As discussed elsewhere we, the fans, will probably never get a true honest accounting of the making-of process of the OOT from anyone involved... as least so long as they are under the wings of Fox and LFL. But what if.... just maybe... someone 'in the know' could get as many as possible of the players and creators together and record AUDIO CDs of commentary tracks to be played in sync with the movies. These wouldn't have to be released as a 'Star Wars' project at all and shouldn't be in violation of any copyright laws. Hell you could probably call it the 'SW Original Trilogy Commentary Series' as get away with it and noone would have much room for objection.

What gave me this idea was the way the 'South Park' creators released their season one audio commentary- Warner Bros pulled the pulled on the tracks Parker and Stone had recorded for season one so they decided (basically) to just say screw the WB and gave the tracks away as a CD set when you bought the season one DVDs... or made it available for sale on its own.

Imagine- unfiltered Ben Burtt, Ralph McQuarrie, John Dykstra, Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, etc, etc, etc telling their on-set stories and telling what they *really* feel about the films especially considering all that has happened in the past 10 years.

A boy can dream, right?
