   Yes, but the point is Geroge Lucas had the creativity to make the   
   movies and (at least from a maker's stance) every right to alter tham   
   to his satisfaction. Disney on the other hand showed zero creative   
   ability in the "Sequel Trilogy", although some of the TV shows and   
   other spin-off movies have been better.

   Disney simply took the original movies and lazily rehashed them with   
   extra Politically Correct nonsense. They laughingly called them a   
   "Sequel Trilogy", when in reality they were just lazy remakes.   
      
   George Lucas was already working on his own Sequel Trilogy when he sold   
   out to Disney. His version was a bit better, although reportedly   
   brought back Darth Maul, which is a silly idea, but later re-used for   
   the animated series.

   Depends on which remade movie it is. Some are pure CGI and some are CGI   
   / live-action mix. There may even be a couple that are all live-action,   
   but I've never bothered to watch any of them to know for sure.
