. For those that don't like the changes...just don't buy them? Yeah idk why people complain so much when they can just not buy/watch those editions. I like to change it up sometimes so I have 3 different editions but I don't see why people moan so over changes that are easily avoidable.
Actually stormtroopers are not clones. Clones were phase out within the first year if the empires reign. By the empire strikes back, there were no more clone stormtroopers because of their accelerated aging
@@Svnfold The stormtroopers were never clones, not even in the beginning. They were the successors, which is why they are labeled as tk-#### and fn-#### not ct-####.
RaggleFraggle! There's nothing wrong with adding a little extra to polish the movie. Would you rather keep the original VHS version than watch it in 1080p HD?
Karl Hiramanek Sometimes watching an old vhs is more enjoyable. E.g. Laurel & Hardy always seem better in black & white. The changes in Star Wars add nothing to the experience, only cause confusion between different age groups.
RaggleFraggle! of course not, because who would want them to make any major changes? Like you said, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. All they do is make small tweaks that improve the overall look of the movie. Personally I have no problem with old school tv and movies, I still find the original 1977 Star Wars to look unbelievably good. At the same time, I don't deny that the 2011 special edition makes it look even better.
+Karl Hiramanek, but the parade of CG characters in A New Hope and Greedo shooting first was completely uncalled for and definatelly both detremented from the movie and confused me
Adding Hayden Christensen was not one of the worst, but actually the best thing about the Special Edition. Since I was born in 1998, I saw the prequel trilogy first, and after Revenge of The Sith, I was missing Anakin so much! Luckily, I have never came across the original edition, I watched only the special edition New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. And then, in the final movie, I was awestruck when I saw Anakin again as a ghost, for me, it was the perfect happy ending to the saga! George Lucas knew that kids at my age are gonna grow up watching Hayden Christensen as Anakin, so it was a very wise decision from him to replace Anakin's ghost with him!
1) Hayden was shit 2) Obi Wans ghost was Alec Guinness. Yoda's ghost was an old Yoda. So it makes sense to have the ghost of Anakin as a younger version. right? RIGHT?
Connor Webb I'm just guessing, but look. He was the chosen one, he brought peace to the galaxy, while going through a sh*tload of suffering. In my opinion, he deserves to be young forever!
And regarding that Hayden Christensen played Anakin in Episode 2 & 3, including him makes much more sense. But I would have loved to see Ewan McGregor and the Yoda appearing as he did in the prequels as well.
+Bartu Muzo Really? I thought alot of the color effects looked like shit, especially in a New Hope where everyone looks pink. Unless you are talking about the fixed lightsaber/blaster effects, those were fine.
krauser979 Ugh, i'd rather have the terrible puppet they used for Yoda in Episode 1 than the terrible looking cartoon Yoda. Especially when the cartoon Yoda is so badly added in.
My thoughts on the whole Han shot first controversy, he did shoot first! And on the subject of being ethical, Greedo was going to try to kill him either way that part was clear Han was just smarter and quicker and he didn’t hesitate and that sums up the character well
The worst part about all these changes is that I didn't even realize a lot of them. The special edition is the version I grew up with. Lucas effectively erased the original version for a lot of younger people.
I remember when my parents bought me the DVD set of Episodes 4-6 they were both really confused when Sy Snootles started singing Jedi Rocks. Both of them were going back and forth saying "Do you remember this?" "This wasn't here before"
Except when they made the Clone Wars TV show, Boba doesn't even sound like that. Also, accents aren't genetic; It's still weird to me that all the clones have his accent.
UGH The WORST one, (by FAR ) is the Sy Snoodles musical number at Jabba's palace! Here it's #5 but it should be #1 The CG Jabba talking to Han Solo is a close 2nd. for me! (it's #3 here)
TheHavokWarrior Actually, that wasn’t Disney's fault. It was the last change Lucas made before selling Lucasfilms to them. All Disney did was release something that was collecting dust for 7 years.
+superbradOpig Suuuure because in reality Luke would definitely recognize THAT young brat has his own father right? pfft Not to mention undermine the performance of the actor who originally played older Vader.
The only Special Edition change that I didn't mind was actually when they showed the Wampa. The effect looked really good ... Because it was practical! It looked like an actual part of the film. But yeah, screw the Special Editions. I refuse to buy the Blu-Rays. I've already bought several different versions of the trilogy; I've decided that if I buy the Trilogy again, it's going to be when the pure, unbastardized version is released. Until then, I'm just going to enjoy the fanmade Despecialized Edition.
+spiderleenie preach. ever since they released that, fox's BS excuse "it's impossible to release the original cuts" or something along those lines is just lame. if an internet project and do it, it can be done.
+degree7 Yeah, that's the one that I think most people agree is better. The sweeping vocals just fits better than some disjointed tribal music when you're dealing with the fall of the Galactic Empire.
+spiderleenie Beside the Wampa, I didn't mind the update to Empire Strikes Back with the hologram of the Emperor, just because of how out of place the original hologram was in comparison to the Emperor when we saw him in RotJ. I know they hadn't finalized the design by ESB, so I understand why the hologram looked the way it did, but I feel the change made at least made some sense.
Right? The wampa was great, changing voices and tweaking faces for consistency is fine, too. I was 13 and at an advanced screening for IV and people loved it at the time.
That no should not be there. Also the voice change for Boba Fett is a logical one in universe since Boba is a clone of his father, so I'm pretty sure he would sound like him when grown up.
I thought boba was fine, the wampa was fine, the song was eh not a big deal, the rest were god awful though. And adding jaba in was fine too. And these dumbasses don't realize there is more than one of greedo's speecies? People saying why is Greedo in that seen. He's not he's dead could be the same type of alien though
I kinda think the number 2 was right. They made an entiiiiire trilogy ending with Anakin turning definitely into darth Vader and using the actor as the new ghost of anakin in episode IV made sense. his appearance as the young man with shoulder-long hair was his jedi self, and thus, his form preserved as a "force ghost". Its a fitting theory that a jedi's ghost reflects when he was a jedi, and when he turns into a sith, this image is lost.
But that theory also doesn't make sense. He became a Jedi again in the end, so his Jedi self is his older self. It was much better to see him old but healed.
But the original was, if anything, even worse: Sebastian Shaw was 77 (9 years older than Alec Guinness) at the time, Anakin/Vader was supposed to be 45.
+gold3n rul3- Please shut up, anyone that has an extensive knowledge of the star wars canon and legends knows that Anakin and Darth Vader where completely separate people... when he turned into Vader Anakin had basically died and Vader took over, He is a young ghost because he died good so his force ghost represented the last time Anakin had been a good guy. Not the body that had been Darth Vader.
Well, it would make more sense for Anakin to have been as old as he was in his final moments ( which was also when he was last a Jedi ) like Obi-Wan and Yoda. I consider the special edition change to be pretty unnecessary.
@@willycheez7218 Well, he looked like Hayden Christensen when he committed plenty of evil acts also. George Lucas made it so Anakin was a cold-blooded killer even before he turned to the Dark Side. He had darkness as well as light in him, but he looked like Sebastian Shaw at the end when he was least consumed by darkness.
@@CulturalMarxist4985 Sebastian Shaw looks like a proud father looking down on his son, Hayden looks like he's getting ready to murder everyone. I'm not entirely sure How Luke is supposed to recognize Anakin like that either.
How in the world can you put changing Boba's voice on there?! The old voice wasnt that great and Temeura does it so well. Not to mention it makes sense since he is a clone and should have the clone voice.
It's bullshit. The voice was fine and he was never a clone. You think George had that all planned out in 1983? Please. Vader was never even originally Luke's father. Lucas should have hired someone who sounded like a badass. Not some wife beating sheep shagger.
1. Darth Vader yelling noo 2. Jedi Rocks song 3. Han not shooting first 4. Changing Obi Wan's yell at the sand people 5. Luke screaming at Bespin 6. Changing Boba Fett's voice 7. Hayden Christensen being put in ROTJ 8. All of the added in effects 9. Sarlack Pit 10. The rock in front of R2-D2
Well, it would make more sense for Anakin to have been as old as he was in his final moments ( which was also when he was last a Jedi ) like Obi-Wan and Yoda. I consider the change to be pretty unnecessary.
@@jasondeandulierjr.299 Well, not only does the change not make any sense, but it's also sort of disrespectful to Sebastian Shaw whose role was small enough.
Shanez1215 No she said Stormtroopers. She doesn't know that proves that she doesn't have a opinion by herself and WatchMojo is trying to get Likes by the Majority of Original Trilogy Fans instead of having an own opinion. So they just are super mainstream.
Dust Obi-Wan and Yoda died good. Always in the light side. Anakin went bad at a young age and it took him ages to redeem himself but he never really officially joined the light side again. So his ghost form would be his younger self from when he was good.
"Bring my shuttle" vs "alert my pansy ass shuttle to prepare for my ever so delicate arrival thus proving to all that less is more as Irwin Kirschner spins in his grave". I think that was the changed line from the "special edition" 😡
Swoop FPV Not to mention Lakti Nek was terrific! That song had a great beat and matched the mood perfectly, whereas Jedi Rock is cornball and just doesn’t match. Yuck.
There’s a few changes I liked, the new explosion of the Death Star, the wampa scene, return of the Jedi ending, and maybe the new backgrounds in cloud city? Anyway, I wish there was a way to pick and choose. I’d rather choose the originals at this point though.
Lucasfilms Executive (when Lucas decided that Greedo shot first): You said that would never be in the movie! Lucas: I am altering the Original Trilogy. Pray I don’t alter it any further.
What's wrong with seeing the full Wampa? I think that that was a perfect change. And who cares that they changed Boba Fett's voice? It adds much needed continuity. I wasn't a fan of his original voice anyway. It's not like they decided to switch out James Earl Jones for Hayden Christiansen or anything.
You got a point there. But what I find disappointing is that they never bothered to fix the Greedo scene in Episode 4 (dialogue-wise) once they reinstated the Jabba scene. Having read the novelization, I noticed that different lines were written there, but I'm guessing those takes were discarded once they set Jabba on the cutting room floor. Why else would we hear Han say "Even I get boarded sometimes. You think I had a choice?" twice?
I agree with you, adds to better continuity. Much like Ian McDiarmid's inclusion in Ep. V in the special edition release, it makes for a more cohesive whole when considering the prequels in relation to the OT.
I have no problem with the voice, but that scene in which he says "as you wish" was waaay better delivered by Jason Wingreen. It almost sounds like a "f* you", whereas Temuera Morrison is simply complying.
The problem is that before the second trilogy, most fans DID NOT imagine Boba Fett to be a much older bearded macho man type ,,, I think most fans thought Boba to be a little younger, more menacingly mysterious, a lot cooler and badass instead of the traditional bearded fatherly looking guy (or a clone of that guy) ... it really takes out the cool and mysterious factor for the character ...
Axl Vadze the original wampa is just bad. you can clearly see he is not moving at all and his "statue" is just pushed. to not show him at all would be better in this case but i think the new shot looks great. no cgi
Exactly, if it had been CGI, then it wouldn't be good anymore, but the fact that they used practical effects and costumes is amazing. I love the new Wampa scene.
You hipster nerds kill me, always crying about something being CGI yet you're probably running around with the latest piece of technology in your pocket.
actually my phone is really prehistoric and except credit card it is the only technology i have in my pocket...the thing is that cgi just look terribly out of place in 1980's movie. not to mention when it is tweaking with something weve been used for decades (and to worse effect). i understand digital cleaning like removing visible rotoscoping, or adjusting colors because of blue screen etc, but not replacing characters with bad looking cgi
I agree with you on the wampa and boba's voice. Putting young anakin in RotJ was a bad call in my opinion. If he can be young, why does obi have to be old? My main problem with this list is as much as i hate greedo shooting first. putting dumb cgi animals in front of the ENTIRE screen in mos eisley was the worst. I literally can't see the movie.
I think the reasoning behind it is that it was the last time Anakin was officially a Jedi, which is why Obi-Wan is old. I am personally indifferent, but it's just a theory.
What who tf dosen't like when Vader scream's no in ROTS? I love it, Since it's still Anakin who is screaming no after losing his only reason for turning to the dark side.

