In my mind it’s so much simpler, though.
When it comes time to release these movies on 4k, that’s when they include the OOT. They could even put it out on regular blu-ray since many people will still not have upgraded their hardware.
Yes, I know, “the SE in 4k will be reason enough for people to buy it.” But that’s where I disagree.
Either way, Poita, I commend your efforts. This is an important piece of film history and the 35mm prints should be preserved in the highest possible quality.
