I was actually pretty happy to see Ian McDiarmid as the Emperor. I thought having him be the one to tell Vader that Luke is his son was an interesting change. Keeps with the whole grand scheme for the galaxy he started developing in Ep. I.
I don't have surround sound, so I can't report any technical issues with the discs, but just playing through my trusty ol' TV speakers, the opening 20th Century Fox fanfare sounded like ass on ANH. Very tinny. I popped the disc out and put the other two in and they sounded fine. I put ANH back in and it was still crappy. So that sucks. I really wish the deleted scenes were in here, but then when has Lucas ever given the fans what they want? No, much more important to put Gungans in ROTJ. I literally threw my remote when I saw that. Thanks, fuckhead. With all the money we spent on action figures, lunchboxes, and pez dispensers during the 80's, you DO owe us.