I was fine with Hayden, if you watch all six in order from 1-6, it does make you tear up a bit seeing him again, even if he was a brat.
The way I see it is that since you must not have any hate nor evil in your heart to become one with the force (as Yoda was told on the sith homeworld), it would make sense that when he becomes one with the force he returns to his youngerself before he turned into Vader.
Agreed I liked Christensen because it represented anakin before he joined the dark side
Like him or hate him, it takes away the, "Who's that guy? Holy crap, that's Vader!" moment. It's not a huge deal, but feels pointless really.
+NDAIA Yeah.....that's kind of creepy. *shivers!!!* Oh well, good luck! J.J. Abrams!!! You'll need it.
+NDAIA No it doesn't. He slaughtered younglings. There's a special hell for him....one reserved only for child molesters and people who talk in the theatre.
I disagree, the added 3D band song is by FAR the worst addition. I literally skip it every time and am embarrassed of it when showing star wars films to people who haven't seen it.
Well, the original version was not much better. We still have the original version on VHS somewhere and even in that one I always skip the song.
But they somehow managed to make it even worse.
I loved the original song. It was upbeat and quirky, and fit the scene perfectly.
I often disagree with 'watchmojo' - like the choice to hire their voice over girl. She sounds like she should be doing Entertainment Tonight voice overs. Like seriously, if u dont know what that is, search for it and you'll be like, "damn, did she used to work there?"
Why not show them the original versions then?
unfortunately in these modern times, the original versions aren't the ones on Amazon Video or On Demand or DVD. so it's not always that easy to get to watch them unless you go for some low quality illicit Internet stuff.
That musical number in Return of the Jedi.
Why.
Just why...
That's the worst change IMO, Lapti Nek fits the mood of Jabba's Palace much better, whereas "Jedi Rocks" just seems like it's trying too hard to be 'current', when all it does is make a mockery of the whole scene! The music doesn't fit the mood of the sleazy gangsters den setting, the singing is just embarrassing, especially the made up language which just ends up sounding like baby talk, and it doesn't flow as effortlessly in and out of the scene like Lapti Nek does! What was George Lucas thinking?!
+Paul Staker I thought you meant the ending. That was such a beatiful song - Victory Celebration by John Williams. :-) The Jedi Rocks song is horrible.
Patrik Šlégr Yeah the ending is nice.
I thought you meant the ending too lol. That Jedi Rocks song really is terrible.
+Paul Staker Because George is a grandfather who likes his grandchildren's cartoons i bet .
Fett flirting with the dancers is a good scene.
Ragnar's Finest I agree, but the song Jedi Rocks makes me want to gouge my eyes out
I love that scene! It adds to Boba's character. So many think Boba is so cooling having almost no lines, and I don't have a problem with a more silent character, but in the movies Boba (Though quite the badass) is barely a character and has little personality.

