So we are getting our DVD's in unaltered form, but as a last gesture it's going to be a shit transfer that is no better than what has been done by fan editor, and actually may be worse.
I don't buy this whole idea that it can't be done. OCP made a nice transfer anamorphic using elements from the DVD and LD sets. Lucasfilm with all its resources couln't be bothered to make anything remotely like that.
I'm about done with Lucas, Star Wars and all of it. There comes a time when the abuse ends and it is time to move on.
