Really, I don't have a problem with a remake being made. There's certainly no way that a remake will reproduce the success of the original trilogy even if it's spectacular, which based on George Lucas' performance since 1999, I'm sure it won't be. Simply a mass of the latest special effects accompanied by a very weak story.

All I'm really interested in is the preservation of these history making films, and being able to obtain a QUALITY copy of these movies that allows for the most accurate reproduction of the theater experiences of 1977, 1980, and 1983 using currently available home theater technology.

I suspect that those who were not old enough to experience the 1977 release of "Star Wars" really don't appreciate the impact it had on both the movie industry, and the culture in general.

How many people would prefer to have remakes replace "Gone with the Wind", "Citizen Kane", or other classic movies? Or would you like to see these movies digitally altered? And have the original classics removed from availability, or only available on VHS tape?
