Not to be disrespectful, but.....

You're a jerk.

1. NOTHING is being sold here
2. NO copies are made of available retail discs
3. People receiving discs like "Blade Runner" already own the official disc. Moreover, if ANY new Blade Runner disc came out, they would buy it immediately. Legally. In between releases, how can swapping discs of a PUBLIC BROADCAST cause anyone to lose any money?
4. TECHNICALLY, under the law, all fan edits are illegal. If this was actually an ENFORCED law, then George Lucas would not have encouraged it. He would have condoned piracy. This is not an enforced law. It never has been. And if studios were really concerned about this, I suggest they head over to torrent sites and other places where REAL piracy is going on, as opposed to preserving films that nobody would ever see (in that version) otherwise.

Obviously, the colorized King Kong format conversion was a mistake and didn't adhere to the rules. Not my fault. Not most people's fault.

While that may very well be your opinion, the law says otherwise.

They're actually considering changing the policy this year. Don't get me wrong- I'd love to hear a nice stupid response to this, but maybe if you looked it up you could learn a fact or two before starting your next tirade.

Get a life.
