1. As a group, we should all call Walt Disney Pictues on May 21 and 25, and advocate for a proper release of the unchanged versions of the trilogy. Phone number here: http://studioservices.go.com/disneystudios/contact.html
2. Kickstarter! Crowdsource money together for a Criterion release! Look at the kickstarter for the Veronica Mars movie!
I'm new.
Just a few ideas!

Padawan LearnerThe Veronica Mars movie had to get approval from Warner ahead of time before they could do the kickstarter, anything involving someone else's IP would be the same.

It does. Try sending a PM to Silverwook, Anchorhead, or Moth3r.

The User of MathsI don't really notice the difference between standard definition movies and HD movies unless the movies are really in bad shape (aside from the black bars on the sides of the screen). I think DVD quality should be good enough for the OOT re-releases. You guys should save your money. If you guys keep demanding more and more re-mastered releases, you'll be spending money to get a 4K resolution version of the OOT released when those tv's become the standard.

I made a slight error. Disney owns the IP since Lucas sold the company off, yet 20th century fox still owns distribution of the 2 sagas. 1,2,3, 5, and 6 until 2020 and 4 indefinitely. THEY are the ones we should call on May 21 and 25. Contact info here:http://www.newscorp.com/management/20film.html I apologize.
We should also contact them regarding the Criterion kickstarter idea.

I'd gladly spend a few thousand dollars on a properly-restored 4K digital copy of the OOT.
"And I'm shocked at you Moth3r for being off-topic, Because if people off-topic you say "stay on-topic, STAY on-topic, STAY ON-TOPIC", and we are not in the Off topic section of OT.com, now are we?" –pat man
"Look again." –Moth3r

Keep in mind the studios are barely putting out back catalog titles on DVD as it is these days. DVD isn't the cash cow it once was anymore. And Lucasfilm did not release the saga on DVD again in 2011, they actually had existing store stock pulled according to some.
4K is going to be a very tough sell as so many people have upgraded to HD already, and whatever content there is going to have draconian copy protection up the wazoo.

The User of MathsHacock was filmed in 4k resolution as a way to fight of bootleggers. So that could benifit from 4k resolution tv's if that bluray is ever released. Other than that I don't know if many hollywood films were filmed in 4k resolution.

I like this idea- especially doing it on the anniversaries of the film releases.
Would a phone call or snail-mail letter be more effective? (both?)
I've been trying to find a proper mailing address for Disney, but can't find one.

I found a few with a google search and searching through the TOS for Disney.
TOS mail/numbers: 500 South Buena Vista Street, Burbank, CA 91521-7725
(818) 623-3200
(818) 623-3637
Their contact information in the privacy policy adds a mail code:
Disney Interactive
500 South Buena Vista Street
Mail Code 7667
Burbank, CA 91521-7667
United States of America
A google search found mail address:
Disneyland Resort
P.O. Box 3232
1313 S. Harbor Blvd.
Anaheim, CA 92803-3232
Also the numbers in the TOS mentioned that it was for copyright infringement so I don't know if using them for our purposes would get us anywhere.

yavasizadooThanks for that- I guess the Burbank address would more likely reach the right person; I don't think writing to the resort address would be of much use.
Maybe calling the main switchboard # (818) 560-1000 and asking where to send a letter of the type that we want to send? And I guess then also asking if there is a specific person we should be calling to leave a message on 5/21-5/25.
