As far as the DVDs go, we lost round 1...

OK, how about this...

there are 60K+ signitures on this site from people who want to see the original trilogy on DVD... As long as they're online they're just a 'virtual demonstration' towards LucasFilm. I'm sure somewhere in LucasFilm someone is aware of this site and what we're asking/complaining about - but lets face it in their eyes and alot of other people, we're (and I'm including myself here) just a bunch of geeky nerds when it comes to Star Wars and these rants/complaints can be brushed aside...

...So how about we make it where our demonstration is more real. Who ever the owener/person who runs this site is, how about creating a downloadable PDF that we can print out and sign, send back to you, then you can then deliver them in bulk to LucasFilm that may even get a fair bit of press coverage... 60K+ signatures is hard to ignore ...if the media got wind of it Lucas would be hard pressed to find an excuse not to realise that there are thousands of fans who really do want the OOT on DVD... especially when faced with a TV anchor asking the question:

"George, we've heard all your statements based on an artist can always return to his canvas and you were never satisfied with the original films. But thousands of fans were. Look, 60,000 of them have put pen to paper from all over the world just asking for a bare bones release on a popular durable format of the original trilogy. Look, 60,000 signatures George. Do you understand?? you ignorant fuck!! what is wrong with you???? will you notice them if i wap you around the head with them??" *WAP!!!*

...I'd say now would be the ideal time to start a paper-based campaign - seeing as the new trilogy DVDs have just been released LucasFilm may think we'll just back down and forget it now, if we do we'll never get it. Basically, we lost the first round but if we hit them with a paper based campaign, they simply can't ignore it and neither could the media, they love an underdog story...

I'm from the UK and i'll gladly pay £2 to send a signed form to the US...

...if anyone bothers to reply to this can they be positive constructive replies please... if you're going to post "you'll never get them, losers - booyah!!!" thanks but i've heard it before and all variations on that theme...

...so how about it???
