Well, now that I know the Special Editions that are the ones being released on DVD, I'm not so sure. I mean, they were all right, but the whole Jabba-Han scene in A New Hope was awful. George Lucas shouldn't have added that, especially when CG wasn't far along enough to make Jabba look even close to convincing back then. And the worst thing, Greedo shooting at Han first? That scene looked so terrible in the Special Edition, I question the sanity of whoever did it.
Which is why they redid the Jabba/Han scene, among other things. As much as I loved the originals, I'm going to have to say that I agree with the changes.
I can't wait to see the redone Vader/Obi fight. Hopefully they fixed up the black matteline-plagued rancor scene as well, but that would certainly be an enormous feat.