"These aren't the films we were looking for"
@Anakin Skywalker Disney: Furthermore, I have the sequel trilogy's main protagonist be a woman. I am altering the saga. Pray I don't alter it any further.
@Anakin Skywalker I know. But what people don't like about the sequels is that they made Rey a Mary Sue.
Let’s just be glad they didn’t replace Jabba with cgi in episode V and VI
Jabba wasn't in Episode V.
John Jamele He's in a new hope though
But in RotJ it looks like a puppet.
Jedi Knight
The puppet looks a lot better than the CGI Jabba.
Johnster the CGI one is so cringy looking it's hard to look.
Why is showing the full Wampa a dishonorable mention I thought it was kinda cool
Think of it like the film 'Jaws', the beginning is scary because of the unknown danger that keeps getting closer and closer, that's what the wampa was. While the wampa does look cool, a lot of people feel that the tense atmosphere was toned down since the audience can see what the danger is.
David Borengasser thanks
They thought adding color to whitewashed shots was a bad thing, their judgment is obviously impaired.
yeah. showing the full wampa was pretty cool.
agree they should have added the final song and cgi ending to the list. the ending before was much better.

@@crazycrazykhajiit8167 yeah that would be awesome

@@805Franco Plus, Temuera's voice is so much more scruffy and fitting for a Mando bounty hunter. Also, about OP's comment, a bounty hunter makes money for a reason right, women are often that reason for wealth. So yeah, good point.

Ok folks, here's the story behind Darth Vader's big "NOOO" in Return of the Jedi.
Phone rings.
James Earl Jones: Hello?
George Lucas: Hey James, I was wondering if you could provide some additional voice work for the blu ray release of Return of the Jedi.
James Earl Jones: No.
George Lucas: Oh thanks. That's all I really needed anyway.
James Earl Jones: NOOOOOO!
George hangs up.
So, does this mean James Earl Jones actually talks like Darth Vader all the time?
almost
Rob Hughes I would.
Underrated comment
Applause to this man!
8:21
In Boba's defense, I would probably also flirt with the dancers.
Han flat our murders Greedo because he is a hardened smuggler and not to be messed with. Having Greedo shoot at all totally diminishes Han's character. He's not a nice guy.
Though, J.J. Abrams and obviously George Lucas disagree (see: Star Wars 4 (ending), 6 and 7... 5th is flawless ; ) )
Harrison Ford wanted Han to die a heroic death at the end of ROTJ, in order to redeem himself and also bring emotional weight. Lucas wouldn't have it. Obviously he had something else in mind, like letting tiny teddy bears take out a division of Stormtroopers.
Pretty sure the only reason Harrison Ford agreed to do EpVII was because he was promised the death he wanted for Han.
Agreed. Also, this would mean he only survived because he got lucky and Greedo missed, not because Han was in control the whole time.
VB3 Han Solo is whoever George Lucas says he is.
ILOVEYOUSHIMA
Not anymore he’s not. Lucas no longer holds any power of Han, or anything else in Star Wars. He can never fuck it up again.
I just want the originals but with better visuals (no extra cgi, just better contrast etc)
+Nicolai Jensen look up something called "the despecialized edition" a couple of guys managed to remaster the original cuts in 1080p and you can download it for free, it's really good!
+Nicolai Jensen The despecialized edition got what you want.
Truman Kelly where can I watch this "despecialized version
***** I managed to torrent it
+Nicolai Jensen Disney is also releasing the theatrical cuts on blu ray they announced. Not sure when though
Han didn't shoot first
He was the only one who shot
He shot before Greedo got a chance to, so hence, he shot first
Mrbrico99 _ z
Exactly. Anyways, it's kind of preposterous to think Greedo would miss a shot from only 3 feet away.
Greedo is a bounty hunter u wouldn't exactly expect him to miss a target 3 feet away from him
Mrbrico99 _ greedo never even fucking fired
5:24 WTF isn't that the exact same scream as Palpatine when he gets thrown into the abyss by Vader in episode 6?
GZA I was literally thinking the same thing
To answer your question: Yes.
Apparently Luke screams like an 80 year old who's got diarrhoea. Good thing Leia picked Han and never had to hear Luke cum.
...
And also good thing she didn't pick her BROTHER
Would have thought that went without saying
@@riz6875 same here
The whole point of Han shooting Greedo in "the original way" was to make it obvious that this wasn't an ethical person and he might not even be trustworthy. It's like Geroge Lucas has some kind of script amnesia and can't remember what the purpose of the scene was. Because right at the start, you had ZERO idea whether or not Han Solo was good, bad or indifferent.
Not to mention it's not as though Greedo hadn't made his intention perfectly clear. Greedo had a gun pointed at him and Han didn't want to give him a chance to fire first. Han wasn't being murderous, he was being pragmatic.
also it doesn't make sense for Greedo to shoot at all, since he wanted to collect the bounty on Han, and Bounties for people are usually bigger if the subject is alive.
Greedo missing and hitting the wall from two feet away is also insulting and ridiculous
Clark Kent lel that was because he didin't use the scope😂
Fuck greedo, Han shot first
The only worst changes was JEDI ROCKS song in Return of the Jedi. Jabba's party was fine at 1980s but they change it into a CRAZY SONG
Vader's "NOOO!" before he turned on Palpatine to save Luke was even worse. It was so much better having Vader silent, you could just feel the conflict he had of having to choose between his master or son in the few crucial seconds he had to decide.
I liked Jedi Rocks, and the CGI is objectively better than puppets
0IIIIII no, that’s fine if you like Jedi rocks more but the puppets just look better at least in my opinion. They’re actually real objects and won’t look dated in 10 years like how phantom menace does
Tandem puppets are not better than CGI. You are blind lol
@@0IIIIII practical effects age in a god way. You can tell theyre puppets but it looks classic and you can tell theyre great for their time. Cgi looks she'd as fuck within a few years and instantly looks shit

