Sorry if this is old news (the article says Nov 20, 03). i ran some searches but didn't find it.

Supposedly a new OT is going to be released, with a LOT of changes. Some of the ones that catch my attention are:
"In the Cantina, the Duros (green aliens guys) have been replaced with Neimoidians and some aliens from the prequels have been added."
"The bleeding arm on the floor in the Cantina has been replaced with a non-bleeding arm because it's now canon that lightsabers cauterize wounds."
"The original shooting scene between Han and Greedo has been restored."
"Temuera Morrison's voice is being recorded for use with all the stormtroopers. "
"Some of the lightsaber effects have been redone. The shadows that the lightsabers made on the floor are gone."
"Anakin's spirit is now played by Hayden Christenson with make-up to make him look his age. He looks on proudly at his son Luke with the spirit of Padme by his side."

Has been brought up many times. Only a rumor. Probably bullshit.

There was that picture floating around of Anakin looking decidedly not old as a spirit next to Yoda and Obi-Wan.

We'd better get this locked before we go through all this crap all over again from the dolts and morons who don't know...

Could do a sticky with verified information on the DVDs. But I don't think it comes up often enough to warrant that.
