That's a legitimately great poster.

EDIT: Oh god I'm going down a Matt Ferguson rabbit hole.

If Jedi Rocks is still in, while Yub Nub is out, then hard pass.

It's insane that they'll put this back out in theaters without removing that mid 90's CG barffest band performance.

There's also new 4k special editions being released. Wonder what's special about them?

why is Obi Wan's force ghost old man Alec Guiness (not younger Ewan McGregor) but Anakin's force ghost is young Hayden Christensen instead of old man Anakin?

i hope Filoni is spinning out a new D+ 5 season show to explain this, it could be called Star Wars: Ghosts

Which version?

Stupid jedi rocks version?
Stupid no yub-nub version?
Stupid "nOoOoOoO" versrsion?

Or a super-stupid version combining the three?

I for one vastly prefer the (latest) special edition of ROTJ over the theatrical version and don't care who knows it.

Like the versions on TV, Disney Plus, etc, it'll assuredly be the most recent versions including Jedi Rocks and the "NOOOOOO"

Always baffled at the people asking about the original edition. You know George would not ever share that version lol

If only they would screen the version that is actually 40 years old.

Is it up to him anymore though? Doesn't Disney own it all now? You'd think they'd milk it by releasing every possible edition of the trilogy and watch fans gobble it all up.

Star Wars trilogy: Theatrical edition
Star Wars trilogy: Black and White edition
Star Wars trilogy: Filoni approved edition
Star Wars trilogy: everyone is portrayed by muppets all voiced by Frank Oz edition
