I was doing some shopping and was looking to get star wars 4-6, but to many people were complaining thats the dvd have been f**ked with by Lucas. So my question which boxset contains all the original stuff from the theatrical release,. here is what one person said

I have to say, I hate this version of the trilogy. I remember seeing the original version as a kid, and I loved it. It was such an amazing experience. There was really nothing like it at the time, and the story pulled me in to such an extent that I saw the movie(s) multiple times and loved them each and every time. It was not only my experience of the movie, but that of my family and my friends as well. It was a shared social experience to see the original version of the story. So what that the special effects weren't perfect. My imagination filled in details that weren't specifically shown on the screen. And, as many times as I saw that story, like many kids, I want to see THAT version of the story. I don't want to see George Lucas's "Oooo, I really wish I could have done this when I made this movie. It would have been so much cooler if...." I really hate George Lucas for mucking up a social icon. I want to see the story that I experienced and loved as a kid, not the version that George Lucas felt compelled to tweak.

I refuse to buy this version of the movie. If George ever decides to put out the "original" NON-special edition version of this movie, I will buy it in a heartbeat. Until then, I'll have to live with the really old and bad VHS copy that I bought as soon as the trilogy was released onto VHS originally.
