its more in the sense that, you guys are already very lucky that he is releaseing them in the first place. Lucus didnt want to but you guys swayed his opinion and changed his mind. in my mind seems to me that he doesnt want to put any more money into fixing something that he only releasing as a favour to the fans. its possible that he did not save a copy of the OOT that was in the SE quality but without the SE scenes. Now the entire basis of releasing the movie is to preserve history, or at least thats what i can extract from jays letter to GL. if you want to preserve history you cant just pick and choose what, you have to include everything, include all the little flaws, along with all the greatness. if i have a 200 hundred year olf book, that i want to keep as part of history, do i take it and just photocopy all the pages and make a new book with photocopied pages so that the book doesnt fall apart, so that i dnt have to worry about the old paper anymore, no i dont, i try my best to keep it good condition by not touching it too much and isolating it i.e. by put it in conditions where it will stay preserved for longer. Now thats what lucas has done for you. he has take the OOT and placed it on a DVD so it wont ruin more over time. i know it sucks that its going to be 4:3 rather then widescreen but so what, logically there is no reason lucas would not release the widescreen if he had it. so whining about it wont do anything.

Again i wouldnt as much have this opinion if it wasnt 2 days after the announcement of the release that fans started bitching that it wasnt good enough. My entire point is that you guys got what you wanted, the OOT on DVD and you still want more. the same way if a kid with his mom at the mall whines that he wants icecream for 2 hrs, then finally his mom gives in and they go to the icecream store and they dont have the flavor he wants so he whines more.

I know you guys are having quams about the widescreen issue. but the bottem line is, lucas is release the OOT on DVD, i think he knows that widescreen is the prefered media. given that knowledge and that he is not an idiot. there are to things that could have happened either A. he doesnt have it, cause if he did he would release it, or B. he doesnt care about the fans. it cant be B because if he did he wouldnt even do as much as he is doing now. therefore it must be A. and he doesnt want to spend the money to re-render the movies from film to computer then spend millions to refinish the whole thing, just the way fans want him to.

vigo, umm i beleive my post count is about 9000 more then you, and that i have been here from the beginning of this site. i think i am pretty well informed about this issue thank you very much.
