As in, prequel trilogy? Sorry, I'm more accustomed to PT as the abbreviation.
Wasn't the very first DVD release (2001-ish) sans Christensen? His Ep III look wasn't finalised at that point.
The only other "NT" bit I can think of is the brief Coruscant scene, and that's pretty harmless (in fact it was more EU than NT when the SE first came out).

Yeah, I heard that too...I tought it was common knowledge.
With the original 1997 VHS boxset and a VCR?
Film editors don't receive residuals (i.e. ongoing payments based on non-theatrical income,) so Marcia Lucas would not be due any royalties based on her work anyway. The Star Wars films were not made under any union jurisdiction anyway, so any back end payments - residuals/royalties type (which are paid to writers, actors, directors) - to people would have either been due to star contract leverage (Alec Guiness, and post ESB, HF) or the kindness of George's heart (most others.)
The Marcia Lucas rumor has been around forever - it's an old internet fave and usually starts with "a friend told me..."

I think he was talking about the original SE. But the *really original* theatrical versions did get a limited release on DVD too, only non-anamorphic.
Yeah, I took this to be an interesting "story" not fact, a conspiracy theory for why George messed with the original movies. But regard to her being paid residuals, as far as the rumor goes, I understood this to be related to the fact that the money was earned from an income source made from the time they were married, and not because she was an editor on the film. So that it was part of the division of assets during divorce.
And there's also the Harmy Bly Rays, which I just grabbed and are pretty fantastic.

SE or OT? The only PT stuff in SE VHS is Naboo at the end of ROTJ.

Just get the Harmy 2.5. It's perfect.
no i meant the 97' SE's before that "PT" crap was put in, and i meant dvd as well not vhs. It's not that important since i have my superior harmy SW but still that was the only way i knew SW growing up so since the 2004 additions ruined the SE versions i kinda wish i could have the 97' version on dvd somehow so i could have both options.
I guess if i wanted i could track down the vhs 97' and convert it onto some dvds, i dont how good the quality would be though

I would guess all the PT-esque in quality and thought changes/additions 1997-2004 that makes the OT lose a considerable amount of it's original shine is included in that statement.
Lately fixed by the Harmy editions mentioned in the previous post so we will never have to touch the 2004 abomination again.

Wasn't there a project transfering the SE Laserdiscs to DVD on originaltrilogy.com as well? I guess there were many different ideas at one time or another.
the biggest changes in the original 97' SE's were: the sarlac pitt, death star explosions, the end theme of ROTJ, wampa scene, biggs scene, jabba's band, dewbacks in the 1swt film, cantina scene was slightly different in 1st film, greedo scene. None of that stuff bothered me watching it as a kid cuz it gave the films something new about them which was cool. The 2004 changes just **** all over those good memories though. I got so tired of it i got the harmy SW and gave away my 2004 dvds

And Jabba. The cold blooded gangster that loves to have people walking on his tail.
These are the cover images i chose for my harmy SW by the way:

So much unnecessary money spent when all the true fans want is a straight up release of the originals with the movie posters as covers.
I especially like the ESB one, that's the only Star Wars poster I have on my walls.
I really would like to have this one too:
