So with the new acquisition of Fox by Disney, they now 100% own the distribution rights to the OT right? As in, they can do whatever they want?
Do you think there’s a chance they announce the release of the unaltered OT at Star Wars Celebration?
they could double dip (or triple dip, or quaruple dip, whichever nth dip we’re on at this point) and wait til episode IX comes to digital/UHD/etc next spring and complete the entire saga
or they could release the original trilogy and prequels on UHD this summer or thanksgiving in the leadup to IX.
they may not do anything because disney+. also kathleen kennedy said they’re not touching the first six films at all. (though they have all the necessary assets to un-touch them.)
