    Ah, thanks for clarifying. That’s an interesting position. I never found the light sabers or blaster bolts in the original trilogy to look that bad. And the practical effects, models, and sets, certainly look superior to the CGI sets in the prequels.

    If George had waited another 5 or 10 years it could have been better.

    I’m not so sure about this. I think that the limitations George had at the time ended up being part of what made the original trilogy so good. If George had access to better special effects, would we still have gotten scenes like these?

    Or would we have gotten this instead?

    George being able to do “whatever he wants” does not necessarily lead to the best movie.

    and hate that I can’t find copies without the added crap

    Search up “Harmy despecialized” and “4k77”. There are many other Star Wars fans who feel the way you do, and they have taken matters into their own hands :)
