I've always wanted to watch these. I had a VHS set that came out before the special editions. I remember getting into an argument with a friend that the original cut of Empire had a different actor for the Emperor.
The original, unaltered cut of Star Wars will get a screening in London in June. Sadly I can't attend 😂

Thankfully there are options if you would like to see the "Hard To Find" original theatrical cut 👀
1080p - No stream, as it's a 38GB MKV 😅

The best way to watch the original trilogy 🤙
This is just the first film, but all 3 have had this restoration treatment. They are available as well on archive.org, and there are torrents out there.
I need to watch these. I don't hate everything they did with the special editions, but the Han/Greedo thing and then basically everything they did with Jedi are just awful awful changes. That music scene in Jedi...