That "Noooo"was so awful. The silent contemplation of Vader before he saves Luke is so epic.
Patrick I’ve never seen that before and man that is just out of this world bad! It just ruins the moment that scene didn’t need dialogue even though Vader has a mask you can still see an expression almost to tell you what he’s thinking
I agree that was wack. The Nooo in episode 3 though I thought was fine. Not sure why Mojo was shitting on it tbh
Fred Lewis I think the exact opposite
REvenge of the Sith one was bad
The one in Return of the Jedi was great
@@tinokatz4778 I was about to make that comment myself....yes I agree the added no in ROTJ was necessary but I got irritated at the dumb bitch narrator taking a shot at the no in ROTS. Can someone get the memo to this idiot that the majority of fans rank ROTS very highly among the 9 star wars movies and the majority of fans like the prequels. I hardly ever hear people bitching about Episode 3
I think the first "no" was fine, but the "NOOOOOO", was completely unnecessary
The entire Return of the Jedi singing scene ruins the beginning
+Nate Emond Its a minor thing. Minor things don't ruin beginnings or the movie itself in general
A 5 minute sequence is not minor.
I agree. Edited or not, the singing sequence SUCKS.
+Nate Emond It's the only change that I fast-forward through every time, It's just painful to sit through. At least the other crappy changes are mostly over in a second or two.
Lucas Stecz Yes it is. A five minute sequence cannot possibly ruin the beginning or the film in general for the same reason it's impossible for a trailer to spoil the entire film it's advertising. It's just 5 minutes out of the rest of the 2 hours.
Lucas should release a DVD/Blueray edition of the original films without alterations. I bet they would sell like hotcakes.
Asher8328 Sadly, Lucas is mentally crazy and loves to change the Star Wars films. Your idea is genius though
Or sell Like the tickets for endgame!

Download the DeSpecialized editions.
They're available fro all good torrent sites.
Original trilogy in BluRay quality with absolutely NO retrospective changes, all movies are as they were released and completely untouched
THey resealed the original versions on DVD i think in 04 or 08 or something. The release was so limited that if you want to buy them, they are crazy expensive on Amazon.
I mean it sucks for the actor who played and voiced Bobba Fett but that change at least makes a lot of sense
+Jeffrey Hopson I agree and accents are rarely genetic and changed via culture and people you grow with, Boba lost his father when he was young and brought up all over the galaxy
+Daniel Roberts I wasn't trying to say it was good. But they went with the idea that all the clones sounding like that so it makes sense Bobba would. But the comment above brings up a valid point that accents tend to be brought on by where you stay. The same country can have multiple accents so they could have very well left his voice alone.
Looks like SOMEONE doesn't understand what "canon" means. I hate the prequels, but they're canon. That isn't a matter of opinion, it is a fact whether you like it or not. You don't get to decide what's canon. If that's how it works I could choose to believe that Lord of the Rings is canon in the Star Wars universe, or that Empire Strikes Back never happened. Also Jabba is Luke's father and Chewbacca is Han Solo's twin brother.
+Liam Fosdike yeah the prequel movies weren't too good but the universe they created with games like rogue squadron the battlefront series kotr and tv shows like clone wars and the clone wars (why'd they have to make it confusing) makes them great additions to Star Wars
Doryu RPG Exactly, though disney thinks no one want to be reminded of them so they try to avoid the Clone Wars era entirely. Hence why their is no clone wars era in the new star wars Battlefront.
Adding christensen makes sense though. He looked like that when he (anakin) died
I agree
Anakin was revived in episode 6, when he turns on the Emperor when he's killing Luke. So it should have been Shaw.
AphidLuL Yeah but Anakin died a Sith Apprentice who had murdered hundreds of Jedi including younglings. He didn’t redeem himself until he died as Vader which is why Sebastian Shaw should still be there
Yeah but if Anakin was played by Hayden Christensen which was the younger version of the character as a force ghost wouldn't it make sense that Obi-Wan would be Ewan McGregor since the age they both were during the prequel trilogy.
@Gabriel Blume then that's Geogre Lucas' fault. Anakin appears at the end of 6, when he takes his mask off
I think Harrison Ford said it best, "I don't care!"

and cgi cgi cgi.... cgi
I loved that they added Hayden Christensen's Anakin in ROTJ, it made it a lot more emotional for me.
Duh
Me too
it sucked because it basically implied that anakin never redeemed himself at the end of ROTJ
Well, it would make more sense for Anakin to have been as old as he was in his final moments ( which was also when he was last a Jedi ) like Obi-Wan and Yoda. I consider the special edition change to be pretty unnecessary.
No. It's the worst. Hayden does not deserve to stand where Sebastian Shaw once did. It doesn't make any sense in the story.

Did GL think nobody would notice?
That explains why when I heard it all I could think was that sounds 100% like Palpatine. Like zero attempt to make it not sound like him. That was just a lazy addition for no reason.
And the scream you hear from one of Jabas henchmen when falling into the pit, is the same exact scream you hear in almost every movie ever made before a man dies.
Han shot first. Always.
supreme84x Agree. I always saw Episode IV as the redemption of Han Solo. Before Han and Chewie met Luke and Leia, they were CRIMINALS who only cared about money. Shooting Greedo first showed that criminal mentality. After meeting Luke and Leia, Han became attached to them and began to care about them. He changed for the better.
supreme84x Technically he was the only one who fired his blaster.
No, Han shot. Greedo died.
Yep, nobody shot second.
No. Greedo shot first.

The dishonorable mentions were honestly harmless or even justified...
I agree. The hiding behind the rock makes sense. You want to hide from the sand people instead of being easily exposed.
As for the wampa, well, I think the audience needs to know what was Luke dealing with. It showed barely any details in the original.
@@AbeVsTheWorld And why does the audience NEED to see the wampa? It dilutes the tension and fear of the unknown and makes the whole scene less claustrophobic since rather then being restricted to luke's pov, you suddenly get to see the wampa casually eating "oh its ok, luke's still got time to get free". Not to mention it increases the fear factor when you finally do glimpse the wampa.
It transforms the dynamic of the scene totally, and all that for very little gain.
It’s because as much hate as they get, there aren’t actually that many bad changes to the saga
@@aarong6416 I think the main problem is that there is no alternative, that there is still no blu-ray re-release of the originals, so getting the unedited versions legally is really difficult.
The rock thing absolutely deserves hate, the chancing perspective screws up the issue of how R2 could get out of that situation.
I'm genuinely indifferent on the issue of the added Wampa scene, but that may be because I saw the version without the extra shot of it first.
THE WORST ONE IS DARTH VADER SHOUTING "NOOOO" IN 2011 BLU RAY RELEASE OF RETURN OF THE JEDI
+91MoonKnight IT DESTROYS THAT FUCKING SCENE!!! IT RUINS IT!!! DOSE BASTARDS RUIN MY FAVOURITE SCENE IN ENTIRE TRILOGY!!!
You are totally right. I didn't mind half of these edits but when I saw that scene, I facepalmed. It just took all of the emotion out of that scene. In the originals my first time watching episode 6, my mouth hit the floor when Vader turned on the emperor (I was 4) I didn't see it coming. But In just that one "noo" you take all surprise and emotion out of that awesome scene. Most of the edits I'm fine with, but this is just terrible.
That change make me want to cry because you're right it sucks the emotion out of that scene, we don't need to hear or see what Vader is thinking because as the audience we already know what he is thinking as the Emporer is about to kill his son. The addition of "nooo" just ruins that whole scene, i mean why change it? Whats the point? It makes me angry.
+91MoonKnight I almost threw my remote at my TV when I heard it for the first time....
+91MoonKnight I totally agree with you. That's by far the WORST change they could have made

The thing that annoys me the most about Greedo shooting first/simultaneously is he's sat just across the table. Your partially sighted great grandmother wouldn't miss at that range, so there's no way a veteran bounty hunter like Greedo would fail to hit the target
+Yavvay If I remember correctly, the reason for the scene change was to soften the movie a bit and "make it clear to children that Han had no choice but to shoot " as HelloGreedo and someone on stackexchange stated.
Which makes the change even more pointless because, although children are impressionable, they aren't stupid. Children for the most part aren't going to start shooting people for no reason if they saw the unedited scene, even the youngest of kids that know what a gun is probably know shooting people for no reason is a really bad idea.
Its like that one Christian paranoia film where two guys talk about how evil and satanic certain toys are, saying at one point that when kids play with them, the kids actually think they are the guy that the toy is supposed to look like, like its some kind of voodoo doll. Of course, kids don't actually think that, they're just using their imaginations.
In a similar vein, did Lucas or someone else really think that kids who saw Han Solo shoot Greedo are gonna want to start shooting people and want to get into smuggling? No, no they aren't. Hence why this scene is pointless, because the audience the change caters to wouldn't give a crap either way and aren't as stupid as executives like to think they are.

