Do you think this could have anything to do with Harmy’s Despecialized mini-documentary getting taken down last month? After years of existence Fox/Disney/Lucasfilm finally feels the need to suppress it, apparently out of the blue? Maybe I’m looking too deeply but perhaps that’s because they’d be competing with an official release?
I don’t know about the takedown itself, but I’m sure that once an OOT blu ray comes out, they’ll be significantly less tolerant of fan projects. For example, if someone on here reuploads their own version so that they can slightly change the colors (and nothing else), I doubt that they would call that fair use.
