Should be a big week even for non-convention people. IX title and trailer for sure, probably a home video announcement for the original trilogy as well. Excited for IX news and nervous to see what the future holds for Star Wars on home video.

I do hope that Episode IX is the biggest thing that people will be talking about after Celebration is over.

As for an original release, I still don’t believe that Disney will release the unaltered trilogy. I understand that it’s a pipe dream that all of us fans, including myself, would love for them to do, but I guarantee that George Lucas made it explicitly clear in the contract to Bob Iger that he does not want the original versions released. To Lucas, the Special Editions are the “true” versions of his trilogy. It is another denial from George to the fans for an unaltered release.