+Michael Russell I guess Greedo must have some stormtrooper blood in him!
Greedo was drunk
+Michael Russell Greedo wasn't a veteran anything, that's the thing. He was seriously just a wannabe. He shows his inexperience by allowing Han to get his hand under the table. In 1977, it would have been instantly obvious to most watching the film; westerns were a large part of Americana in that era and the Mos Eisley Cantina scene parallels the classic frontier saloon scene: the overconfident or inexperienced thug allows his opponent to get his hand under the poker table, whereupon there's a hole in the table and the thug.

This list lost all credibility when Jedi Rocks wasn’t #1.
No, it lost all credibility when the Hayden Christensen ghost replacement wasn't #1. It doesn't even make any sense. Vader is an old man. They didn't replace Obi Wan with a younger version.
Personally for me #1 was the gungan screaming, and number 2 was the cringey CGI Jedi Rocks. The Greedo shooting first didn’t bother me a bunch it was certainly unnecessary though
Jedi rocks is a piece of art
bigbaddawg101 it’s because George Lucas himself said something “like Anakin “died” in episode 3 and was redeemed and brought back in 6”
Tandem I’m just saying how/why that change was implemented
I actually don't mind Hayden as Anakin... That is, whenever he just shuts up, stares menacingly, fights, or jokes with Kenobi. I mostly liked the episode III version of him, more specifically, when he becomes darth vader (not the scene where he gets the suit, but the scene where he gets his sith name). His evil stare and determined look is just so darth vader like. I can really imagine the same spirit and emotion behind the black suited version of him, and it actually fits how he acts in the suit.
But I think Hayden really sucked at the "emotional talks" with Padme and all that shit.
to be fair, I don't think any actor in the world could make these lines sound believeable or un-cringy.
Dracu 98 hmm true.
Sami Suhonen he was awful. The only scene I ever give him credit for is the one where he finds his mom. He's so perfect right there. Anger overrides everything, we see Vader, than he's just an angsty teen again. That's the only scene I'll give him credit for. I hated him. And yes most blame the script, but let's face it some actors could talk about sand and we'd be all into it.
Heather Taylor
Anakin was kind of supposed to be "an angsty teen".
The failure of the scenes where he had to do emotional talk were 3/5 his fault, and 2/5 the cheesy lines.
I dunno. I thing those stupid lines were bad on purpose.
Jedi Rocks is my least favourite scene in any film ever
Haha, so adding the Wampa creature in makes BOTH the best and the worst changes videos. Nice!
Did WatchMojo do a best changes list? The only one I'm familiar with was WhatCulture's. And they put the Wampa on that one.
I agree, though. I never had a problem with the Wampa's appearance in the Special Edition onwards. It was a decent costume, and it's not like it was dodgy CGI or anything.
WatchMojo does that all the time. They can't make up their minds.
I remember they did a list of true loves in comics and included Jean Grey and cyclops.
Then the same narrator did a list of love triangles and creatures cyclops and jean grey twice in that list
Watchmojo doesn’t actually make these lists. People post there ideas for top 10 lists, people are allowed to add any content they choose a submission that meets the criteria, and they make the list based on that.
They don’t actually come up with 5 lists every single day that they research and ranked by themselves.
Lucas' explanation for making Hayden Christensen the ghost makes no sense. He said it was because "that was the last time Anakan was good" but (1) he was good in death and (2) that's just stupid
Also Younglings
In a way it makes sense that he becomes his young self because no wants to see a burnt limbless force ghost...
Thats why you used to see a healthy old guy instead of a cripple ;)
Well in my opinion it makes completely sense, if you have ever readed the history of General Grievous taking as an example, Grievous had his original biological body completely destroyed after a battle against the Jedi to save his people. The battle was really part of Palpatine plot to make Grievous hate de Jedi, and it worked he has his body entired destroyed but was replaced by a macanicle corpse that holded his organs, but he was unnable to have feelings anymoreand could only focus on his hate for the Jedi. The same occurs with Anakin in a quite different way, as Obi-Wan says, he is not pretty much human anymore being mostly machine, he is still alive and can fight and sense the force, but he is pretty much just a Chell of power that is used by the Emperor to destroy whoever he wants.
Sorry for bad english....
Rafael Rodopoulos Nope, thats not comparable because General Grievous was never able to use the force.
With Vader's "No" while the Emperor is shocking Luke, they shoulda just kept it at the FIRST "No" that he said, the low one.... that would've just sounded way better than the yelling one afterwards....
2019: Greedo: "Maclunkey"
Dave Kitsune Sebulba said the same thing to Ani in Episode I.
Watch the Star Wars Despecialized Editions. They are a Blu-Ray quality, perfect recreation of the original trilogy, by a huge fan community effort. Jeremy Jahns just did a video talking about them. Look up the Despecialized Editions on TH-cam.
^^^^^
+Happy Accident Productions Thanks man! Will check them out!
do you have links to the films?
Bless you
one question are the visual enhancements are still there that's one thing I liked about the special editions
#1, How could Greedo Miss at that Distance!? Seriously.....
It was most likely a warning shot just meant to scare Han, nothing else. Jabba still trusted Han at that time, he only wanted to get his money back. I highly doubt Jabba would have allowed one of his bounty hunters to kill Han.
It's like Greedo had a death wish or something
Maclunkey.
Because he was shot. Without "Han shot first" it makes no sense.
Greedo hangs out with the stormtroopers. Lol.
I don't understand how people don't realize it's not that Greedo shot first. Greedo never shot at all in the original
SwankFiber 52 Brave of you to say so. I hope you can afford the security, lol
Wow u got no hate in 1 whole year, you, my good man, have achieved the impossible
You’re lucky u don’t taste so good is actually funny wtf why would u cut a joke for a pointless line 😂.
Cuz it is kind of a dick move. Imagine yourself almost getting eaten by a swamp monster and then your master making a joke out of it,it just feels out of place,no matter how quippy you are
@@legojarjarbinks2564 bruh
To be honest I hate the Hayden Christensen as Anakins force ghost I just wish they didn’t change that
Yay
Im not the only one who *liked Christensen as Anakin's Force Ghost*
Yeah same
I too like it. It will probably tie in to The Rise of Skywalker too, with all these rumours of Hayden's ghost showing up in the film.
I always wondered why it was Sebastian Shaw who got replaced and not Sir Alec Guinness with Ewan McGregor. After all, Sir Alec was no shrinking violet about how much he hated "Star Wars" and Lucas. If anyone deserved to be replaced, it was him.
Larry Wilson That’s because Obi-Wan was with the force when he died. There would be absolutely no reason to make him younger. They made Anakin younger because the last time he was with the force was when he was young.
Changes I fine with:
-Boba Fett voice. It fits him and the rest of the Star Wars universe.
-Jabba added. I like the idea that this scene happened without us knowing. I would prefer it to stay out the movie, but I fine with. I just like the idea that this scene happened. That rodian could be some other bounty hunter. I know some rodian bounty hunters look like Greedo but are not Greedo. Adding Boba Fett was kick ass and bad ass.
-Hayden Christensen. I get what Lucas was going with. I fine either way with or without the changes. And I like the new victory scenes added.
I don't know why but the jabba thing always pissed me off but not as much as those damn animals that keep blocking the view
well if it "fits in" they why don't all stormtroopers also have boba fett voices
because they aren't clones. the majority of clones were killed and 90% of the stormtroopers are regular people forced to join the empire
but that wasn't mentioned when this edit was made, that was only recently made a thing.
I say this every time. For us younger folks who watched 4-6 then 1-3 it made way more sense for us to have Hayden Christensen at the end. It makes it sad, and feel as though it's gone full circle. For those that don't like the changes...just don't buy them? Yeah idk why people complain so much when they can just not buy/watch those editions. I like to change it up sometimes so I have 3 different editions but I don't see why people moan so over changes that are easily avoidable.
Wait Vader saying NOOOO in revenge of the Sith is something people don't like?
Christopher Huffman they just don't like it because it's in the prequels
Christopher Huffman no matter what it is, if it's in the prequels it's bad. It can be a bit ridiculous
The problem is, nobody does that. I would prefer, "oh jesus fucking christ, seriously? Did I do that? Fuuuuuuck dude, come oooooooon!"
Reckk is exactly right. I love the no.
They do because reasons. Yet everyone I know that had no Star Wars baggage had 0 problems with it. When I pointed it out they asked what OP asked.
Boba Fett:
He protecc
He Attacc
But most importantly
He escape the sarlacc
Best bounty hunter in the leaguee!!
Cringe
and you go -ACK!!
George Lucas would rewrite "Titanic" so that the boat doesn't sink.
No, in his version, the iceberg would sink first.
Nah mates, he would put lizards on the boat and add a musical sequence with Hayden.
Wabbit Twacks Ship not boat.
The iceberg would be CGI.
Drake Turcotte that’s the joke
Actually stormtroopers are not clones. Clones were phase out within the first year if the empires reign. By the empire strikes back, there were no more clone stormtroopers because of their accelerated aging
WatchMojo needs to get their facts straight.
"all original stormtroopers" as in the first stormtroopers
@@Svnfold The stormtroopers were never clones, not even in the beginning. They were the successors, which is why they are labeled as tk-#### and fn-#### not ct-####.

