Posted today by Ronald Epstein over at HTF:


"I just want to let you folks know the newest developments
as of today....

One of the magazines I have been talking to has actually
contacted LucasFilm.

It has been absolutely confirmed that these are going to be
the original non-anamorphic transfers used for the 1993 laserdisc
release.

I wanted to post this for anyone out there that is still posting
on other forums that none of the information we have been reporting
to all of you is valid.

There has been a further statement made from LucasFilm as
to the reasons for what they are doing, but out of fairness to
the upcoming article that will be written, I am not going to talk
about this right now. In a few days there will be a story posted
and linked here that all of you are welcome to read. It will explain
the situation in more detail.

In the meantime, I urge all of you to continue mailing, emailing
and phoning your concerns to LucasFilm. Apparantly they are
willing to talk to fans and perhaps some of you may be able to
post a few comments that I am unable to discuss at this time."
