rogueDesigner » Star Wars: Special Editions 1997
The following represents an exhaustive list of changes between the "original version" of the Star Wars films (as exist on the Laserdiscs) and the 1997 "Special Edition" re-edits. The time code marks are approximations and are read as hh:mm:ss. With the DVD releases of the Trilogy in September, 2004, it appears that his list will need another update to include re-edits, re-dubbing and new shots that are being added to those versions.
