They said there’ll be multiple surprises.
Three 4k SE discs.
The 1997,2004 and 2011 cut. What a release that would be.
I think he meant Star Wars, Empire and Jedi. And your scenario would never happen. Unless there is an OUT, a multi-version release is inconceivable. Even if we get the OUT, having multiple SE cuts seems unlikely.
I’ve said many times that I would love a three-disc-per-movie release with unaltered, '97, and the new 4k SE (wouldn’t really care if the '04 and '11 versions weren’t included). It would especially make for an interesting collection if, for example, the cgi were given a complete overhaul in the newest version, or if that crazy rumor about Han shooting first again turned out to be true.
But yeah, I’d be equally unsurprised if the '97 version became lost to history just like the theatrical cuts of Titanic and TPM.