Karl Hiramanek
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
RaggleFraggle! There's nothing wrong with adding a little extra to polish the movie. Would you rather keep the original VHS version than watch it in 1080p HD?
Karl Hiramanek
Sometimes watching an old vhs is more enjoyable. E.g. Laurel & Hardy always seem better in black & white. The changes in Star Wars add nothing to the experience, only cause confusion between different age groups.
RaggleFraggle! of course not, because who would want them to make any major changes? Like you said, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. All they do is make small tweaks that improve the overall look of the movie. Personally I have no problem with old school tv and movies, I still find the original 1977 Star Wars to look unbelievably good. At the same time, I don't deny that the 2011 special edition makes it look even better.
+Karl Hiramanek, but the parade of CG characters in A New Hope and Greedo shooting first was completely uncalled for and definatelly both detremented from the movie and confused me
"Art is never finished, only abandoned." - Leonardo da Vinci
George Lucas never learned this.
He did. Thankfully, time and technology allowed him to go back finish the art.
Adding Hayden Christensen was not one of the worst, but actually the best thing about the Special Edition. Since I was born in 1998, I saw the prequel trilogy first, and after Revenge of The Sith, I was missing Anakin so much! Luckily, I have never came across the original edition, I watched only the special edition New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. And then, in the final movie, I was awestruck when I saw Anakin again as a ghost, for me, it was the perfect happy ending to the saga!
George Lucas knew that kids at my age are gonna grow up watching Hayden Christensen as Anakin, so it was a very wise decision from him to replace Anakin's ghost with him!
1) Hayden was shit
2) Obi Wans ghost was Alec Guinness. Yoda's ghost was an old Yoda. So it makes sense to have the ghost of Anakin as a younger version. right? RIGHT?
Anakin was the chosen one, so he deserves to be young forever because what he did.
FitnessFan That probably doesn't even make much sense to you.
Connor Webb I'm just guessing, but look. He was the chosen one, he brought peace to the galaxy, while going through a sh*tload of suffering. In my opinion, he deserves to be young forever!
And regarding that Hayden Christensen played Anakin in Episode 2 & 3, including him makes much more sense. But I would have loved to see Ewan McGregor and the Yoda appearing as he did in the prequels as well.
She said that jango was a template for all stormtroopers this made me cringe so much
They are CLONES! All based on the same genetic material.
Most Stormtroopers are not clones.
FluxGigawatt But the million created in prequel #2 were clones; the title said so.
Those are Clone Troopers, mostly phased out after the Clone Wars.
FluxGigawatt I never watched the toon.
the only good changes where the collor effects and the emperor in episode V . and the end song at the end of return of the jedi
+Bartu Muzo man yub nub was the shit
+Bartu Muzo
Really? I thought alot of the color effects looked like shit, especially in a New Hope where everyone looks pink. Unless you are talking about the fixed lightsaber/blaster effects, those were fine.
+Bartu Muzo and CGI yoda for episode 1
+krauser979 and the sound for the stormtrooper bumping his head on episode 4
krauser979
Ugh, i'd rather have the terrible puppet they used for Yoda in Episode 1 than the terrible looking cartoon Yoda. Especially when the cartoon Yoda is so badly added in.
My thoughts on the whole Han shot first controversy, he did shoot first! And on the subject of being ethical, Greedo was going to try to kill him either way that part was clear Han was just smarter and quicker and he didn’t hesitate and that sums up the character well
The nooooo at the end of revenge of the sith was a great meme
The worst part about all these changes is that I didn't even realize a lot of them. The special edition is the version I grew up with. Lucas effectively erased the original version for a lot of younger people.
Okana Adonis yep
Yeah theres loads of changes that are good. But not having the choice isn't right.
WAIT SO IVE BEEN WATCHING THE CGI VERSIONS THE WHOLE TIME?
Don't worry. A fan made the despecialized edition which is hith-quality
Unfortunately, yes. Also unfortunately, same here.
Proud owner of the original VHS releases over here!
Tsukune Aono Get the despecialized edition
***** What about otherwise?
I remember when my parents bought me the DVD set of Episodes 4-6 they were both really confused when Sy Snootles started singing Jedi Rocks. Both of them were going back and forth saying "Do you remember this?" "This wasn't here before"
Ha! Cus ur parents were presented with a masterpiece…. Yourself and others like you just have a steaming pile of 💩 to watch.
Tuemura Morrison’s voice as Boba Fett was done for continuity reasons.
Tuemura Morrison is the continuity error though
It still sucks.
Boo....
The change was necessary, the lines could've been delivered better though.
Except when they made the Clone Wars TV show, Boba doesn't even sound like that. Also, accents aren't genetic; It's still weird to me that all the clones have his accent.
Just be glad it wasn't Jake Loydd as the ghost.
That would be pretty funny, though Jake Lloyd sued acting

I'm a pilot ya know?

