That should tell you where their priorities lie and how well the PT is going to hold up with these "fans" in the coming years.
Also, I hear all the time how the OT really isn't any better than the PT; it's just our nostalgia that makes it seem better. This is a load of BS. How anyone can look at the OT and not see them as legitimately better films than the PT is beyond me. Are they high art? No. But they're certainly good films (especially ESB).
I don't think the PT has any hope of capturing and maintaining the awe inspired by the OT over the long term. No way.
