Personally, I think the idea of donating the discs to charity is just dumb. Poor people don't have DVD players. They're poor. They might have a Betamax machine hooked up to their black and white TV, but a DVD player? The food stamps are supposed to be for food. Second, the idea in sending them back is to show Lucas which version the fans want, as per his comment. If we send them to charity, it doesn't send any message, really. That and if we don't like that version, why would we give it to someone else, underpriviledged or not? Would be better to donate the original versions if we donate any at all. That just fits better with our take on things.

Personally, I'm not sure if I'll do anything with the SE disks. I doubt I'd watch them but the idea of sending them anywhere is starting to lose it's luster. Maybe a petition is better than a mass sendback. Less effort on my part, just as good. A mass sendback would only work if enough of us do it and somehow the media gets wind of it. So, ultimately it sounds like a waste of time.

So mine will probably languish in the box just like many of the bonus discs for some of my other DVDs. Content I might watch once and then never again. In this case, just plain never.
