The original "Star Wars" trilogy is getting a much-anticipated Blu-ray release on September 16, but some fans of the seminal sci-fi series are not as excited as one might think. According to IFC.com, George Lucas has made some slight tweaks to the movies, and many believe they were better left alone. One of the biggest changes comes at the climax of "Return of the Jedi." As Darth Vader sacrifices himself to save Luke, Lucas has changed it to have him scream "no" when he hurls Emperor Palpetine down a shaft. It won't be the first time that Lucas has fiddled with the franchise. According to the news source, when the first three were re-released in 1997 special editions, he changed a few things around including several small differences in lines and editing. Any fans of "Star Wars" will certainly want to check up on the latest sci-fi movies including recent remake of the classic movie "The Day The Earth Stood Still" and Academy Award nominated epic "Avatar."
