Return of the Jedi DVD Detailed Changes

JSDopefish writes "The DVD news site DVDanswers.com is back with its final installment (3 of 3) of the series by Chris Gould showing in detail the changes between some the various iterations of the Star Wars original trilogy movies. Chris has screen captures from the original, the 1997 remaster, and the 2004 DVD versions, plus some audio clips for you to check out. One of the best lists of changes, mostly because of the pictures. Some of the changes listed here are The Sarlacc monster, Lightsaber consistency (again), as well as new things like even more celebrations added to the end, and an appearance by Hayden Christensen. There is an existing Part 1 covering A New Hope, and a Part 2 that covers The Empire Strikes back as well."

    I will not buy those crapy DVDs, unless Han shoots first.

    Those DVDs are not the ones you want to sell me.

    ...the server which once hosted the site resembles the Death Star at the ends of Episodes IV & VI. Doesn't anyone who reads slashdot read slashdot? Who the fuck submitted and approved this story? Didn't *either* of them think this might happen, just like it did the last two times?

    I mean, slashdotting any random server is one thing; slashdotting the same one three times in as many months is just plain dumb. You aren't doing anyone any favors here. You're gonna nuke his server and waste everyone's time here who tries to visit it and can't see it. What's the fucking point? Anyone could have guessed this would happen. How hard is it to contact the owner and let him know what's coming, or arrange a mirror, before submitting? (Or approving? I know caching is covered in the FAQ but c'mon eds, no one didn't know this would happen.) This is just stupid.
