If he releases them.....you will never hear a peep from me about the subject again.

As for the cost of restoring the OOT for DVD release....I remember reading an article a while back which LucASS said that each movie would cost 10 million to restore. So that's 30 million total, no small change. And he said he definitely wouldn't do it cuz he didn't want to put the money into it or the effort.

So....there you have it. But someone had asked Rick McCallum at Celebration 3 about getting the OOT on DVD and he said that the people at LucASSfilm wanted to release it, but LucASS was sitting on it. So he's the one who's holding it up. If it does see the light of day, it will be a cheapie release guarenteed!!!
