Guess we’ll know in the morning. Or not.

“Good Morning America! Our Star Wars announcement has been delayed. Sorry. Anyway, how about that United Airlines ordeal?!”

GMA seems like a weird forum to announce such a thing. Then again, the little commercial hardly hints at the unveiling of a trailer, nor does the language evoking the anniversary suggest a charity announcement. So who knows?

So what’s keeping some of you hopeful about an OOT confirmation? I haven’t seen anything that gives any hope for this.

They like carrying water for Disney.

Because the alternative is becoming a bitter cynical fanboy who sticks pins into a George Lucas voodoo doll? 😉

George isn’t the problem anymore. It’s Disney.

I kind of hope we never get the OOT just so that you don’t get it.

That’s the one big thing keeping me from getting my hopes up.

Disney wouldn’t engage in corporate synergy like this just to sell something that’s partially owned by someone else.

I wonder how many more times someone will post an article about the GMA “announcement” before it happens.

It’s kinda far fetched to think that it’s going to be anything of substance (especially with Celebration in a few days), but I suppose it isn’t impossible that it’s a theatrical rerelease announcement (however unlikely).

Highly doubt it’d be a home video thing.

Most likely a teaser for The Last Jedi will be shown tomorrow morning

You guys have convinced me. It’s probably for Force for Change. Maybe they’ll show a few short clips from TLJ too.

They are much easier to find.

Really? A honest to goodness voodoo Mickey? Do I look in New Orleans square next to the Pirates Of The Caribbean Ride for them? I just get dumb looks when I inquire at the local Disney Store. 😉

Quality voodoo dolls are homemade and not mass produced 😀

I’ll keep that in mind for future purchases. 😉

They mentioned a private screening of ANH at Skywalker Ranch in the FFC video. I do hope an OT.com member can win and confirm just what version it is! 😉

I wonder if I would get kicked out for going “Nope” when it was the Special Edition. Though I would kill to see the archives.

It seems like people are really embracing the new characters. In fact, the big question people ask me now about Star Wars is, “Are Finn and Poe gay lovers?” And really how the f*ck would I know? My second husband left me for a man, so my gaydar isn’t exactly what you’d call Death Star level quality. ----Carrie Fisher

I hope whoever wins is slightly knowledgable about the SE and inquires about the versions. I know if I won and had to watch the SE (which is probably what they’ll screen), I’d be so obnoxious about it through the whole movie that hopefully someone would break and say something about the OOT.

More than likely it would be the 4k “restoration” Gareth Edwards was talking about.

It has to be a version separate from the BD. Why would the main event be a screening of the version you can get for retail value?

Because it’s at Skywalker Ranch?

But yeah, the are also those reports from users here that the Alamo screenings last summer were a new scan with the 2011 changes cut in from the BD master.
