A Criterion release would be a good idea for a few reasons; one of them being that then the movies don’t have to be marketed as episodes 4, 5 and 6… they can have retro-looking covers with the classic logos on them. I know Disney has kind of done away with the episode obsession but I still doubt they’d put the classic logos on the cases.
Absolutely. Disney would probably do something like this again (from their 100th anniversary collection or something):-
I’d be happy with regular Criterion branded covers. (but I’d really just be happy with an option to buy the unaltered theatrical cuts from them!)
Send in this scoundrel to do the deal for Criterion, and then just hope the Empire doesn’t alter it after!
