George Lucas interviews regarding the tinkering he's done with the special editons on the Star Wars Trilogy DVDs, out on Tuesday (first mentioned here in May, 2000):
It's like this is the movie I wanted it to be, and I'm sorry you saw half a completed film and fell in love with it. But I want it to be the way I want it to be. I'm the one who has to take responsibility for it. I'm the one who has to have everybody throw rocks at me all the time, so at least if they're going to throw rocks at me, they're going to throw rocks at me for something I love rather than something I think is not very good, or at least something I think is not finished.
Update 9/21: The Digital Bits documents the changes in episodes IV, V, and VI.
