George Lucas says he "redid" his Star Wars movies because they weren't finished: "They're simply yanked out of your hands and put in the theaters"
George Lucas stated that he redid the original Star Wars trilogy because he felt they were not finished upon their initial release. He explained that filmmakers often have to release movies before they are truly complete due to deadlines, but he later went back to make his desired edits. This practice, particularly the changes to the 'Han shot first' scene and the addition of 'Maclunkey!', has been controversial among fans.
