But what if they purposely make them stand out so much with DVD technology that you can't help but think, "Wow. Look at the inferior technology." I mean, that's exactly what they want us to think. This is just a little conspiracy theory on my part, but you never know. Just something to throw out there.

I'm sorry to say, It's crossed my mind also. I hope that's not the case.

Now that someone else is worrying about it, that means I wasn't crazy for worrying about it after all - crap, now I really have to worry about it.

Whew, and I feel better that I wasn't the only one thinking it.

And The Bizzle, I agree that Lucas probably isn't pulling a "nyah, nyah" and actively fighting against us. But a lot of the things he has been quoted as saying about the original trilogy and fans of it doesn't do much to keep me from thinking that at least a side goal apart from appeasing us is to finally prove once and for all that he's been right about his versions. And this is going to be especially true for the younger fans who have never seen the originals before but have only heard Lucas talk about "incomplete films" and his "original vision." I'm sure he'd be thrilled if they were released side by side with his current best update only to have the "younglings" think the whole thing is stupid and wonder what we were complaining about all this time when surely George was right about the newer versions being better. That would be the ultimate victory... not against us but for his cause. So I don't agree that there's no battle, just that George isn't necessarily fighting against us. However, his motivation and goals do oppose us.
