Actually, the color correction on the entire OT. ANH suffers most from that actually.
Other than the lightsabers why is it so bad? Did they do color correction back in the day when it first came out? Or was it raw?

They chose for a crisp and palish look, to give it a documentary style feel. It's part of the movie that made history, it was different, no one did it like that then. And that historic cinematographical part was ruined. It was no accident it looked like that, it was pure intention.

Jackson made the second best saga of all time.
Lucas made the best saga of all time.
Why should Jackson take over what Lucas made better ?
There are a lot of things I do not like in Star Wars. I could make a very long list. Still it is the best saga/movie of them all.
I find it much harder to find failure (things I do not like) in LOTR (okay, when i watched them for the second, third time etc. I find all the Frodo stuff a little boring - I didn't when I watch them the first time). Seems that Star Wars is just a better story with stronger characters. Jackson is great, but could he has made Star Wars better. We don't know, but I don't think so.
I have just watched LOTR again. Why didn't they just send an eagle out to throw the ring in the volcano ? The eagle could just carry it in a back or something.

No. You should read into the DOP chose the clear look carefully. The only reason they corrected the colors was to make it look similar to the PT, which looks less original.

Oh well. They forgot to call me to fix the pink and Luke's blue lightsaber that looked green.

They should have stopped Lucas to touch it.

Maybe they should have put up one of those little signs in museums that said "Look but don't touch."

IMHO, this is probably one of the situations in which "the originals are always better than what ifs".
But then again, we would never know, seeing that Peter Jackson will probably never make an SW episode or something...

Hehe. In school we are learning about alternative energy. We were going to make simple devices that would hold in heat from the sun, my partner and I shaped our box into the Millenium Falcon! Hahaha.
