Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope - 10/10

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we all know Lucas changed the movie up and made it look a little shinier. But whatever. It's still the classic we know and love, as hard as that is for some to believe. Get over it. Some flaws/things I noticed for the first time while watching it on BluRay:

-Obi Wan's Krayt Dragon Call was changed yet again.
-Luke has absolutely no mourning period for his aunt and Uncle, (in fact he's more shaken up when Obi Wan dies). Leia has little to no mourning period for the destruction of Alderaan despite the initial shock. Weird.
-Tie Fighters look poorly superimposed - there appears to be a red square around them in certain scenes.
-You can see Darth Vaders eyes behind the glasses. This was particularly disturbing.
-That hole was a SERIOUS flaw in the Death Star. Like. Cover that up with something guys.
-C3PO didn't know who Obi Wan Kenobi was, after all the adventures they had been on previously. Obi Wan didn't recognize the droids either. C3PO also didn't realize he was on Tattooine? The planet he was built on? Or recognize the name Skywalker??
-That one scene where Han chases the Stormtroopers into the room with a bunch of Stormtroopers - They yell something along the lines of "shoot him", and Han shoots one of them. Why do the other 8 run away? That's a bit silly. 8 guns to one guys. Don't run.

No doubt you're right about most of those flaws, but the one that always struck me as completely absurd was the fact that C3PO and R2 acted as if nothing had happened before Episode IV. Until I rewatched Episode III and found out that this matter is addressed, actually.<br /> <br /> Mr. Organa wipes C3PO's memory so as to protect Leia's real identity. And perhaps R2 does remember everything, he just can't talk. As for Obi-Wan not recognizing them, it can be easily — but not flawlessly — explained. He was never very attached to the droids. Plus, C3PO suffered physical changes more than once, and R2 has a similar design to hundreds of other droids.

Man, check out Star Wars Despecialized version 2.5. It's an amazingly made fan rip of the original Star Wars with all the fix removed.<br /> About C3P0 I believe his memory it's erased at the end of Episode III. R2D2 one remains intact.
