The screencaps I linked are irrefutable - there is no LD boot that compares.
I would argue the margin is quite notable. It is inarguable that the best
quality version of the original, unaltered, unscrewedup trilogy are the
bonus discs.

Just another fist in the ass from Lucas. The guy has issues. I assume that
the subtitles are when Greedo and Han are talking? Just like the
passive-aggressive Lucas to find a way to make sure that scene is STILL
screwed up. "They wanted the original, well here they go".

If a word was ever coined for a lone man, then dildo was coined for Lucas.