The WORST one, (by FAR ) is the Sy Snoodles musical number at Jabba's palace!

2019: Disney + adds Greedo says something close to "malarky" before shooting.
TheHavokWarrior he says “It will be the end of you” in an unknown alien language
TheHavokWarrior it’s “MacKlunky”
It’s also what Sebulba says to young Anakin in Ep.1, in the Market scene with Jar Jar.
TheHavokWarrior Actually, that wasn’t Disney's fault. It was the last change Lucas made before selling Lucasfilms to them. All Disney did was release something that was collecting dust for 7 years.

I think Christiansen's edit in the Return of the Jedi is great as it shows that Anakin died when he joined the Dark Side
+superbradOpig Suuuure because in reality Luke would definitely recognize THAT young brat has his own father right? pfft Not to mention undermine the performance of the actor who originally played older Vader.
No he died on the Death Star after he threw Palpatine to his death. BUT the special editions show Anakin before he was affected by the dark side.
Adrian Langford and still, how would Luke recognize his father's younger self? lol
+Josh Taylor no I agree with a placing a pre-dark side Anakin in RoTJ
+The Rabbid bro he didn't under mine shit Sebastian didn't have any lines.
The only Special Edition change that I didn't mind was actually when they showed the Wampa. The effect looked really good ... Because it was practical! It looked like an actual part of the film.
But yeah, screw the Special Editions. I refuse to buy the Blu-Rays. I've already bought several different versions of the trilogy; I've decided that if I buy the Trilogy again, it's going to be when the pure, unbastardized version is released. Until then, I'm just going to enjoy the fanmade Despecialized Edition.
+spiderleenie I enjoyed the updated visuals to the space battle scenes, the AT-AT battle on Hoth, and the like. The rest of it seemed unneeded.
+spiderleenie preach. ever since they released that, fox's BS excuse "it's impossible to release the original cuts" or something along those lines is just lame. if an internet project and do it, it can be done.
+degree7 yea I agree. There's a few changes that are good, and many that are not. Wish they just kept the good ones!
+degree7 Yeah, that's the one that I think most people agree is better. The sweeping vocals just fits better than some disjointed tribal music when you're dealing with the fall of the Galactic Empire.
+spiderleenie Beside the Wampa, I didn't mind the update to Empire Strikes Back with the hologram of the Emperor, just because of how out of place the original hologram was in comparison to the Emperor when we saw him in RotJ. I know they hadn't finalized the design by ESB, so I understand why the hologram looked the way it did, but I feel the change made at least made some sense.
Some of these aren't even that bad, too much complaining
Right? The wampa was great, changing voices and tweaking faces for consistency is fine, too.
I was 13 and at an advanced screening for IV and people loved it at the time.
So you like the NOOOOOOOO at the end of Reuters of the Jedi.
That no should not be there. Also the voice change for Boba Fett is a logical one in universe since Boba is a clone of his father, so I'm pretty sure he would sound like him when grown up.
I thought boba was fine, the wampa was fine, the song was eh not a big deal, the rest were god awful though.
And adding jaba in was fine too. And these dumbasses don't realize there is more than one of greedo's speecies? People saying why is Greedo in that seen. He's not he's dead could be the same type of alien though
JD Lau So two Rodians that look exactly the same?
5:25
Wtf dude that is the same scream as Palaptines
Rxnys yeah i thought too
They actually did that scream. They just added palpatines scream for the scene
They deleted it later luckily
I kinda think the number 2 was right. They made an entiiiiire trilogy ending with Anakin turning definitely into darth Vader and using the actor as the new ghost of anakin in episode IV made sense. his appearance as the young man with shoulder-long hair was his jedi self, and thus, his form preserved as a "force ghost". Its a fitting theory that a jedi's ghost reflects when he was a jedi, and when he turns into a sith, this image is lost.
But that theory also doesn't make sense. He became a Jedi again in the end, so his Jedi self is his older self. It was much better to see him old but healed.
But the original was, if anything, even worse: Sebastian Shaw was 77 (9 years older than Alec Guinness) at the time, Anakin/Vader was supposed to be 45.
it was stupid. they should have made him look digitally aged. Why not make Obi Wan a younger version of himself too? edit in Ewan mcGregor.
Ergotth agreed!👍🏼
+gold3n rul3- Please shut up, anyone that has an extensive knowledge of the star wars canon and legends knows that Anakin and Darth Vader where completely separate people... when he turned into Vader Anakin had basically died and Vader took over, He is a young ghost because he died good so his force ghost represented the last time Anakin had been a good guy. Not the body that had been Darth Vader.
Full Wompa was great. You mouth madness.
I don't think the Temuera Morrisson voice over was bad.
It's disrespectful to the original actor
Owen Owenator Yet respectful to the canon.
Skywarp / Swedish Seacon yep it makes perfect sense cause Morrison is Jango and Boba is a clone of him so it makes sense
I think Temuera could of voiced the lines with a taste akin towards the original so it could match up better
+Owen Owenator For the sake of canon reasons, it had to be done.
Anyone else like Hayden's addition? Wampa was pretty good too imho.
I liked Hayden better as well
Well, it would make more sense for Anakin to have been as old as he was in his final moments ( which was also when he was last a Jedi ) like Obi-Wan and Yoda. I consider the special edition change to be pretty unnecessary.
@@CulturalMarxist4985 it makes less sense considering that was his appearance after all the evil acts he committed, not before.
@@willycheez7218 Well, he looked like Hayden Christensen when he committed plenty of evil acts also. George Lucas made it so Anakin was a cold-blooded killer even before he turned to the Dark Side. He had darkness as well as light in him, but he looked like Sebastian Shaw at the end when he was least consumed by darkness.
@@CulturalMarxist4985 Sebastian Shaw looks like a proud father looking down on his son, Hayden looks like he's getting ready to murder everyone. I'm not entirely sure How Luke is supposed to recognize Anakin like that either.
How in the world can you put changing Boba's voice on there?! The old voice wasnt that great and Temeura does it so well. Not to mention it makes sense since he is a clone and should have the clone voice.
It's bullshit. The voice was fine and he was never a clone. You think George had that all planned out in 1983? Please. Vader was never even originally Luke's father. Lucas should have hired someone who sounded like a badass. Not some wife beating sheep shagger.
killboggins Dang I thought everyone liked his voice for Boba and the other clones. I sure thought he sounded cool. To each their own i suppose.
I agree with you, i like Temeura voice better.
i agree Temeura is the better Fett and always will be
+ZeStreD Lol, I just posted a comment just like yours a few minutes ago.

