This is true. All of the naysayers beforehand (mostly under-13 year old prequel fans) were of the mentality, when they said that we (mature OOT-lovers that we are) should be grateful with what we have yada yada yada. But this is not a consumer mentality - that's the mentality of someone who has been GIVEN something, for FREE (and that's probably what happened in the case of under-13 year old PT fans - from their parents). But we're not getting something for free. We are PAYING MONEY that we SWEATED, BLED, and CRIED over, for GOODS and SERVICES, and thus, it is not unfair to expect a quality product and satisfaction.
But I think what we're failing to see is that despite all the announcements and hoopla, the OOT will be 'Bonus Materials' in a DVD set, not the main deal, and it will probably be treated as such by LFL. Just a bunch of extras.