6. Changing Boba Fett's voice
7. Hayden Christensen being put in ROTJ
8. All of the added in effects
9. Sarlack Pit
10. The rock in front of R2-D2
I forgot the Jabba The Hut scen
+Brannon H The new ewok song at the end of ROTJ was pretty bad, too.
+Brannon H Both versions of the Jedi Rock song were painful to hear so it's really a lose lose situation.
+Violet Cherry At least the original is funny and endearing in its awkwardness. The CGI one is just crap...
Eh, maybe. But, is it just me or does the original alien singer...thing sound like an Asian lady singing karaoke?
Changing the Luke dialog in the swamp doesn't explain why R2 is still alive. The original lines explain it.
adding hayden christianson was not a terrible addition.
Well, it would make more sense for Anakin to have been as old as he was in his final moments ( which was also when he was last a Jedi ) like Obi-Wan and Yoda. I consider the change to be pretty unnecessary.
Unnecessary and terrible addition have two different meanings.
@@jasondeandulierjr.299 Well, not only does the change not make any sense, but it's also sort of disrespectful to Sebastian Shaw whose role was small enough.
Exactly
From the whole list Vader's "Nooo!" in RotJ beats everything. I loved OT for it's non-verbal context, it just didn't need that addition.
Victory Celebration > Yub Nub
Such a better celebratory song. I Agreed with that change.
+Calum North yep... that is one of the few only good changes. the special addition song is much more emotional and better fitting for a finale ending.

+Calum North I loved the Yub Nub song... But I have to admit the changed tune in ROTJ was more fitting...
Yep absolutely
The fact that you said that stormtroopers are clones proves that you don't know about a single thing you are talking about.
Conner Cummings She said the first batch of Storm Troopers. I assume they were clones since they were former clone troopers
Shanez1215 No she said Stormtroopers. She doesn't know that proves that she doesn't have a opinion by herself and WatchMojo is trying to get Likes by the Majority of Original Trilogy Fans instead of having an own opinion. So they just are super mainstream.

I think Temuera Morrison wasn't a bad change, he has a dope voice
And adding hayden was good too tf
It's disrespectful to the original actors
Owen Owenator fr
Dust because it was him with out being burned
Dust Obi-Wan and Yoda died good. Always in the light side. Anakin went bad at a young age and it took him ages to redeem himself but he never really officially joined the light side again. So his ghost form would be his younger self from when he was good.
"Bring my shuttle" vs "alert my pansy ass shuttle to prepare for my ever so delicate arrival thus proving to all that less is more as Irwin Kirschner spins in his grave". I think that was the changed line from the "special edition" 😡
And the fact that Lucas couldn't have possibly found enough money in his couch to pay James Earl Jones to say one line...
The "Jedi Rocks" portion was one of the worst changes for me. The singer is just waaaaay too cg for me. Good job ruining Jabba's Palace George Lucas
Swoop FPV Not to mention Lakti Nek was terrific! That song had a great beat and matched the mood perfectly, whereas Jedi Rock is cornball and just doesn’t match. Yuck.
Tbh, the ones mentioned after it aside from the Jaba scene were nowhere near as bad, just watch mojo going with the prequel hate bandwagaon
There’s a few changes I liked, the new explosion of the Death Star, the wampa scene, return of the Jedi ending, and maybe the new backgrounds in cloud city? Anyway, I wish there was a way to pick and choose. I’d rather choose the originals at this point though.
Lucasfilms Executive (when Lucas decided that Greedo shot first): You said that would never be in the movie!
Lucas: I am altering the Original Trilogy. Pray I don’t alter it any further.
What's wrong with seeing the full Wampa? I think that that was a perfect change. And who cares that they changed Boba Fett's voice? It adds much needed continuity. I wasn't a fan of his original voice anyway. It's not like they decided to switch out James Earl Jones for Hayden Christiansen or anything.
You got a point there. But what I find disappointing is that they never bothered to fix the Greedo scene in Episode 4 (dialogue-wise) once they reinstated the Jabba scene. Having read the novelization, I noticed that different lines were written there, but I'm guessing those takes were discarded once they set Jabba on the cutting room floor. Why else would we hear Han say "Even I get boarded sometimes. You think I had a choice?" twice?
Thomas Fay also Han calls Jabba a wonderful HUMAN being
I think that line was left in just meant to make it sound ironic and funny in the end
Chris Schrijvers either way I think it sounds pretty funny in the end
ibtrumpet513 that comment was hilarious
Am I the only one who liked the change with Boba Fett's voice?
I agree with you, adds to better continuity. Much like Ian McDiarmid's inclusion in Ep. V in the special edition release, it makes for a more cohesive whole when considering the prequels in relation to the OT.
Lots of people seem to like the change to Boba Fett's voice (including me)
I have no problem with the voice, but that scene in which he says "as you wish" was waaay better delivered by Jason Wingreen. It almost sounds like a "f* you", whereas Temuera Morrison is simply complying.
The problem is that before the second trilogy, most fans DID NOT imagine Boba Fett to be a much older bearded macho man type ,,, I think most fans thought Boba to be a little younger, more menacingly mysterious, a lot cooler and badass instead of the traditional bearded fatherly looking guy (or a clone of that guy) ... it really takes out the cool and mysterious factor for the character ...
Yes.
lukes scream is exactly the same as palpatines from rotj
I like that they added Hayden!
they had also to add ewan mcgregor
Nick didnt you like Ewan?
Caroline Kristiansen no i ment in the original trilogy in the end they had to add ewan like they did with hayden
get out!
RaF KiNs no what you gonna do?
wampa is the only change i approve
yeah, that one made the scene even more suspenseful in my opinion
Axl Vadze the original wampa is just bad. you can clearly see he is not moving at all and his "statue" is just pushed. to not show him at all would be better in this case but i think the new shot looks great. no cgi
Exactly, if it had been CGI, then it wouldn't be good anymore, but the fact that they used practical effects and costumes is amazing. I love the new Wampa scene.
You hipster nerds kill me, always crying about something being CGI yet you're probably running around with the latest piece of technology in your pocket.
actually my phone is really prehistoric and except credit card it is the only technology i have in my pocket...the thing is that cgi just look terribly out of place in 1980's movie. not to mention when it is tweaking with something weve been used for decades (and to worse effect). i understand digital cleaning like removing visible rotoscoping, or adjusting colors because of blue screen etc, but not replacing characters with bad looking cgi
The wampa, Anakin, and Boba's voice weren't bad changes
agree
true its understandable that their voices would be similar
I agree with you on the wampa and boba's voice. Putting young anakin in RotJ was a bad call in my opinion. If he can be young, why does obi have to be old? My main problem with this list is as much as i hate greedo shooting first. putting dumb cgi animals in front of the ENTIRE screen in mos eisley was the worst. I literally can't see the movie.
I don't think anyone justifies Greedo shooting first lol, but Anakin would be young so he looks the way he did before he became Darth Vader.
I think the reasoning behind it is that it was the last time Anakin was officially a Jedi, which is why Obi-Wan is old. I am personally indifferent, but it's just a theory.
What who tf dosen't like when Vader scream's no in ROTS? I love it, Since it's still Anakin who is screaming no after losing his only reason for turning to the dark side.
Everyone hates that shit
